Going Ringside Ep. 67: Booker T joins us at River City Wrestling Con

The wrestling legend and current NXT announcer joins this special on location episode

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – Seldom do you find stars that have been at the top of the industry for 30 years. Booker T Huffman is one of those few.

He came to national fame in the now-defunct World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as one half of the team Harlem Heat alongside his brother Stevie Ray. After years of tag team action, Booker T was given a singles push in WCW and it propelled him to five world championships. And that was all before he went to WWE.

Then in WWE, Booker T faced all the greats including The Rock and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. In this episode, we talk at length about one thing that Booker T is remembered for that really wasn’t a match. That was when Booker T and Austin tore up a supermarket in a brawl. It is a clip from wrestling history that fans still talk about today.

Also on this episode, Host Scott Johnson is joined by AJ Francis in the question-answer session with Booker T. Fans may remember Francis better as the former WWE Star Top Dolla’.
