Kurt Angle on Booker T & Batista getting into a fight
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Kurt Angle is a 14-time professional wrestling world champion, with titles collected in WWE, TNA, and Japan. He is in both the WWE and TNA/Impact Hall of Fames, a two-time NCAA Division 1 National Champion, and has also won a gold medal in freestyle wrestling at the 1996 Summer Games with, as he likes to say, ‘a broken freaking neck.’ At every stop in his career, Angle has reached the top of the mountain, and now he’s taking his Three I’s; Intensity, Intelligence, and Integrity, to the podcast world as he joins host Conrad Thompson to take a look back at some of the matches, feuds and moments that turned an Olympic gold medalist into one of the greatest sports entertainers of all time. It’s True. It’s damn true

Booker T was literally like, “TELL ME HE DIDNT JUST SAY THAT?!?!?”
Im sure he said dat lol
😂 thank you for the laugh [+]
🤣🤣👍🏽
Yoooooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Laughs in Vince McMahon
Batista: I don’t have anyone to work with
Booker: YOU DO NOW, SUCKA!
Lol..broooooo..😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹
LMFAO
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You can tell angle is at the point in his life where he just doesn't want to make anyone mad and live his life
Goldberg disagrees
That fight got Booker T another world title run because according to the reports, Vince McMahon was impressed with booker T for winning the fight. Always a fan of Booker T. He should have had more title runs in the WWE.
He did. IC vince dont care 4 black wrestlers in a serious manner
How many times did WWE put a World title on a black wrestler since 1963? only 4 times, 5 if you include The Rock, but for me he is more samoan than black
@@itachi-kun7736 he’s half Samoan half black so how is he more Samoan lol
@Epictetus 35 How many have you seen?
He absolutely got screwed at wrestlemania 19 no cap I would have fought Vince backstage like Bret Hart did
It's funny as hell that was the reason they fought. "What you mean you don't have anyone to work wit SUCKA?!" 🤣
Yeah its funny that they fought over that but ohh well at least they made up over that, its like anything in life ego tripping bullshit as they say, shit happens lol.
😭😭😭😂
@@andrewatuahene3234
No it was more than that you have to look at the whole context, Batista was complaining about being in smackdown since he was drafted over and he was being cocky saying he was the best thing on smackdown and he was mainly responsible for higher ratings smackdown was getting.
Read it in booker t's voice😭😭😭
It's disrespectful. Batista was basically saying nobody was good enough to face him on smackdown. That's just not okay and as a rookie in wrestling I can tell you this isn't that uncommon. When newer guys start thinking they're the top shit the veterans will put them in their place, it isn't often physical but sometimes people will lash out when someone who's been wrestling 10+ years longer tells them to have some respect for the people they are going to be working with
Booker T and undertaker are really close, and were really close after Booker T came into WWE. Highly doubt he was a locker room "cancer" at that stage
Booker T and The Undertaker are both from Houston.
Groomsman at his wedding.
Undertaker went to high school 3 miles from me where Patrick Swayze also went. Paul Wall 5 miles down the road
Wrestler's court is a Cancer
@@TrueGritProductions Paul Wall still underrated
Kurt we appreciate TF outta you and everything you did for the business thankyou!🦅🇺🇸🏅
They always said Booker T was offical with the hands
Kurt is such a good guy . Glad he beat the pills ..that take alot of heart
Kurt angle seems like such a genuine good dude
Yh he is
Generally people that have the ability to kill you quickly and easily are super nice people because they dont need to put on any macho bullshit
Yes but a little bit robotic :/
@@pk_1 how do you know him?
Lmfao what’s the difference either way?
Batista: come over to raw I have no one to work with.
Booker t: so you have chosen death
Tell me you didn't just say that.
After that ass whooping Booker T be like "Now can you dig that sucka"
Tell me you didn't just say that!
