Booker T Says WWE & AEW Should "Ban" Dave Meltzer
WWE Hall Of Famer takes aim at wrestling writers for "killing business".
Current NXT commentator Booker T thinks promotions like WWE and AEW should "ban guys like" Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez "from locker rooms" and from attending shows generally.
Book told fans tuning into his 'Hall Of Fame' podcast that Wrestling Observer coverage and some of the leaked stories they put out in front of the fanbase is "killing business". Specifically, Booker was hot that reports of Mustafa Ali being in line to win the NXT North American Title before recently being released from his contract made it out of WWE meetings into the media.
That didn't sit well with the legend at all.
Explaining, Booker added that "this story is what’s wrong with this business today", and said Meltzer, Alvarez etc are "giving away the ending of a movie for me". He's definitely against such "insider information" being leaked, and doesn't think it does anything for pro wrestling as a whole.
In short, Book wants to see WWE, AEW and other companies take action to stop these stories spreading. He'd rather more things were kept in-house instead of being leaked out into the wrestling media.
