I really didn\u2019t know if I could do it until I got a chance to be out there on my own and see how good I really was. And that moment was frozen in time in my mind to where that championship was really the one that put me on the map and let the fans really get behind me and push Booker T to the next level. When I won that title, it definitely gave me a connection with those fans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Booker T on how his in-ring style was influenced by kung fu movies:<\/b> &#8220;I was a big fan of the Shaw Brothers productions and karate movies and stuff like that. I didn\u2019t take a lot of my moves from wrestlers or anything like that that, all of my moves came from some movie that I watched and I tried to create something. Then I was a break dancer back in the day, so the Spinarooni came into play.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As well as I took karate\u2014I never actually competed or anything like that\u2014but with Shaw Brothers productions, I watched so many of those movies. Man, I knew The Centipede, The Toad, The Tiger Style, The Crane\u2014I knew every one of them. Having my own style was very, very important. And I talked to my students about this as well. I say \u2018in professional wrestling, you\u2019re going to be doing the same thing everybody else is doing, and you\u2019ve got to figure out how to do it just a little bit differently in order to be noticed.\u2019 That\u2019s what I was trying to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Booker T on connecting with Roxanne Perez&#8217;s anxiety storyline:<\/b> &#8220;Mental illness is true. I\u2019ve got one of my students, his name is Kevin Bernhardt, and he came in. And he was one of my first wrestlers. He was about 160 pounds, and he just couldn\u2019t make it. He was a kid who had anxiety problems as well, so I made him my writer for the show, and then he started producing the show, and then he started editing the show and then he started working with all the guys. He\u2019s been with me since day one. Eighteen years. I\u2019ve put him under so much work, he forgot that he had stress! (laughs)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve walked it. I\u2019ve been in it. I know what it\u2019s like to lose your parents early, I know what it\u2019s like to not have anything, I know what it\u2019s like to be locked up. So, to be able to fight through it\u2014which so many people quit in the middle\u2014They feel like \u2018there\u2019s nothing. Why should I fight? What\u2019s there for me?\u2019 But if you keep walking towards that light, you might find that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. That\u2019s what this life thing is all about and it\u2019s tricky.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Booker T on cohesive tag teams:<\/b> &#8220;I think fans need to see a tag team as a tag team almost from the beginning in order to really take them as a true tag team. When you put people together, sometimes it works, most times it doesn\u2019t. But that\u2019s what makes NXT a little bit different than the main roster. When you see the Gallus Boys finally make it to the main roster, you\u2019re going to know exactly who they are. You\u2019re not gonna mix them up with anyone. When you see Pretty Deadly make it to the main roster, you\u2019re going to say \u2018Oh, that\u2019s Pretty Deadly.\u2019 You\u2019re not gonna say \u2018that\u2019s Kit Wilson and Elton Prince,\u2019 you\u2019re gonna say \u2018that\u2019s Pretty Deadly,\u2019 but you know who they are. I think that\u2019s what the main roster needs to focus on a little bit more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Booker T on why he wants to see Grayson Waller called up in the WWE Draft:<\/b> &#8220;The one guy I\u2019ve really got my eye on is Grayson Waller. Just because he\u2019s got the maturity to actually step up to the main roster and be able to handle that thing a little bit differently. He\u2019s a little bit more seasoned than a lot of the guys in NXT. So I really feel like if Grayson Waller was to get a call-up throughout the Draft, I think it would be a pop for the crowd. I really don\u2019t think people realize how over this guy really is. He\u2019s over, man. Just his music alone and his walkout and his swag, man. He\u2019s a guy who really could make a huge splash.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Booker T on how AEW All in will fare in Wembley Stadium:<\/b> &#8220;I don\u2019t want to discount those guys as far as how well they\u2019re gonna do or how many tickets they\u2019re going to sell. But I do know that this is a big move going to Wembley. Just to get in Wembley and do something like that, it\u2019s big for that company. It reminds me of the WCW days, like \u2018man this thing is really getting hot.\u2019 The bigger AEW gets, the bigger the wrestling business is gonna get, I think. But this is a true test for that company and we\u2019ll see exactly what grade they get after the show.&#8221;<\/p><div id=\"prowr-2433557423\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\"><!--
