During the latest episode of his Hall Of Fame podcast, Booker T labelled The Rock as the greatest promo in the history of professional wrestling. Below are some highlights with a H/T to Fightful.com for the transcriptions.

“The Rock is the best promo guy that ever did it. He really knew how to capture the moment.”

Booker also went on to praise writer, Brian Gewirtz for his work in helping talent write their promos and get work done.

“Those guys like The Rock, he ad-libbed a lot of it but back then we had a great writer named Brian Gewirtz that worked with us. This guy, he was such a different dude. You watch him on the outside looking in, and you’re like, ‘This guy, get him out of here.’ Then you realize that’s the smartest guy in the room. He’s the guy that has all the knowledge. He worked with The Rock and me when I was King Bookah. He really made that character come to life and made him special. There’s no way I could have done King Bookah without Gewirtz coaching me, writing for me, and showing me the route to take with that character each night. He would really put me in a light to shine. I’m sure The Rock got much of that working with Brian as well,” said Booker.

The Rock saw the praise that Booker gave him and commented himself on social media. The People’s Champion thanked Booker, calling him the most athletic man he has ever shared a ring with.

Thank you, brother for this high praise. @BookerT5x will always be the BEST pure athlete performer I’ve ever had the honor for sharing the wrestling ring with. His athleticism, in ring timing and intensity was unmatched. It’s why he’s a @WWE Hall of Famer. https://t.co/zYxsKZJ1JY
