Booker T is waiting for the call.
Despite only lasting a whopping forty-two seconds in last year’s Royal Rumble, the five-time world champion is prepared to make the most of his next opportunity if the WWE needs him to.
Speaking on The Hall of Fame, Booker T had made it very clear that he is checking his phone quite a lot to see if the news will come up that he is needed.
“[Starts stretching] I’m stretching right now man. I’ve been checking my email, I’ve been checking my gmail to see if the invitation has come through. But like I said, I’m in the best shape of my life, y’all. I’ve been training, I’ve been hitting the gym harder than I’ve ever hit it before. I’m serious, man. I’m serious on this. So if they need an extra man, if they need me to make that walk just one time going down in St. Petersburg, Florida, oh yeah, man. I will be ready, willing and able to get the job done, guys. So look here, I’m on call. I got my text messages. I’m not even taking any more messages. If anybody else text me, I’m not even gonna look. If it didn’t have a 203 area code, I’m not gonna even answer. So look here, I’m available. I’m gonna be in town for the Kickoff Show. One thing about the wrestler, he always make sure he brings his extra bag with him. So look here, the white tights, the white boots, they gonna be in the bag. So look here man, WWE, the boy is ready,” Booker T said.
“Don’t sleep on St. Petersburg, Florida, and your boy Booker T stepping out to the ring just one more time. I got my phone, and I’m checking my emails, and I’m checking them twice because your boy want another shot. I’m just saying,” he said.
Booker T did state a year ago that the 2023 Royal Rumble was the last time he would step foot in the ring. However, he is now saying never say never and hopes to prove that at the 2024 Royal Rumble.
