Terribly embarrassing post. I agree that Booker been looking funny in the light lately in concerning black wrestlers, but that has nothing do with with his actual in ring career, especially his WCW career. What exactly wasn’t organic about his card placement? Once Stevie Ray got injured, Booker T literally started from the ground up, TV title, US title, then World title. That’s the traditional route you’re supposed to go on, and the most natural star-building one. Just so happens that by the title he won the top title, WCW was in flux and there was no repairing it. That was an awful post.


his card placement was never organic.
which leads me to believe you don't know wtf happened in full detail and you just parroting half truth shyt you heard.

know the whole halves, not the half truth and lies of this nikka booker t.

shyt despicable wtf he did and he did it all on some sellout souled out exclusively shyt.

go look it up or post a rant.
till then i know you don't know the story in full to even speak.
son ain't suffer nuffin but what he made others suffer.
After the fact he souled out too.
when if he never did.
he would have never been made to look like how he did in tinsel titan town much much later.

the shyt is excusable wtf booker t did.
if that nikka was with us trying to win our freedom from slavery.
he would have told on Harriet Tubman and had on a kkk robe and hood while doing so.

This is the same board that voted Cena as overall better than Booker so this shouldnt surpise

Man they underappreciated and tbh it is because they are black.
It's because Booker T went on to become a top 3-5(?) black singles wrestler of all time.


It's like Destiny's Child/Beyonce, Jackson 5/MJ.

i'd say its moreso because they never wrestled together in the WWE.

but yea, being black doesn't help matters.

hes referring to the racial discrimination lawsuit filed against WCW around that time by black wrestlers.

then suddenly, they put the belt on booker t.

Where is your rant of the events tho.
do you know thr precedent of wtf he did set for black performer in the solid sedimentary rock stone we still see viewed to this day. That he actually led to it being systemic and systematic of what we see today.


so do you know wtf happened?
if not,..hush it.
with your errant misinformed critique of my militancy on this matter concerning booker t.
apology of these c00ns keeps them around and leads to the degradation we have to this day.
if you are going about this misinformed you are also part of the disservice as well.

while I disagree with Anilkumar about Harlem Heat being GOAT, they very well may be the best Tag Team of the 90s

I suppose. They were never over like The Road Warriors, but they were the most successful tag team of the 90’s and during the Monday night wars, which was a peak popularity period for wrestling.

The WCW tag team division was much better than the WWF during that period.

The WWF had Owen and Bulldog, who were great, but they fought Phillip Lafon and Doug Furnas for what seemed like 3 years straight. Them and the Smoking Gunns who no one cared about. The Outlaws were over but they were shorter-lived and Gunn was aight in the ring and Road Dogg was :trash: in the ring. After that they mostly used oddball combos of solo wrestlers for a while.

I appreciate this thread OP. And I appreciate you brothas showin' Harlem Heat love in TSC.

Me and my baby brother busted our butts night in and night out to prove we can hang with the meanest and toughest teams in WCW. Even gave Kevin and Scott a run for their money once they came down to Atlanta.

Booker took it even further after I got injured and ain't looked back since.

Let me tell you something brothas, Sister Sherri was the icing on the cake. Made Harlem Heat legit. 110th ain't been the same since her passing. But it's always gon' be on like a steamin' pot of neckbones, SUCKA!

I wouldn't put them in the goat discussion.
but when it comes to the '90s, I have them as the 2nd best team of the decade, behind the steiner brothers.

@Art Barr, I hear you about the booker t/WCW thing, but do you think he has made up for it via what hes doing with ROW??

im not sure what youre getting at there.
destiny's child still gets crazy props, and I believe they broke TLC's record as the highest-selling girl group in music history.
and the Jackson 5 are American royalty.

as far as stevie ray being left in the dust goes, I think its because he was never apart of the WWE Universe.
and booker didn't stay in TNA that long and he was prolly beefing with stevie ray at the time, so they didn't get a chance to do a reunion there.
