Fuzzy Dunlop 528 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) The Booker-T A&E doc was fine, pretty good, nothing ground breaking. That being said, the King Bookah run on Smackdown is legit one of my all time favourite runs of any wrestler in the history of ever (a hot take, perhaps?) so it brought back memories of that period and also reminded me of Harlem Heat shit talking into the corner cameras in WCW which was always bad fucking ass whenever they (or most other people) did it and that's definitely not a hot take. Hogan was an...interesting participant in the documentary, I guess. Edited May 12 by Fuzzy Dunlop 7 Link to post Share on other sites

Curt McGirt 13,787 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I watched the Booker doc just an hour or two ago. Yeah, it didn't say much, but Book is forthright about his past (what a sad deal with his mom) and it's a reminder of just how talented he was and is. From the Best-of-7 with Benoit he was one of the most solid and popular US workers in any federation: looked cool, had great music, could talk, cool offense, could do super face or arrogant heel, could do comedy, whatever you needed from him he had it for you. I didn't know about Austin getting injured but even that couldn't stop him. They brought up both Hog Wild and the verbal slip-up so nice that they didn't cut anything.

I'd hope they tone down the set for a MSG show. I’ve been to the majority of the recent MSG shows and, nope, they use the standard set. It’s incredibly disappointing. Then again, post renovation MSG looks the same as any other arena on the inside nowadays anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Curt McGirt 13,787 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 They showed Book doing something with a bottle of Japanese shampoo? I never saw it before. There's A LOT of Book in WWE I haven't seen -- like the HHH feud. Link to post Share on other sites
