Booker T is without out a dobut one of the greatest wrestlers ever. But this King Booker gimmick is just so stupid! This makes him look like a huge jackass. I just hate the damn thing. This ain't the Booker T I grew up watching. Yes I know wrestling is fake but I hope Kane kicks King Booker's ass this Sunday in what I think will be a good match. Amen. Heel Booker is okay. King Booker is not. Just take him back to the kind of badass heel he used to be when he was in heel Harlem Heat, have Sharmell stay away from TV altogether (she annoys me almost as much as Melina's shrieking.), and just let Booker kick ass like we all know he can when he's used right. At this point, he's not even King Haku 2.0. He's so bad in this 'king' gimmick, that Haku actually was more entertaining in it.

I gotta say, I laughed my ass off at the "King Booker & Queen Sharmel at the Movies"... Seriously, I haven't laughed at something that hard in awhile... That being said, I love King Booker... Did anyone notice that they actually referenced his old "Booker T and Goldust at the Movies" Scorpion King skit from a few years back in this one? "And I've got this axe too!!!" was a direct ripoff of when he said "And I've got this sword too!" in the old one...

Hey sport, just because you're over 10 and you know wrestling is fake, and you even like heels from time to time, STILL doesn't make it bad when you dislike a heel. And don't give me that old "the kind of hate that makes me want to change the channel" excuse.
You hate the heel. Long live the heel!
And imagine how huge a reaction he'll get when he turns face again!

SILENCE, ROGUE! King Booker was great during his reign as champion but now it seems kinda pointless when he's not on top of the food chain.

Booker T is one of the sloppiest wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots.
But he is f***in' magical on the microphone.

The King Booker character is brilliant. You have to read between the lines and see how he plays the English King and as soon as Teddy Long puts him up against....THE UNDERTAKAH!....he suddenly reverts back to his old ghetto self. It's genius

Booker T is one of the sloppiest wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots. But he is waxin' magical on the microphone. I agree. I remember when people would bash Triple H's ring work and then in the next breath say Booker was a great wrestler. Excuse me? Booker is a decent - good worker, but he sure in the hell can't work like Triple H. The King gimmick ultimately saved Booker T's WWE career from being a joke. He was a main event jobber who only got a program if a new guy needed a rub to the mid-card or they needed to fill some space on a PPV. I enjoy the gimmick and was thirsting for him to take the title off of Mysterio, but now he's just kinda lumped in with the other guys who are simply "watchable" as opposed to "a reason to watch."

Bring back the Booker we ad around WM19. This King Booker nonsense is garbage.

The king booker gimmick has run it's course. I still like it but it's starting to get stale.
For old times sake, ALL HAIL KING BOOKAH!!!!

I like(d) King Booker much better than "normal" Booker T.
That's not saying too much though, as I've never understood the appeal of Booker to begin with...
But at least the King gimmick was played well enough. Too bad the main event scene at the time wasn't exactly breathtaking.
Kudos to Booker T for making the gimmick work better than expected, but the "all hail king bookaaah" thing has now got stale... especially because the King's nowhere near the top at the moment.

I dunno if I like King Booker better than old school Booker T, but he has made the gimmick work and has provided many good moments out of it. Plus he did get a run with the title and won a few big matches, so obviously they're not burying him.
Besides, King Booker is way better than GI Bro.

All hail King Bookah.

I like heel Booket T during his feud with Benoit just as much as Kind Booker. I really can't choose one as they both have him yelling at Teddy Long every friday. "IT AIN'T GOIN DOWN LIKE DAT, TEDDY!"
