On one hand, I was :lawd: at two of the arguably GOAT black wrestlers going at it in the spotlight for one of the most prized championships in history. That's something that, sadly, hasn't been replicated since. On the other, you've got Booker T booked as some second-rate WCW lackey with the stupid racial undertone of him being the resentful, hard-working field nikka towards his lighter and seemingly more prevlieged counterpart. :snoop:

Felt a way about this promo when I watched it live when I was 11. Imagine yo favorite wrestler coming back and making fun of another brother for his dialect. I started laughing and my pop gave me an impromptu Malcolm x sermon in front of all my cousins and sonned me to Bolivia :snoop:

You are both aware that this is a scripted children's television show, right? This is not reality TV let alone real life as they are actors. :what:

Is that promo any worse than this one from Shelton Benjamin. But let me guess Shelton Benjamin has two black parents, whereas The Rock only has one so it's different. Even though they're both acting. But that's besides the point, WWE superstar's at that time were talking down to all the WCW castoffs like they were all a bunch of scrubs during the Invasion storyline.

C00n shyt? What c00n shyt? You got Booker and Rocky confused...because Booker been tap dancing for years...even tried to be the Rock in WCW. He has no shame..do anything for a dollar(especially when he let Flair and Cripple H basically call him a monkey to his face for over a month...Kofi Kingston ain't no better..dancing it up every fukking week and now he wants to be a upstanding black man....lol. The guy who faked his voice to try to come up and was a tag team specialist for his whole career who got saved by Big E and big head Woods 3 years ago. That's a tap dancer. A c00n. A nygga who couldnt make it on his own...opposite of the Rock basically.

The Rock went at Booker just like he went at Rikishi for being fat..for Cripple H for acting "queer"..basically called Chyna and Stephanie worthless sluts...called Kane a retard..called Big Show slow..called Jericho a overrated jobber who was losing to a cruiserweight nobody while Rock headlined WM 15..called Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, and X Pac f@gs on LIVE television.

Dont like it? Dont watch it..go watch Golden Girls..little ROH matches, or those weak nyggas from ECW who needed stunts instead of having ability and being legit stand outs.
