WWE Bio

Can you dig it? Booker T is much more than an announcer, he’s an 11-time WCW Tag Team Champion, a six-time WWE World Champion, winner of the 2006 King of the Ring tournament, and the man responsible for popularizing the word, “Sucka!” in sports-entertainment. He also bears the distinction of holding the WCW Heavyweight Championship when the promotion folded in 2001. From the moment he stepped into the WWE ring, Booker T has Spinaroonied his way into Superstardom, tangling with a who’s who of squared circle greats, including “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, The Undertaker, John Cena, Triple H, Randy Orton, Batista, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Christian, Mark Henry and many others. In 2001, as a member of The Alliance, he personally cost “Stone Cold” the Undisputed WWE Championship. In 2002, as a tag partner with Goldust, he launched one of the most outrageously funny tandems in WWE history. And in 2006 as King Booker, he delivered what’s widely considered the best faux British accent since Kevin Costner’s turn as the Prince of Thieves in “Robin Hood.” Booker T left WWE in October 2007, but returned in 2011 as part of the biggest Royal Rumble in WWE history. Soon after, the veteran grappler joined the announce team on SmackDown as a color commentator, and appeared as a trainer on USA’s hit reality series “WWE Tough Enough.” Then, in the summer of 2012, the six-time World Heavyweight Champion added yet another tremendous honor to his resume, when accepted the challenging role of SmackDown General Manager.

Breakdown

Booker T is a solid Superstar to take into the WWE Universe and play with—he’s well rounded and nobody will accuse you of loading up with the highest-rated Superstar in the game in your matches. Plus, we are such big fans of the Move Thief ability, and running through a slew of opponents while using their own Finishers thrown back at them—with sweet break dancing taunts in between—shows there’s no better way to spend time. When your opponent is grounded, hold R1 or RB and press up on the D-pad to open up Move Thief. Love it!
