What did Booker T think of Joey Janela's Flaming Superkick?
Who better to ask than the WWE Hall of Famer himself.
During the latest edition of his own Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T discussed the GCW Maniac singles clash between Joey Janela and Drew Parker, which featured "the stupidest thing I have ever seen in my career." Check out the highlights below.
On Janela's Flaming Superkick:
“I am always willing to say in somebody’s face what I am willing to say on this show. Joey Janela, that was the stupidest thing I have ever seen in my career. I’m serious. He didn’t have on like a boot where it could actually fend off the flames for a minute. He had a kick pad on and a tennis shoe. And he put so much damn lighter fluid on his foot, I mean it probably soaked all the way through to his foot. And the thing is, I don’t know how many seconds it was … in flame, but it was more than 20 seconds. And fire can get hot in about 20 seconds.”
On the market for that kind of wrestling:
“I know there’s a market out there for it, but it was probably 150 people, maybe 200, in that hall where they were doing this, and there couldn’t have been that much money in that little hall. Couldn’t have been.”
