Can you dig it? Booker T is much more than a WWE Hall of Famer, hes an 11-time WCW Tag Team Champion, a six-time World Champion, winner of the 2006 King of the Ring Tournament and the man responsible for popularizing the word, Sucka! in sports-entertainment. He also bears the distinction of holding the WCW Heavyweight Championship when the promotion folded in 2001. From the moment he stepped into the WWE ring, Booker T has Spinaroonied hisway into superstardom, tangling with a whos who of squared circle greats, including Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, John Cena, Triple H, Randy Orton, Batista, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Christian, Mark Henry and many others.In 2001, as a member of The Alliance, he cost Stone Cold the Undisputed WWE Championship. In 2002, as a tag partner with Goldust, he launched one of the most outrageously funny tandems in WWE history. And in 2006 as King Booker, he delivered whats widely considered the best faux British accent since Kevin Costners turn as the Prince of Thieves in Robin Hood.Booker T left WWE in October 2007, but returned in 2011 as part of the biggest Royal Rumble in WWE history. Soon after,the veteran grappler joined the announceteam on SmackDown as a color commentator, and appeared as a trainer on USAs hit reality series WWE Tough Enough. Then in summer 2012, the six-time World Champion added yet another tremendous honor to his resume when he accepted the challenging role of SmackDown General Manager. In Summer 2013, Mr. McMahon shook things up on the blue brand, and replaced Booker as head of SmackDown.No matter what role he finds himself in nowadays, though, Bookers legacy was forever cemented when he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the class of 2013.
