Every WCW Heavyweight Champion: Where Are They Now?

6. Booker T

If you weren't aware, Booker T is a five time WCW World Champion, not that he ever mentioned it. The former G.I. Bro bagged the Big Gold Belt on four occasions in the final year of the promotion's existence, regularly clashing with Scott Steiner in one of the last decent feuds of the company.

What certainly wasn't high on the decent" list was losing the belt to Vince Russo, but more on that later.

He won the title for the fourth time on the very last episode of Nitro, taking the belt with him to WWE where he would lose it, then regain it, against Kurt Angle to complete his famous five. He would remain with the company for another six years, even adding a World Heavyweight Championship reign to the resume, before jetting off to bolster the TNA roster.

He would eventually return to WWE in 2011 where he has remained ever since wearing a variety of hats within the broadcast team. He's done commentary, given analysis (shucky ducky?) on PPV kickoff and various other panel shows on TV and the Network.

He's also released two autobiographies and started his own radio show that doubles as a podcast, Heated Conversations - With Booker T, and has most recently been one of the hosts on WWE Backstage.

Oh, and he's one of just four people to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame twice!
