Good point, Blitz. I do think WWE missed the boat with Booker T in 2003, when he ended up losing to Triple H at WM 19. The fans were really behind Booker then and they wanted to see a title change. He lost and he's really never recovered from that. His heel turn last year was stupid (especially when they started having him act like Papa Shango).

He did beat Kurt Angle just before Angle was drafted to RAW, so it's not like Booker's jobbing every week. He's a solid upper mid-card guy but I don't think we'll ever see Booker T as a World Champion again.
