 ..BADLY. Even Rotten Toothed Limeys realize he should be champ.

3 years too late. He's got a bad back, looks uninterested, and has no more
fire left in him. That doesn't mean it won't happen since he signed a 2
year contract exension a few months ago but that's just my opinion. I hope
he doesn't get any higher on the card.

 Interesting Booker T moments in WWF/E:

* Fight with Austin in a supermarket.
* Skits with Goldust.

Eh, I was never a fan of that one. It mainly only reminds me how far
he's fallen since his peak in WCW, and sometimes entertains me to see
if he will mess up and say "five time" too few or many times.

"Can you dig it, SUCKAAAAAAAA" is everything a catchphrase should be:
it works as punctuation to whatever else is said in a promo, it
encourages crowd participation, it can take on a variety of effects
depending on intonation and timing, and it represents the kind of
confident braggadoccio that gives the impression that the speaker could
be a legit tough guy.

It could easily have been another "If you smell what the Rock is
cookin'", if Booker T hadn't been depushed for whatever reasons (wasn't
made a star by WWE, failed to say hi to Droz once, skin too dark,
etc.)...

I especially liked "Can you dig it... SUCKA" when there was a long
enough delay that the interviewer (or whoever) thought Booker had
walked away--then came back on camera with the "SUCKAAAAA" bit.

I always thought it would have been cool if they had done something
like:

Booker T: <cuts promo> Now can you dig THAT?

<Booekr T wanders off>

Interviewer: Definitely gives <Booker T's opponent> something to
think about. We'll be right back with <whatever>

<Commercial starts>

<After just one 30-second commercial airs, Booker T comes back on-screen>

Booker T: SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­A!!!!!!!!

<rest of commercial block>

I also liked "Don't hate the playa; hate the game" (especially with
the implications with HHH being "The Game".

"5 time" grew on me, and it ties in with the spinaroonie (since he
looks at his five fingers before doing the move) but I wouldn't miss
it if it left.
