Booker T On What Stopped Him From Quitting WWE In 2006
When Booker T joined WWE in 2001, one of the first feuds he had was with The Rock. The two sparred over having somewhat similar gimmicks and similar finishing moves and The Rock took great pleasure in dismissing Booker’s previous accomplishments in WCW.
Rock even went as far as to ask Booker “Who are you” while Booker had the WCW Championship draped over his shoulder. Booker was asked if he took offense to The Rock deriding him when he joined The Chris Van Vliet Show.
“No, I’ve never been offended by anything I’ve done in wrestling because it’s wrestling. It’s not real; it’s what we make it. We’re entertaining fans. That’s part of his character,” said Booker.
