Booker T became the talk of the town after commenting on Adam Cole's physical size a few weeks ago. His words ("We gotta get some muscle on this kid!") didn't sit well with some of Cole's fellow pros either.

Now, the WWE Hall Of Famer has piped up about the injury Cole suffered at AEW and New Japan's recent Forbidden Door pay-per-view via his podcast. The Elite man reportedly suffered a concussion during his four-way match for the IWGP Heavyweight Title vs. Jay White, Kazuchika Okada, and Hangman Page.

Book was quick to point out that Cole's physical stature probably had nothing to do with that injury - he called it "bad timing", and said concussions can happen to anybody at any time. "That’s wrestling right there. I don’t call it reckless or anything like that, it’s just part of what we do", he added.

Wrestling fans on social media have been quick to jump down the legend's throat all over again though. Some believe he's taking another dig at the AEW star by even commenting on his concussion. Others, meanwhile, can see where Booker is coming from.