@@DSKRILLV lol
You don't f*ck with the 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 time WCW Champion🖐
Or you get 5 fingers to the face.
It's crazy cause everyone except Finlay said Booker won flawlessly
That's cause Finlay is a hater
@@Terrelbishopwhy is he a hater?
@@RewardBread619Because he had to kiss Booker's feet
@@victory7763when
Lol Kurt just said boozkr t had a black eye
Wasn’t Batista injured still? Anyway, to be fair, Smackdown was getting depleted at the time. Orton went to Raw, Angle would go to ECW soon, JBL became a commentator, Eddies passing.
I believe Undertaker also took a month off if I’m not mistaken
@@mayson6035 yea and i remember now that benoit took a sabbatical
and a jobber world heavyweight champion in rey mysterio was carrying the company
@@melvynwindmon1927 did you just call Rey a jobber lmao
@@savagestingy1450 Rey was booked like a jobber though
I always thought it was because Batista was acting too high and mighty and Booker took it upon himself to knock him down a few pegs.
Batista likes to run his mouth. He’s doing it now that he’s gotten a few Hollywood roles.
Yeah I heard the same thing
@@stealthmode1303 😂😂
That’s what I’ve always heard. Shit happens. Shows how good the company’s kayfabe and entertainment was back then. Looking at booker t getting powerbombed and power slammed by a 285lb muscle freak you wouldn’t think that behind the scenes he’s an actual badass. I even heard big show say once that he wouldn’t mess with booker or that if he got into an altercation it probably wouldn’t have ended well for him
With what he said that fits in context also
Batista VS Kurt Angle feud would’ve been some serious money.
Nigga Kurt would lock his ass up with ease lmaooo
I live near booker and have had many conversations with him at the gym. He said no won he got hit in the eye and Batista got a few body shots and it was broken up quickly. He said people blow it out of proportion.
Cap
I believe Batista was the big baddie at the time so when Booker T confronted him the locker room respected him even more
@@rxtsec1 would make sense for all the Batista lost numbers. MANY SAY BOOK WON. FINDLAY SAYS OTHERS BATISTA GAVE BOOK THE BLACK EYE AND WAS TOP OF DAVE. THEY WERE ROLLING ON THE GROUND. Lies spread faster than truth right?
@@YurumeinHerballyLiving well if that's true I choose to believe the lie and don't care. Now can you dig that (lol you know the rest)
Booker is probably going to knock the living hell out of you for posting on You Tube. Then it would make the evening news.
Booker T got a black eye because he was too distracted doing the spinarooni.
You guys should seriously consider naming the podcast "IT'S TRUE, IT'S TRUE WITH KURT ANGLE"
Probably can’t get the rights
Cringe
I like it. But does WWE own it?
Batista in his prime was built like a marble statue..crazy shape.
Body in shape don’t mean nothing for ass kickin no way that roid freak handle booker
Booker T in his prime is very very big too. I watch the video where he accidentally said the N word
@@jennyxie5382 that was hilarious. Hulk Hogan I’m coming for you N…….. -Booker T
Greek God genetics
This was in 2006 not 2003 he had slimmed down quite a bit
Angle is the man and he could've taken anybody in that locker room. Its true, its true!
Its Damn true
I'm realizing the intensity was real
Except maybe Brock
Not in a fist fight
@Kyle Bushnell In a fist fight or a boxing match? Even if he’s in a street fight, all Angle has to do is wait for the other person to throw an off balance haymaker, he’d shoot on the off balance leg and turn him into a pretzel. Actual wrestlers aren’t going to outright win many fist fights, but the smart ones aren’t going to lose very many either.
HEY! I was there as a stand in/extra for that commercial. It took 2 days. 1 day was mostly Smackdown people, the next was mostly Raw people.
They tried to cover up all of Batista’s “bumps” with make up but it was WAY too obvious. His eye was bad and he had all kinds of bruising going on around his neck and face. Don’t know if it was from Booker or Sharmell (she was kicking him in the face as Book/Tista rolled on the ground, while screaming “don’t you dare touch my husband!”)
