With the rise of AEW and the continuous decline in ratings, WWE has been forced to make efforts to improve their product and the company has recently made some big moves to try and change the state of their programming.

During the recent episode of his Hall Of Fame podcast, Wrestling Legend Booker T talked about the current state of wrestling and gave his thoughts on how the current product can improve.

Booker said that when we went to the PG era, it flipped the script a bit and made it a television show, and to improve, they just got to go back to what wrestling was.

Explaining his comments, T said that wrestling was characters like ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage and Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig. They were organically made and you can’t create or learn that in school.

Continuing on the topic the WWE Hall Of Famer mentioned the likes of Bret Hart, Sting and Ric Flair and talked about how these legends built their careers going around the world and getting worldly talent.

Later in the episode, Booker also discussed the importance of promo work and how the use of scripted promos has limited people’s abilities.
