WWE Hall of Famer Booker T was a recent guest on SiriusXM’s Busted Open Radio. During the podcast, he revealed that he thinks that the pro wrestling landscape has never been as on fire as it is today. Here are the highlights from the interview:
On The Abundance Of Wrestling Companies:
It’s rich right now, I mean the independent world is rich. Oversees the money is good right now, small businesses, like myself, are flourishing because we’ve got social media and we can actually stream our stuff online without actually having to go and pay some big network and stuff like that. So the wrestling business right now is at its hottest that it’s perhaps ever been, not just in two decades, perhaps it’s ever been.
On Not Needing To Work For The WWE To Make A living:
Even in the WCW, WWE, ECW wars. Literally, from the independent scene on up, it could be the hottest it’s ever been with the wrestle cons and stuff like that going on. It’s huge right now. Guys don’t need to be in the WWE to make a living anymore. That’s saying something.