It was a great weekend/beginning of the week 😁
The couple that fights together stays together
Was Booker also banged up?
@@raisehell1996 Not from what I remember. He seemed fine. The whites in his eyes were red, but as if he was just super intense like someone would be during a hard workout. You wouldn’t have known he was in a fight. But once Batista came out to the HUGE backyard (it was all filmed in a mansion), he was noticeably caked with make up that still couldn’t hide his fresh wounds on his face and neck.
@@RealHectorCanales I always thought this was a story someone made up because they worked so good together.
@@terryo3512 yeah, a lot of people thought that. I was with another group of independent wrestlers. Since we were training at UPW, we got the shot to go. It was 5 of us. News leaked out from one of the guys with us, but him being a bit of a kiss ass & “soft in the head” I guess no one believed him.
The difference is fans know a fight on the practice field is real. In sports entertainment, who knows what’s real, what isn’t, what’s a work, what’s planned, what’s planned but went too far, etc.
How can u tell if booker has a black eye? Is his eye extra swollen?
Booker T stood up for smackdown. That is crazy.
He didn’t stand up for himself when everyone below came up to be wwe champ and he didn’t. The 5 time WCW meant nothing.
We need the footage
Kurt left WWE right before SummerSlam ironically enough
kurt was in the summer-slam 2006 commercial
He left in October of 2006
I hope Booker was commentating himself like he on that episode of tna during the fight.... "AWE BOOKER T'S A BAD MAN"
Batista basically said "I'll wash everybody in this room"
And Booker did the response we have programmed in our DNA 💀
sure kid, you were there
Batista was starting to get a big head, not surprising when his mentor is Triple H
But Booker T 's eye is already black 😂😂😂
Imao
Damn Smackdown 2006 definitely wasn’t as strong as Raw in 2006. Kurt, Rey, Booker and Batista were the only champions that year. I don’t even remember who Batista was in a feud with before Undertaker in 2007.
That's Booker t for ya..
Nobody remembers much about his reign except getting beaten by batista/lashley during segments 😂
wat you mean only champs on raw in 2006 were Cena Edge and RVD!!
@@TimiO47 exactly
He was in a feud with Mr kennedy
Why you call a fight between Batista and Booker T an ‘amateur fight’ lol it was a real fight it’s not like it was sanctioned
Meltzer: Uhh there was a Fight. Time to tell my Trash again now.
Based on how Batista runs his mouth in the media, I can see why Booker kicked his ass.
Well only one of them had a black eye from that fight
He deserves it, he carried Smackdown all on his own in that time
how does he talk in the media? am i missing something?
Is everyone going to end up having a show with Conrad?
Conrad is probably cashing out
Gregory Helms says he saw blood, although he didn't see the actual fight, but Booker T wasn't bleeding. In the stories where people seem to recount details that make Batista look better, they don't mention that Batista was bleeding, but will mention that Booker T had a black eye or that Batista was on top when the fight was broken up (which, if you've seen enough fights you know that doesn't mean anything).
Why is that? Their stories can't be more true than Booker's. Idk why they wouldn't tell the truth but it doesn't add up.
You don’t know why they wouldn’t tell the truth? Are u aware of how the world works in general?
Kurt said the truth you just want to believe another story which BT won in that
I think no one really won
Always thought this happened in 05 not 06. But love stories like these helps tell the truths and blows away the lies. Wish we had stuff like this for the current product.
Booker wasn’t in the main event picture in 2005
@@joejames1794 He had a world title match vs JBL in 04.
@@Speedyreedy1218 04, not in 05. The closest Booker got to the main event picture in 2005 was when he fought in the 5 man match for what was promoted as being for the Smackdown championship when of course we know now there was no smackdown title and it just to setup JBL vs Batista. Beyond that, Booker had his weird rivalry with Angle and fought got the US title mostly in 05
@@paulmoore5392 Ahh. You meant summer 05.
