That grocery store was hilarious.

I think what Book said is overlooked. The fact him and The Rock never worked a house show AND put on that Summerslam match speaks volumes to their chemistry. That match was THE main event of the card, even though it technically was Angle v. Austin.

Well it was the mainevent, rock/booker went last at SS.

Booker is so underrated and so under appreciated!! That mans style is one of a kind, every move Booker does seems like He himself created. Tremendous mic work, amazing Charisma. Could play any character and work with anybody. And on top of that, he’s a gem on commentary. #BATISTAISDOWN

Classic mix moment 😂 “BATISTA IS DOWN!”

Two of my of my all time favorites.. It was everything to me when Book and Rock beat up Christian and Tyson on RAW.

That Summerslam match was a lot better than Booker remembers. It was about as a perfect as a match between those 2 could get. And also the only match in wrestling history to feature the 3 black WCW champions: Booker, The Rock, and a run-in by Ron Simmons as Faarooq chasing Shane.

Booker T was the best in WCW his king booker scene I did not really like but I watched him come up in WCW and from 98 to 2000 in WCW he was on fire 🔥

Man this dude(booker t ) was smooth as silk in the ring. When the top guys speak high of him Austin, undertaker, flair, Rock, Bret hart that’s all you know well done sir and salute!!!!

Imma have to disagree with Booker. His match where he was defending Charmel from Kurt Angle was fire. I remember watching that & thinking it was a perfect wrestling match & told a good story.

It did tell a good story but it's overshadowed by the build up and the I Quit Match on that same Judgement Day PPV. Also, it felt odd for Booker to win the bloodfeud with counter pin to the Angle Slam.

That was an incredible match

As a Houstonian, Booker brought a lot of pride to myself. Rock has always been my favorite wrestler so I remember when Booker came over to WWF how excited I was at Rock and Booker T working with each other.

We all know booker t was one of the best, and underrated wrestlers of all time in any company. Should have had way more title runs, or at least longer title runs. Could've have held any belt and wouldn't have looked questionable on him. Haters going to say what ever, but few men carry the mic as well as booker t also. Booker t gonna always be seen as a legend.

Booker had a superhero physique and was so light on his feet. The scissor kick immaculate.

It kinda hurt Book losing 3 straight pay per views to Rock and Undertaker, Rock at Summerslam and Unforgiven, Undertaker at No mercy. I understand a little why he lost to Rock both times since the WCW title was on the line and they needed 1 title on team WWE, but he should've beat Undertaker even by disqualification. WWE didn't book him properly ( no pund intended ). Book should've been facing Austin at Wrestlemania 18.

Book started out hot when he first appeared and slammed Austin through a table and his initial match with Rock was real good. They never really knew what to do with Book to utilize his full potential he was so over when they turned him face in 02. They should have pushed him as a top baby face along with RVD.

Lol wow man

Booker T was the Rock of WCW. WCW just didn't have any fucking clue what they had. Almost every wrestler that came to wwf and kicked off the attitude era was wcw guys that wcw just threw away because they were so focused on the has been egos they signed to outrages contracts that made no sense.

One of my favorite matches of all time. Classic one of the all time greats. You guys are legends to me and inspiration to me 💯🎯🤘🏾

They should've done a People's champ vs people's champ

Booker T vs The Rock one more time!

Even speaking on the seperation of wrestling. WHY was there never or was there a angle drawn puting Booker and the Rock together,, like the Mega-Powers? WCW champion teaming with WWE Champion watching each others back mpt so much a tag team THEN the heal turn from either side.

I just finished watching that Summerslam match. Maaaaan!! It was great!

Harlem heat 🔥 lol booker t been the shit. And he had style

Booker’s bulging eyes look said so much. He didn’t have to say a word and we got it 😂

In my opinion, Bookers “ WWE moment” was supposed to be him winning the World Title against Triple H at wrestlemania. However the powers that be, for some reason took it away from him. Regardless Book had a fabulous career to be proud of

The Rock versus Booker T far well match💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Booker T Legend King Booker/ King Bookah King of Smackdown word!!!

The rock vs booker t for the wcw championship is one of my all time favorite matches

A lot of people assume that when the WCW talent came over that there was a lot of heat amongst the boys and girls in the locker room, nothing could be further from the truth. A lot of the WWE's top stars wanted some talent to come over so that they could get some fresh matches with people that they never got to work with along with some fresh storylines. If Sting had not chosen to burry himself over a comment that The Rock made to everyone, we could have had Undertaker VS Sting for a few months.

