Booker T is giving Trick Williams major flowers ahead of WWE NXT Battlegroundand hes not holding back on the praise.
During the GLORY 3: Live Stream Kickoff for Reality of Wrestling, Booker and Brad Gilmore took a moment to reflect on Tricks live diss track aimed at TNA World Champion Joe Hendry. And for Booker, the performance wasnt just goodit hit spiritual levels.
The track, titled Average Joe, aired during the May 20 episode of NXT. It featured Trick firing shots at Hendry for being nothing special, even claiming Hendrys own mother called him average. But what stood out wasnt just the lyricsit was the way Trick controlled the energy of the room. Booker lit up as he described how the segment felt to him.
He said Tricks performance was so charged, it reminded him of something much deeper than wrestling.
Even as some fans online criticized Booker for joining in on the mic during the segment, he made it clear he had no regretsand insisted it only made the moment stronger.
Brad Gilmore echoed Bookers sentiment and made it clear that Trick was in full control from the moment he walked out.
With Trick Williams set to face Joe Hendry this Sunday at NXT Battleground in Tampa for the TNA World Championship, the diss track wasnt just a lyrical jabit was a statement. And Booker T believes Tricks got the kind of presence that cant be taught.
Trick didnt just spit barshe lit a fire. Now the question is whether he can carry that same energy into the ring and leave Tampa with gold.