It's not the truth angle is just covering book beat batista and not even batista denies it
Good on Booker, do y’all remember what Batista fuckin looked like in that era?😂 he was fuckin huge and absolutely shredded
Booker T doesn’t play. Batista was doing a lot of talking and Book said there’s a room right there. Let’s go settle it like men, just us. And he whooped Batistas ass.
💯 TEAM BOOKER T
"BATISTA IS DOWN, BATISTA IS DOWN. BATISTA GOT KNOCKED SCHLAPPED THE HELL OUT"!
Booker had a “black” eye? 😂 that means book won.
When was his eye black? Dont remember that
@@fightermma Batista didn't look beat up though
@@fightermma How does he lose without getting beat up? With Jericho choking out Goldberg, that's a clear victory. How do you know Booker won?
@@fightermma I believe the word going around was that Batista was "bleeding like a pig" from the incident.
@@fightermma Jericho only had him in a choke hold don't mean he was beat up smh
Stop saying it’s not really competition! Yes tf it is!!
Apparently the story that booker T told in his book was that everyone was grilling Melina (Morrisons gf or wife at the time) for running too friendly with Batista, in which he called out Batista. I hat this means is that all other parties that were there fact checked Book…
That anit what Booker t said. He said in an interview back years ago that Batista was acting like he was better than everybody on the roster and that's what led to the fight
Yep. Batista was arrogant and only showed respect to guys like HHH and Flair. Booker felt he didn't have respect for the WCW veterans.
@@segagenesis7708 well yea HHH and Ric made him a star he has to show respect to them!
So, Batista complained about having no one to fight, and Booker T decided to give him one. I love it! 👍
Wats up Kurt I just subbed love & Respect from the Bahamas
booker t whipped him stop covering for batista
Why wouldnt angle have a different format for his show, this is basically jrs with a diff host
"Batista! We comin for you Sucka!" 🗣 "Only he didnt use Sucka." 🚀 🦝
I think Batista meant it exactly that way ego plays a factor he thought he has better than all of smackdown at that time
The word back then was that Batista only respected certain guys like Flair and HHH, but did not respect the WCW veterans.
He was
@@justinrobertson7023 no he wasn't
@@coryjunior8747 lol he for sure was
I think his ego deserves well since he carried all smackdown alone by himself at that time, we all know about Super Cena, Brat Orton and Mafia Taker and why not Batista
With all due respect, I think it is the other way around because if you look on smackdown august 11th Batista got a black eye
Every account I hear is always that Booker T whooped Batista Ass
Save with Comrade
Kurt you’re the goat. But what has happened to your voice. It was very soft from 1999-2002?
Finlay was the only one that thought Batista won.
Exactly. That’s probably because he’s buddies with Bautista not Booker T. But alot of reports said that Booker T. won the fight, and he only got a blackeye is because Batista sucker punched him
@@spanishkid1 exactly. Finlay probably still mad he was King Booker’s Gesture.
You can tell the end of this segment was filmed long before the Draymond Green WMD debacle
Was this 05? So Batista just got moved to Smackdown late June and Kurt got moved to Raw?
06 Batista & Kurt were both on Smackdown at that time until Kurt moved to ECW a month later
@@g.o.a.t.8168 Batista was out on injury most of 2006 wen kurt was there wen Batista came back in July Kurt was on ecw before he left the company until 2017!
@@TimiO47 Technically he was still part of Smackdown even tho he was injured
@@g.o.a.t.8168 yeah but he wasnt there to compete so nt the same thing that dont mean a damn thing if he isn't active on the roster
@@TimiO47 So what? HBK was still part of Raw & Taker was still part of Smackdown even though they both took sabbaticals in 04-09
Conrad wouldn’t have a show without mentioning meltzer. ‘Meltzer said, Meltzer said, Meltzer said’ cmon
Yea it's get old fast
and booker t only got a black eye...
