What does Booker T think of the recent public criticism of WWE made by Chris Jericho?
Who better to ask than the former five time, five time, five time, five time, five time WCW World Heavyweight Champion himself?
During a recent installment of his Hall Of Fame podcast, the pro wrestling legend shared his thoughts on the recent criticism of WWE made by AEW star "Le Champion."
Featured below is an excerpt from the show where the WWE Hall of Fame legend touches on this particular topic.
"It was after someone said the Blood and Guts Match set wrestling back 30 years, so I understand the jab back. But Chris Jericho knows that thing was about getting a check. It was about a promotional tool to actually get this out there to get people to the drive-in or movie theatre to see this thing. I totally understand it, but a lot of people from the outside looking in, when they see something like that, they go this is corny, this is cheesy…..this is entertainment. How many times have you heard me say that’s their stuff. If I want to run something, I’ve got to create my own. That’s why I created Reality of Wrestling just so I can call the shots, create the storylines, the angles I want to do, the angles I always wanted to do or angles I pitched once upon a time. That’s the only way. But when you’re dealing with somebody else’s stuff, that’s theirs, they’re going to do it their way. Just get it, understand it because I don’t think that’s ever going to change."
