Would you agree that booker T is one of the best on the mic?
 
I was watching some of his King Booker stuff on youtube, and that got me thinking, while he might not be the greatest I would have to say he is up there.

Chavo Classic 06-13-2009 09:29 AM

No, I wouldn't. I can barely understand what he's saying 7/10s of the time.

GD 06-13-2009 09:51 AM

He is decent IMO.

Sting Fan 06-13-2009 10:01 AM

He is very good on the mic, but his King Booker stuff while amusing is not his best.

For some truly good Booker T Mic work try to find his pre WM Promo when he fought HHH for the World title, I dont remember where to find the promo anymore but its the one where he busted out his old "Dont hate the player, Hate the Game" line and he almost spat it in Trips face.

Awesome Emotion.

GD 06-13-2009 10:15 AM

The first thing that came to my mind was "Don't tell me you just said that" from the 2007 Royal Rumble.

Savio 06-13-2009 10:16 AM

How is he in TNA? I never watched him in it is he good?

Testicle 06-13-2009 11:14 AM

This is the same guy that called Hogan a nigger on TV.

lol.... that was awesome.... Booker was alright.... definately in the top tier of all-time.... but there are a number that are ahead of him

Stickman 06-13-2009 01:27 PM

No, not at all. I don't speak Ebonics.

Anybody Thrilla 06-13-2009 01:28 PM

Booker always had a strange charisma about him, but I don't know if I'd put him on any all time list for anything.

Anybody Thrilla 06-13-2009 01:28 PM

My favorite Booker T was the one running from Steve Austin and finally getting caught at a grocery store.

PRICE CHECK ON THE JACKASS

Stealth-Icon 06-13-2009 01:35 PM

I don't like him on the mic. You can't understand him most of the time unless he talks normal. We he does he stupid different accent of the month deal it is annoying.

5 TIME WORST ON THE MIC

WHAT? I Just got JACKED!

kareru 06-13-2009 01:53 PM

you mean to say he's better than the franchise? better than raven? better than......jeff hardy lol

Anybody Thrilla 06-13-2009 01:55 PM

I did like when he broke his royal character and got street, but that doesn't equate to fantastic mic work.

#1-norm-fan 06-13-2009 02:01 PM

Yeah, I wouldn't put him in the upper tier of mic workers.

He's A'IGHT though.

kareru 06-13-2009 02:07 PM

i dont think anyone here denies that the rock is the greatest mic wrestler in history

Anybody Thrilla 06-13-2009 02:14 PM

Jerry Flynn could cut a mean promo, but they never really let him.

DAMN iNATOR 06-13-2009 02:24 PM

He's average. He was better when he had a partner in Goldust. God he was sooo funny with Goldie.

kareru 06-13-2009 02:28 PM

i always laugh when scott steiner is on the mic

yeah but hes so big, and he has that ridiculous voice and he cant talk for shit

DarKCentaur 06-13-2009 04:08 PM

Booker in TNA is just... I dunno how to describe it. It's very Ahmed Johnson-like.

The Pope 06-13-2009 07:17 PM

Now can you dig that Suckaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?

Fox 06-13-2009 07:55 PM

"And Hogan, I'm comin' for YOU, nigga! ....shit..."

lol yes, one of the greatest ever

Testicle 06-13-2009 11:16 PM

His is really funny though.

He gave a promo this week on Impact on Samoa Joe, it was hilarious, he was trying to sound tough, but he was almost crying at the same time.

Mr. Nerfect 06-14-2009 01:28 AM

Booker T is definitely one of the most entertaining on the mic, but I don't know if I'd call him anywhere near "the best." I'd trust him with a promo, and I'd trust him to keep the fans entertained with his mic work, but I don't think his mic skills will take him to the Hall of Fame.

I think Booker T would make an interesting color commentator when he steps out of the ring, though. He's just got that entertainment-factor, and he's never at a loss for words.

Mr. Nerfect 06-14-2009 01:29 AM

I loved Scott Steiner ripping into Samoa Joe a few weeks ago. "He's fat!" I think it was Booker T who legitimate cracked up when Steiner just screamed that line.
