10 Wrestlers You'd Never Expect To Be Huge Gamers

3. Booker T

Booker T was one of WCW's rising stars during the late-90's, although it would take disagreements between management and Hulk Hogan before he captured the WCW World Title. There's no doubt about it, Booker was a tremendous all-rounder, someone WCW should have made more of long before the proverbial started to hit the fan. Throughout the mid-90's, Booker was tearing it up with his brother, Stevie Ray, as part of Harlem Heat. The tandem would win the WCW Tag-Team Titles a record 10 times, but one of Booker's biggest regrets is that he was never home all that often, and thus didn't get to spend a lot of time with his first son, Brandon. When he wasn't on the road, Booker would sit down and play games with his son, who was a huge fan of WCW Nitro on the original Playstation. Of course, Booker would always choose to play as himself, but could never beat Brandon, and says that's where a gaming hobby started, because it allowed him to be happy with his otherwise estranged child, so he associates video gaming with being relaxed.
