So I haven't watched TNA in quite awhile and when I stopped watching weekly a little under a year ago, Booker T seemed poised to possibly be given a legit shot and become a champion. Then they gave him the whole "Legends Title." First off, I just want to say that's the most rediculous name for a title ever. And back then when Booker would defend it, he could talk. Which brings me to my question...
WTF is TNA doing to Booker T? I mean EVERYBODY saw him as King Booker in WWE and he debuted in a somewhat simlilar fashion in TNA. Not quite King Booker, but when he turned heel after his debut, it was a King Booker type of character. He spoke with poise and you could understand what he was saying. When in holy hell did they make Booker T somebody who couldn't speak full words and just grunt a lot? In no way is this racial... but the mofo sounds like a gorilla or an ape. It's rediculous. Did he get hit in the head with something and it's part of a storyline/character trait where something scrambled his head and couldn't talk anymore like a normal human? When did this happen? And why?
I was never a huge Booker T fan when he was in the WWE. When he was in WCW, nobody wanted that guy to win the WCW Title more than I did though. I loved Harlem Heat and it was obvious Booker was a breakout star. Now I'm still not a huge Booker T fan, but I respect everything he's done in the business and I truly believe he is one of the Top 50 guys in history to lace up a pair of boots. But what gives with this gimmick where he can't talk? Doesn't Booker deserve more than this B/S gimmick?
