WWE Hall of Famer Booker T takes a dig at Tony Khan for mocking John Cena and The Undertaker over NXT ratings
NXT commentator, Booker T, has responded to AEW President Tony Khan's recent comments on John Cena and The Undertaker and the ratings for NXT and Dynamite.
Dynamite went head-to-head against NXT this past Tuesday and failed to beat them in the ratings. The NXT card featured some big names, like Cody Rhodes, John Cena and The Undertaker.
On his Hall of Fame podcast, the former world champion reacted to Tony Khan's comments:
"I gotta take a dig at this last comment that he made about the NXT rating. He said that it was the first time that John Cena and The Undertaker appeared in front of less than a million people for #WWE and the thing is, he’s got Edge and Christian and all of those guys… So it’s like, when you say stuff like that, you might want to think about it before you say stuff like that."
Booker T continued:
"Because Edge was in the main event. Edge was in the main event of that show and they pulled 609 [thousand viewers]. The thing is, I’m sure, I’m sure Tony Khan thought that was going to be a bigger number. I can’t be positive on this , but I can imagine that Tony Khan would have thought that #AEW Dynamite would have gotten a bigger number," the Hall of Famer noted. [H/T: WrestleTalk]
