He only worked in Dallas for a year, but he points out that he learned so much during that time that helped him later in his career. He points out that so many of today’s younger performers are focused on just rushing to get to WWE when they need to be focused on learning the business inside and out.
Booker T informs that he still loves the business because it gave him the life he has now. He’s been able to start his wrestling school and his own wrestling show, as well as run for Mayor and host his own radio show. He points out that there is no glass ceiling for him and he’s very proud of that.
He adds that he loves going to wrestling conventions and talking with people. He says his days go by so fast when he does those shows because he has so much fun telling stories and laughing with his fans. He points out that life is too short to be angry, and he wants to be happy and smiling every day he wakes up.
He started his own wrestling school/promotion called “Reality of Wrestling” several years ago and he points out that it’s very much like a family dynamic there. He likes to recruit his students at a young age in order to train them the right way and to watch them develop into professional wrestlers right in front of his eyes. A couple of his top performers now came in when they were 16/17 years old and now they’re in their mid-20s.
