Following a challenge for one final match, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T has responded to championship challenge from Trick Williams.
Ahead of a big title defence at this Sunday’s WWE NXT Battleground Premium Live Event (June 9), Trick Williams has laid out a challenge to none other than NXT commentator Booker T.
Williams explained that he has asked the WWE Hall of Famer to lace up the boots for one final match for the NXT Championship in a new interview, which you can read here.
On the latest edition of The Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T responded to the championship challenge from Trick Williams. He said:
“I’m like Ronald Reagan, man. “I’m not gonna exploit my opponent’s inexperience in this situation,”
“[Trick] is getting ready to take over the world. I want to see that kid take over the world. I don’t want to be in there trying to mix it up with this kid or anything like that.”
“I mean, he is the future of this business. I want to be able to step aside and be that dude in the passenger seat navigating this kid’s career to that next level.”
On preferring to be a mentor to Trick instead of his opponent, Booker said:
“I really appreciate networking with [Williams] and really being able to be a mentor to him,”
“I’m here for that kid in every way. If he needs me to get in the ring with him and just school him, I can do that. That’s off-camera. That’s all off-camera stuff, man.”
Trick Williams will defend the NXT Championship against Ethan Page this Sunday, June 9 at NXT Battleground.
Meanwhile, TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace will challenge Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Championship on the show.
