Booker T Explains What Makes Roman Reigns So Good, Says He'd Be Interested In Match With Him


Booker T wouldn't mind stepping inside the squared circle for one final high-profile showdown in WWE.

The two-time WWE Hall of Fame legend spoke during a recent installment of his Hall Of Fame podcast about his interest in having a match against WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns if the opportunity were to arise, as well as what he feels makes "The Tribal Chief" an exceptional top performer.

Featured below are some of the highlights from the show where he sounds off on this subject with his thoughts.

On how he would be interested in having a high-profile match with WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns if he had the opportunity: “I’ll tell you, man, if I had the chance to get in there with anybody, if I had the chance to get in the ring with anyone right now on the roster, it would be Roman. Just to see what I had left in the tank, and that’s a match that, like I say, I am not looking to scratch any itch or anything like that. But I really think that’s a match that would motivate me to actually get in as tip-top shape as I possibly can at this stage in the game. To be able to go out there and just do it, just to say I did it. Because the dude is good.”

On what makes Reigns an exceptional top performer in WWE right now: “I can’t give you all of the intangibles that Roman does without giving away all the secrets to the business. But the guy, you can tell it’s in his blood. You can tell he grew up around it. It’s not a guy out there playing wrestler, it’s a guy going out there and being in the moment. And really trying to get every ounce of feeling out of the fan that’s watching as opposed to how many spots I can do in the match. He’s trying to really get into your soul and to your heart. Just like when he pulled the chair out and went to beating the hell out of Seth Rollins. There was one pan of the crowd that they showed, and everybody was going crazy, everybody was mad.”
