Booker T says he's going to make Zilla Fatu cry like a baby.
As announced at the Reality of Wrestling Breakout event on December 11, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T will return to the ring and face January 11 at the ROW event on January 11. Aside from his brief appearance at the WWE Royal Rumble in 2023, Booker T has not wrestled since July 2022.
Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T discussed returning to the ring.
“I’ve been training because guess what, I’m stepping back in, going inside the ring just one more time because you know what? I can’t think of a better way, I couldn’t think of a better way to bring in this new year whooping somebody’s ass. Am I the man I used to be? No. Am I great as I once was? No. But I can still be great once. Of course, the right knee is bummed out. Of course, the cartilage is bone-on-bone. Of course. Of course, all of that. But you know what, I’m gonna tape it up. You know why? Because how you gonna tell a man he can’t go out there and do it like he once did, once before? You can’t do it. That’s what I’m talking about. So me, myself, getting ready, January 11, stepping right back inside the squared circle. Look at the flame [tattoo], still burning deep inside. I’m gonna tell this youngster, on January 11, [squeezes rubber duck], shucky ducky quack quack baby. I’m back. I’m gonna go out there, I’m gonna spank that boy. I’m gonna spank him like a newborn baby when he come out the womb and the doctor have to slap him a couple of times to wake him up, to make him cry. That’s what’s gonna happen on January 11. I’m gonna [mimes slapping]. I’m gonna make this kid cry like a newborn baby," Booker T said.
Booker T later said that fans would say the beating of a lifetime on January 11. He went on to reiterate that he has been training hard, as he was staying ready for an opportunity like this.
