Booker mentioned, “I liked the intro too, the slow rise; it was really, really cool. The cinematic production, it felt big; it felt like a superstar was walking out of the curtain. I think that’s the difference with Cody Rhodes now, being back in the WWE.”

The six-time World Champion Booker T praised Seth “Freakin” Rollins and Cody. He claimed that The Drip King and The American Nightmare battled in a professional wrestling match at WrestleMania.

“It reminded me of what wrestling is; it really did,” Booker T said.

The WWE Hall of Famer believes that Rhodes and Rollins had the performance of their life at The Most Stupendous WrestleMania.

“When I saw Cody and Seth go out and do it, it was nothing but two guys going out there simulating life,” Booker T added.

According to Booker, what Cody and Seth portrayed at WrestleMania is what wrestling is all about. Professional wrestling is when two men go back and forth throughout.

Booker T hopes that the WWE will sustain to move forward with Cody Rhodes as a catalyst. The American Nightmare has a story beyond what the company creates for television.
