Booker T has thrown his support behind Triple H following the WWE CCO’s comments about race and booking made following WWE Bad Blood 2024.
During the post-show press conference, “The Game” said he didn’t see color when asked about WWE not booking black male talent at pay-per-view events.
Bad Blood 2024 was WWE’s third consecutive PPV without a black male wrestler in a match, and it’s been over two years since one won a singles PPV match.
On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T shared his two cents on the matter and the backlash to Triple H’s comments. He said,
“Has there been bias in the wrestling business, in the wrestling company before? Yes, there has… But do I think it’s race-related or anything like that, or someone being belittled on purpose? I don’t.”
Booker T added that wrestling has always had more white wrestlers than black wrestlers, and questioned why black talent were not appearing on pay-per-views. He said,
“What guys are we talking about that we saying that should be on the pay-per-view? Are they in any angles to warrant a reason for being on the pay-per-view?”
