Bio

Booker T has an illustrious and decorated history with WWE. He is a six-time World Champion, winner of the 2006 King of the Ring tournament, as well as the holder of numerous other prestigious championships and honors.

From the first moment he stepped into the WWE ring in 2001, Booker T has Spinaroonied his way into Superstar elite status, tangling with a virtual who’s who of the squared circle, including Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, John Cena, Triple H, Randy Orton, Batista, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Christian, Mark Henry, and many more.

Some of the most memorable moments of his WWE career included his association with The Alliance, costing Stone Cold the first-ever undisputed WWE Championship against Chris Jericho, battling Austin in a grocery store, a partnership with the outrageous Goldust that was as hilarious as it was unlikely, and his outspoken reign as King Booker.

The ultra-charismatic Superstar returned to WWE in 2011 as part of the biggest Royal Rumble in WWE history. He then joined the announce team on SmackDown as a color commentator and became a trainer on USA’s hit reality series WWE Tough Enough.

Breakdown

Booker T is a solid 89 Overall, and he is a fun Heavyweight to play. For a middle-of-the-pack Superstar, his Grapple Defense is pretty good, which will make reversing easier.

He’s got some pretty stylized Finishers too, in the Book End and the Scissors Kick, which make playing as Booker T interesting and a bit of a throwback experience. He’s got the Move Thief ability, so use that whenever you can to steal your opponent’s Finisher.
