Booker T Says WWE Should Introduce A Women’s Midcard Title
In a recent interview with Fox News, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T noted that WWE should introduce a mid-card title for women in the near future.
There are currently three titles for women on WWE’s main roster – the RAW Women’s Title, the SmackDown Women’s Title, and the Women’s Tag Team Titles.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On NXT names that could get called up: “I’ll tell you, man, we got so many guys down there that’s just so freakin’ talented and they are looking to make a move. I try not to push these guys too fast, too soon. I always want to try to give them that moment to where they can grow a little bit. But I do look at someone like an Indi Hartwell and a Zoey Starks to be able to add to the women’s roster. I do look at the Gallus boys and that Pretty Deadly team to add to the tag-team division.”
On what he thinks should be considered with main roster call-ups: “I look at it from that perspective. I don’t look at it just from a single individual perspective. I look at what we can actually help the main roster look a bit stronger. And in NXT, the women, they are very strong and that tag-team division is very strong. And I think, in NXT, there’s more to be created.”
On a midcard title for the women: “We should have a mid-card belt for the ladies, almost like a television championship where it’s not competing with the Women’s NXT Championship, just to give someone else a little biof a rub, a little bit of shine, as well as a little bit of something to work for because it always gonna be a while before you work your way to that big goal.”
