WWE Hall Of Famer Booker T has a specific rematch in mind should he return.

WWE Hall Of Famer Booker T has thought long and hard about what his return match could be, and some wrestling fans aren't going to like it.

Speaking on his 'Hall Of Fame' podcast, Booker brushed off suggestions that he should've won his WrestleMania XIX bout with Triple H. Then, he said that he'd be up for working a rematch, but only if WWE gave him one of those "big checks" and made it happen in Saudi Arabia.

There's surely some tongue-in-cheek flavour to Book's comments here.

WWE obviously hasn't produced a show in Saudi since Super ShowDown in February 2020. There, Bill Goldberg returned to wrestle Bray Wyatt's 'Fiend' for the Universal Title, and he likely pocketed a massive amount of money to do it.

That's why Booker is so interested.

He pointed out that he still steps into the ring for his own Reality Of Wrestling promotion, but that's only to help others out and give cards some extra star power. The former World Champ wouldn't be so charitable if WWE came knocking in 2021 or beyond.

They'd have to pay some serious cash.
