Booker T is still (somehow) underrated.
I know everyone has their opinions on Booker T's commentary, but I believe personally that he's gotten so many NXT stars over by understanding and working with the crowd. But that's not what this post is about.
Looking back on both the attitude and ruthless aggression era, I'm thinking about stars who are remembered most fondly. While there was simply so much star power in that era, I always wonder why Booker T isn't higher on most people's list. He had it all, the charisma, the athleticism, the size, the look, he shined in every single segment he was in.
Obviously, because he was a WCW star Vince put him through the ringer before actually giving him the push that he deserved. But I always think, what if Vince pushed Booker T from the start? Personally, I always viewed him as a Rock level talent, and while he never reached that level of fame, it will always be one of the biggest "What If's for me".
Still, he had a great career (I ignore his TNA run), and continues to do some good stuff on commentary.
