Speaking on The Hall of Fame podcast with co-host Brad Gilmore, Booker T noted that he was about a week out, and he would be back at the broadcast table.

“I’m back in the gym. I’m feeling good. I’m one week out, and I’ll be back at the table, doing my thing, doing it like it’s supposed to be done, making all them suckas bow down, making them pay, making them say, ‘Daddy, I don’t want none.’ I can’t wait, man," Booker T said.

Gilmore then asked Booker T to confirm when fans would see him again in NXT. The WWE Hall of Famer stated that he would be coming back in about a week, as everything was healing well. He stated that he had a doctor's appointment to make sure everything was okay.

“I’m coming back, I’m coming back strong in about one week. I’m about a week out. I had a doctor’s appointment this week, just to make sure it was all clear. Everything’s healing up real good," Booker T said.

Figthful will continue to monitor the situation and provide more information as it becomes available.
