"wishing their mom was there" when Booker and Stevie won the GWF tag team titles reminds me....Grey Pierson did an angle at the time when they invented a kayfabe mother who needed surgery, necessitating the Experience to sign with Gary Hart. Watch and cringe... m.youtube.com/watch?v=BmQQ9xzxxA4

The tone was just so different. Wonder if that supposed heat between Vince and Randy still exists? I’ve never believed the stupid ass Stephanie rumors, but Vince brought back everybody at least once and Macho never came back even to have a farewell run. Imagine how cool it would have been to see Macho give a HOF speech or make an appearance at WrestleMania. Nah he did something worse than that in Vince's eyes. He joined WCW. As for the tone, you can't win. With the deceased, you either should not speak I'll of the dead, or don't deify them because they are dead. If they gloss over Warrior’s past when his episode comes up soon, I know that many people are probably going to be pissed off.

Bruce Prichard said he has the Kane mask on his podcast. Interesting. So either Bruce doesn't have the original mask or WWE knew where it was and weren't actually looking for it. Bruce has a Kane mask, but not the original apparently. I'm pretty damn sure he said he had the original, but I'm not going through the last few months of podcasts to confirm it.

Booker playing one of the WWE video games with his kids was adorable. So nice to see him overcome the hardships he went through earlier in his life.

It can't only be because he died, or WWE was desperate for a legacy icon that wasn't Hogan (never mind that what UW said was just as bad, if not worse. Or is it that the Hogan incident got more mainstream press?) I wonder if Vince felt guilt over him dying when he came back for the HOF and this is why he feels this need to protect the character and honor it? Who knows.

Remember only the IWC can call Nash "Big Lazy"!!!!! But really, yeah. Moreso that when the big stars DID come in, most didn't get treated much more seriously than the Alliance did, and/or were just there to eat Pedigree.

That was a great documentary, especially seen as I didnt know much about Booker T, so it was a great story.
Genuinely enjoyed that. Wasnt perfect, but it was a good watch.

lord, i HATE vince russo's silliness. shit is so embarrassing and took away from booker's night Booker only had his night because of Russo. Hogan refused to not win the title that night and if it wasn't for Russo going out of his way to do the "Screw you Hogan" story/shoot, then Booker wouldn't have gotten the title.

Watched the Booker T episode earlier today, my favorite one they have done so far. Booker has one of the best redemption/success stories ever. He not only is one of my favorite wrestlers, but one of my favorite people. I am fortunate enough to have seen his successes in both WCW and WWE. I started watching wrestling when Harlem Heat took off as tag champions so I almost feel like I saw him blossom as a wrestler from beginning to end.
