Eh, this has The Rock written all over it, right? And not because Booker T is a bad wrestler because he certainly wasn't. But because the only match I can remember between the two was at SummerSlam 2001 and The Rock came out victorious. Now I'm sure there were other matches but I don't think there were many with the stakes so high. And quite frankly, The Rock is the better wrestler with the better pedigree.

The Rock goes over in an entertaining match.

This match main evented Summerslam in 2001 I believe. Rock won. That doesn't even matter.

Rock is better than Booker in every single conceivable way. Ring work, mic work, drawing power, accolades, being black, etc. The only reason to vote Booker is personal preference which is fine. Just know that your preference is wrong.

We've seen this movie before folks and we know how it ends.

The Rock has beaten Booker T on more than one occasion. For the World Heavyweight Title and all. Rock has even beaten Booker T on the mic. "2 plus 2? Thomas Jefferson sucka." Plus the Rock Bottom is much better than the Book End.

Vote Rock.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Booker T was arrested for armed robbery. His blackness is far superior to that of the Rock's.

With that said the Rock wins this. I'm one of the biggest Booker T fans there is but not even the spinaroonie can get him out of this one. I've always said I think The Rock is the greatest pro wrestler of all time, greater than both Austin and Hogan. He moves on.

The Rock ye, there is only one way this goes down. Also, that match at SS 2001 was quite entertaining,


And now I miss Shane O Mac.

I can't even use Ready to Rumble here. Shit.

Rock is pretty much better than Booker T in every way. I love
Booker, but Rock just outclasses him.

Shucky Duckies will not Quack Quack today.

Booker T has transcended professional wrestling, while The Rock hasn't.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

Booker T is a great performer, he's done it all- even competing for the title at WrestleMania, but he isn't The Rock.

Booker had an extremely successful career, but The Rock is one of the absolute elite of wrestling, so charismatic and popular that he crossed over into the mainstream while still being in the WWE. He was a phenomenon who was the total package and everything you look for in a wrestler. He's had the bigger matches, the bigger feuds and did everything there is to do in the business in a very short time.

Booker is a great, Rock is an icon.

Vote Rocky.
