Booker T – ‘Mark Henry Is Wrong. There Is A WWE/AEW War’

Booker T believes Mark Henry is entirely wrong with his recent comments that WWE & AEW are not at war. 

Speaking on his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker argued that there is a war between the two companies and that AEW was ‘touchy’ over being called a secondary promotion. He said,

“Mark Henry said there’s no WWE-AEW war. I don’t know what this dude was smoking. Okay, it’s a war. We went to war every time a big number would go down, and they would be comparing it to WWE. And I get 80,000-plus is a lot, man. That’s a big show. That’s great for AEW. It really is. It’s really great. And how long have they been promoting this thing? They’ve had time to sell 80,000 as well, so it’s great for them.”

“The thing is, there is somewhat of a war because being touchy about being called ‘secondary’ just last week… There’s nothing wrong with it being a war. One thing that Mark Henry said, ‘It’s not a war, the fans are winning.’ In a war, yeah, the fans do win. Because guys gotta go out there and run fast. You gotta run fast. You can’t run at the normal pace that you had been running when you were just on the track practicing. When you’re in competition, you gotta pick up speed. That’s what everybody’s doing. So for me, being in a war is not a bad thing.”
