I like that anything Booker T says already sounds like a catchphrase, even if it's something he's never said before.

I think Booker T is always welcome on WWE TV, whether it be in ring or on the announce table.

Great year for Booker T. I honestly think Booker T is the best commentator in WWE right now "Wade Barrett with the sideslam, shades of...BIG BUBBA ROGERS!"

I'm more up for him staying in the ring full time than being on commentary.

He is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the greatest commentator of our generation.

He is commentary gold and I really like his feud with Rhodes right now.

He's a welcome presence in any way they use him. It's strange watching him wrestle because of how slow and blown up he is, its hard to tell if he's selling or if he's legit about to pass out sometimes. He's been one of my favorites since 1996 though, there's always a spot for Booker T in my eyes.

Love Booker. His Matches with Rhodes have been great

His commentary is straight hilarious. His voice, mannerisms, the things he says, all of that is hilarious. Honestly I love hearing Booker on the mic because regardless how well he is going play-by-play he's hilarious. You have Cole and the others for the details but if you want something funny you get Booker T. Every once in a while he'll say something that's notable as well. He's not bad.
His matches with Rhodes have been good but they could be better and it's used to propel Booker and give him a good send off. Rhodes will be using it as an ok feud and to be with someone who was actually a multiple time World Champ that's not Orton so it'll be good for him. After this though Cody needs to get into a real IC feud. I mean a real one. He's not doing anything with that belt.
But yeah Booker's been great this year. Love to see him back.

Bokker's commentary is the greatest. Right now, he's the only one who actually seems like he gives a damn about their commentary, plus, he actually brings something to the table.

Well, I think he's GREAT in the announce booth. I think people have gotten so used to guys with no personality that people just don't get it, but I grew up with guys like Jesse Ventura, Randy Savage, Roddy Piper, Vince McMahon, etc. in the announce booth who were all very animated and had a lot of silly phrases just like Booker T and I think it makes the show a lot more entertaining. It blows my mind that so many people prefer generic, blandly handsome announcers like Josh Matthews or Todd Grisham.
I think Booker's time in the ring has passed though. It was fun seeing him in the Royal Rumble, but he looked like quite a "special attraction" in there against Cody Rhodes last night.

I know most people hate it, but his style of commentary entertains me.

Commentary - Surprisingly entertaining. Him and Josh are the only people that make Cole bearable.
In-Ring - He's a notch better than Jerry Lawler returning to the ring, but only a notch. Once he became a commentator he shouldn't be placed in any major fueds, much less one with the current IC champ. Still, it's better than Lawler getting WWE title shots and it gives Cody major heat so as long as he doesn't go over Cody when it counts...
He's still a much better wrestler than some Superstars though. I just would rather him stay away from the ring because he's nowhere near as good as he was a decade ago.

Did we all see different matches? Booker was totally gassed against Cody on Monday night.
That said I love him on the announce table.