Great, now I got to look at it.

their summerslam match was better then the 1st Goldberg vs Brock match back in the day. this rivalry was most def one of my favorites as a kid. I'm rewatching all of this with my son now. he's loving it

Man it would have been cool if when the Nwo came over if the nation of domination would have been revamped to include the rock booker T with Farooq and Bradshaw. They could have feuded with the nwo

I wished Booker won the Summerslam match. Booker's summer of 2001 was great. After Summerslam, he was made into a joke. Getting beat up in the supermarket by Austin. Wishy washy tag run with Test. Feuding over a shampoo commercial with Edge. Being nWo's stooge. Parody tag team with Goldust. Glad to see the character change with KINNNG BOOKAH in 2006. Well deserved WHC reign. You put that work in late 05 with the US title feud with Benoit to kick it off. I smelled a heel turn coming but it was done very well. Predictable done RIGHT.

Love Booker T so much. I like every other 5 year old called him Booger Pee, but I loved him. FIVE TIME!

Yep. Book and Rock could have been like Rock and Austin.

I gotta agree with Booker t on this one in wcw Booker t at one time objectively speaking was the single best worker in the entire business I’d say 98/99 Shawn Michaels and Bret hart included….classic matches with Benoit … Bret …Finlay…. Etc as a fan it’s kind of disappointing that Wwe watered down his in ring style and made him strictly a entertainer which he was very good at as well just a shame that people who didn’t watch wcw don’t know just how good he was in between the ropes

Booker T and The Rock had a pretty good feud in my opinion. It lasted 2-3 months, the matches were all good, and it led to Rock/Jericho and Booker teaming with Test (and Shane McMahon) which was an underappreciated angle in my opinion. It should be noted that Rock didn't really work many house shows during this period of his career. He worked both Raw and Smackdown every week, and occasional house shows, but his opponents were all pretty random according to Cagematch (Rock/Austin teaming up against Angle/Jericho sounds INCREDIBLE btw). I think Booker T is being too hard on his Summerslam 2001 match. It was good, but at the same time, this was an era where cards were STACKED, and he's probably remembering Austin/Angle, Edge/Storm, BoD/DDP&Kanyon, and RVD/Hardy. Booker T generally had the better if not best matches on WCW cards, and I wonder how he felt getting to WWE and having to follow the likes of Edge, Christian, Jericho, Rock, Austin, Angle, Benoit, Undertaker, and the list goes on and on. I know Randy Orton has made jokes over the years about having to follow Shawn Michaels so many times, and how he'd just get deflated watching Shawn's matches steal the show, and him come back to gorilla and shout "Top that!" Wrestling is something else lol. As for Booker T being more of an entertainer in WWE than wrestler, I don't totally disagree, but I also think that just proves how stacked WWE's roster was at the time. Booker T had some incredible matches with Angle, Benoit, Guerrero, Jericho, Christian, and Triple H, but his matches with John Cena, Batista, and Undertaker shouldn't be forgotten. There's also Rey Mysterio, and NOBODY has bad matches with Mysterio. I don't think anyone doubts that Booker T could go in WWE, but ultimately I think his spinneroonie, promos, and character work will be what he's most remembered for. The guy's HILARIOUS, and people treasure things that make them laugh. That's one reason why Booker T and Goldust will go down as one of the greatest tag-teams ever, and one of the best runs from either guy.

I watching the A & E biography on Booker T and the interesting thing is how Bruce Prichard compares Booker T to The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Undertaker

Booker t is the goat

I wanna see booker talk 2 Shannon Sharpe I think that shit wud be dope

Booker maybe felt like Rock didn’t respect him

I may be a little biased..... but I think Booker was a better performer than the Rock. Book had more tools in the bag

Considering they didn’t work together much, the Summerslam match was great. One of Rock’s best imho. I remember being a bit disappointed at Book dropping the title, despite being a massive Rock mark at the time. It’s not too late to do something again though. Everyone keeps saying Dwayne should get involved with the Bloodline angle, but how about Booker gets involved? He did have a hand in training the Usos back in the day afterall. Check it out. Book cuts a promo on the Usos saying how disappointed he is that they disrespected the guys who put them on. He knows how Roman feels to be dissed by the guys he nurtured and mentored and brought into the Island of Relevancy. Then Rock comes out and says Roman has forgotten who paved the way for their family back when he was just a kid. Booker, Roman, Solo vs The Usos and The Rock @ Survivor Series! Book it WWE!

WCW would have tagged them up. After a good rivalry. That would have changed wrestling for African Americans forever….. depending on the gimmick of course.

Booker is far too humble to be as quietly great as he was throughout his career. Of all the WCW guys who came over Book was one of the only guys Vince couldn't overlook, and Vince really enjoyed burying WCW guys.

Book, U didn't kick out after the turn buckle and DDT? What the fuck happen. Looked like someone kicked the rock of yah????
