Booker T Wants Damian Priest To Take His Spot For WrestleMania Match That Rumored For Him
In the latest edition of Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T recently spoke about the rumors of him teaming up with Bad Bunny at WrestleMania for a match. He stated that he’s always passing to young guys and about the recent rumor he would like to see Damian Priest to partner with Bad Bunny at WrestleMania for match.
“I’m still trying to figure out where the game is right now. You know, just say, for instance – I’m all about the young guys. I hate it when these guys go, ‘oh, Booker T, he just buries old guys,’ because that’s just not me. I’m always about passing it on to the young guys, just like, for instance – rumor going around as far as me being Bad Bunny’s partner at WrestleMania. And what did I say – I said I’d rather see Damian Priest get that rub.
He’s the guy that’s on television right now. He’s the guy that’s going to be, you know, want to push. He’s the guy that will get on the house shows when we finally open back up and get out there to do those runs. He’s the guy that’s going to do those overseas tours. So, for me, just standing up there doing that video, the art of doing nothing that was perfectly fine. And to see a young guy go out there and get that rub with someone like Bad Bunny, you never know what that could do to his career. I’m set.”
Booker T also stated that the reports of him teaming up with Bad Bunny at WrestleMania is 100% rumor and revealed that no one in WWE has contacted him about that match.
“I think it is 100% a rumor. No one has talked to me about it as far as having a match at WrestleMania. No one has talked to me about tag teaming with Bad Bunny to go against anyone.”
