Booker T gave his thoughts on various topics on his latest Hall Of Fame podcast.
During it, the WWE Hall Of Famer talked about his belief that wrestlers need to show more respect:
“The point is the respect thing. Respect. Meaning somebody comes and tells you something, and you just blow it off like it has no meaning. And like the guys coming telling you that for no reason, it’s a reason why he is telling you that because he’s trying to protect the business. I think that’s what the question was more so than anything. So yeah, I believe in respect. I believe in having genitals in the locker room. I believe in the guys who came before me, the carpenters who went out and did it. And the blueprint, just like at a Reality of Wrestling show, if the first match goes outside those four ropes, he’s got a problem with me alright because it’s the first match. We don’t need that for the first match. It’s a reason why we build the show to the main event. When you have everybody going out on the show thinking they’re having a WrestleMania match when they’ve never been to WrestleMania and probably never will, there’s no real reason for it. More than anything, it’ll be a time and place for you to go out and have a certain match. But during three Canadian destroyers for no reason and a powerbomb just to have a kick out just this is awesome. It’s ridiculous. And that’s what wrestling is today.”
