10 Things WWE Fans Want For Christmas In 2016
5. No More Booker T!
Speaking of failed commentary, Booker T somehow managed to survive the recent cuts that saw RAW pre and post-show analysts, Jerry Lawler and Lita, removed from the panels and, no matter how they try and spin it, essentially released by WWE.
While Lita was a curious hire from day one as she often stumbled over her words and struggled to articulate, Booker is by far the worst of all the analysts. Through nonsensical speech, completely inaccurate statements, and endlessly laughing at himself after everything he says, Booker T has become a caricature of the worst kind.
Just watch the most recent RAW Talk that aired after Roadblock: End Of The Line and you'll see exactly why Booker T should join Lawler and Lita.
From interrupting talents, preventing them from finding a rhythm to continuously badgering for attention, Booker is reminiscent of a bad wrestling manager. He should be there to feature the wrestler but instead goes into business for himself, constantly trying get the spotlight on him in some way, any way.
Talking Smack is a great example of how, with the right people, an open forum, pre or post-show panel can add tremendous value to the WWE product. Booker T just needs to be far, far removed from anything remotely resembling TV time and it would be a wonderful gift to fans in 2017.
