Which Released WWE Star Has Booker T Not Missed?
Booker T pulled no punches when talking about this one-time WWE Universal Champion.
Booker T has not missed Braun Strowman on WWE TV. Not one bit.
Not exactly known for pulling punches when it comes to giving his honest and often controversial opinion on a star performing in the business at this current moment in time, Booker T was at it again on a recent edition of his Hall of Fame podcast, this time focusing on former Universal Champion Braun Strowman (a.k.a Adam Scherr).
As the wrestling legend would confess whilst discussing the one-time main event WWE talent, Strowman's shocking departure from the company in 2021 hasn't led to Booker T missing The Monster Among Men in the slightest.
In the two-time Hall of Famer's words (via WrestlingInc):
"You know, I haven't missed Braun Strowman. Out of sight, out of mind. If you're gone from TV for more than a significant amount of time, people forget you just like that."
Despite not being present on the likes of WWE or AEW in the time since his high-profile release from the former, Scherr has still been plying his trade within the industry as part of the Control Your Narrative promotion and even rocked up at Ring of Honor's 2021 Final Battle show in the time before Tony Khan purchased the company.
And when comparing Strowman's WWE departure with his own career, focusing on the point in time when Vince McMahon purchased his former workplace of WCW back in 2001, Book would also note how he felt "I'm going to keep rolling, because the iron is hot, and I gotta keep it rolling... I could've sat at home and just keep collecting money, just like an ATM, but I said 'I got to make this work.'"
Whether or not Scherr is given an opportunity to pick back up where he left off in WWE now Triple H is in charge of creative remains to be seen.
