» Booker T's reputation among those in the TNA locker room isn't particularly good at the moment. According to reports, the Main Event Mafia member is widely regarded as the most selfish wrestler in the TNA locker room — a sharp contrast from his wife Sharmell. Many are observing closely to see if TNA president Dixie Carter follows through on what she's been saying about cutting ties with individuals who don't support the company's newfound youth movement.

» In case you haven't noticed, there is something of a youth movement going on in TNA. Company president Dixie Carter is very high on pushing the younger talent and has made it clear that anyone who objects won't last long. Carter has identified AJ Styles, Matt Morgan and Hernandez as the three men in line for big pushes in the organization. Bobby Lashley had been on that list, but company officials have cooled on investing heavily in him as a result of his other career in MMA. While he'll be featured prominently when his schedule allows him to work, Carter has determined that she can't build her company around a wrestler who won't be there on a full-time basis. Hence, Lashley is no longer mentioned as one of the stars Carter is banking on to lead TNA in the future and his stock in the company is down.

I heard Booker is considering going back to the E'.

Wouldn't be a bad decision, really. As long as they don't portray him as King Booker again, I'm fine. If anything, that was a pretty low point for Booker, even though the accolades he had accomplished in that time.

I'd rather he just retire, honestly. WWE are finally starting to create new stars, they really don't need an attention starved Booker T on the roster.

Pretty funny how a lot of former WWE stars are considering coming back.

Kurt Angle talked about it

Christian did it.

But to be fair. Booker was always a ass backstage.

wah wah wah wah wah..

I don't want Booker Back in the E' though, unless he's gonna put younger stars over.

Booker is getting old, he's amazing in the ring, well, at least was. Now he's just there for his name, and quite honestly, I don't want him back in the WWE,

He does however.

Have great mic skills and has the chance to be a great trainer.

But not a full time wrestler, the dude is old, and his skills have dropped noticeably. WWE are pushing the young stars, so if he goes, he'll just ruin it.

Well that is what I'm saying. He should train younger talents. He knows a lot about wrestling and has been around for a lot of new things
