10 Most Notorious Booker T Urban Legends

8. No Longer Talks To Stevie Ray

Story: When Booker T was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2013, it was the first time he had spoken to his brother in around 5 years. Previously, Stevie Ray and Booker had been inseparable, but something happened between the siblings that was big enough to stop them conversing. Rumours suggest that Stevie was upset with Booker over a lack of support for the wrestling school idea he had years ago. When Booker decided to open his own school, that only fanned the flames. The brothers became distant, and rarely talk today. Why People Believe It: During the WWE Network special exploring Booker T's life, the wrestler mentions the dissension and seems very cut up about not talking to him brother. During his own interview, Stevie Ray seems sad about the situation. Should We Believe It: Whilst it's true that Booker T and Stevie Ray didn't talk for 5 years, to say they still don't converse is false. The brothers have mended fences together, and launched their own wrestling school. Further to that, they also appeared together once more as 'Harlem Heat', the tag-team that brought them so much success in WCW. Booker T and Stevie Ray are on good terms now.