Batista said the same thing in real life what Booker said on screen when he got trade to smackdown in 04!
I've heard interview's from both sides. Apparently Booker brought Mileena up on charges with Wrestlers court, and Bautista was heated about it.
Batista could've said that in private to the guy he was asking to come over. I understand Booker taking offense to that because you dont broadcast like that, sounds kinda arrogant and dismissive of those around you.
Wonder who was that person Batista approached. It’s a main star since he wanted them to go to SmackDown
?booker and kurt. Legends!!! Kurts character on the mic will be up there with flair and the roc and wrestling wise not many compare to what he did night in night out!
Imagine people still getting pressed about something that happened almost 20 years ago.
Tell me, he didn't just say that?
I asked Booker T about this he said he whipped his ass. Then I asked him when u was whipping his ass did u say 5 time 5time 5time 5time 5time he started laughing
Cringe
stfu you aint ask booker nothing lmao smh
1:44 technically, two of those.
Kurt just glad he didn't have to tell the Brock story for the millionth time.
What Brock story ?
Why did you go Conrad, on a big long speech about how Batista got what he deserved, and then not ask one question on his opinion of that? Just very curious as as someone who has NEVER interviewed anyone, that HAS to be the next question.
His long speeches make me fall asleep
OMG LISTENING TO CONRAD HAS MY EARS BLEEDING
Insane how these videos don’t have more views.
Deacon Batista laid the Smackdown on King Booker.

Idk man

Booker t was a real G bacc in his day….research
TK Kirkland: yo I told booker t you can't let him disrespect you like that
They said Batista was a snob.
He tried to bully people and treat the other talent like shit.
Booker T humbled Batista
True from what I hear it went to his head. He was generally a nice guy but post that incident he became more humble. Even sticking up for guys like Christian and MVP, and taking the wrap for an accidental cut that Vince was about to fine and smoke the dogshit out of Batista, Jericho AND the referee during the cage match in 2008.
Booker always has black eyes
God bless America 🙏😂 but seriously epic pod
Stop the BS plenty people have said Booker won without question 😂
Even though it’s not really competition? There is plenty of competition, more so for position maybe than an actual physical contest, (although I’m sure there is competition to out do each other too) but it is absolutely a competition, don’t ever fool yourself into thinking it’s not
Booker t having a black eye is crazy
TELL ME YOU DIDN'T SAY THAT
Everyone has seen Batista in MMA guy can't fight sleep
I really worry for conrads health
Let's be real, it was no secret that Batista hated being on smackdown and his comment was more likely than not a jab at the blue brand.
Batista: i don't have anyone to work with
Booker T : Batista WE COMING FOR YOU NIGGA
BATISTA JUST GOT KNOCKED.. SCHLAPPED THE HELL OUT BATISTA IS DOWN, BATISTA IS DOWN BATISTA IS DOWN 😂😂😂 only the Real know wat im tlkin about
😂😂 I know exactly what you talking about
“Booker T got a black eye”…
People don't realize Batista is year older than triple h
6 months, but yes he is older
Conrad’s the worst thing that ever happened to wrestling. Bar none
Booker t whooped his ass
Booker had the black eye? I always heard Batista had the black eye
What did Groot think about that?
Why are people saying Booker T won? From what I heard he had a black eye as well. Sounds more like a draw to me.
Shelton Benjamin said Batista punched Booker while people were holding him back
The only main person who says Batista won is Finley, who Batista is friends with. Everyone else, from the day it happened (Because it was on the internet immediately), said Booker one and it wasn't close.
Hogan didn't misunderstand anything Booker ever said
Booker did come for him years later with the N word
Yeah
Batista was known for being selfish an arrogant cena referenced it in. His promo segment during his 2010 rivalry with Batista.
