    I never watch TNA but stopped while flicking just there and realised Booker is still talking in that stupid King Booker accent? Actually it doesn't even sound English anymore, more Cuban Hispanic or something. Whats up with that? Made me realise why TNA is even worse than WWE.

    It made you realise why TNA is even worse than WWE cause the wrestler probably decided himself to speak in that accent?

    Stupid reason

    He's kind of dropped it now, only kicks into it occasionally. Its meant to be African I believe.

    I think it's quite funny. He talks like that while doin a promo and if someone gets in his face he goes all gangsta and classic Booker on them.

    Wait, he's gone back to the gimmick that TNA were taking pops at when he first joined?

    The Genesis accent was different from his previous accent if I heard correctly (which I might not have, it was a stream).

    Its the African king think he has been doing for a few months now. Its not the faux English one he was doing in WWE its more like Eddie Murphy in Coming To America.

    Yeah I thought it was different. Guess its just one of the rules of wrestling - things change without explanation!

    Yeah. When he said Cute Kip I was thinking it was a new wrestler or something, it sounded like he said Cutey Keeep. It is pretty stupid
