Booker T on Why Harlem Heat Never Wrestled in WWE 

What ?? Never thought of that one. Yeah, would definitely have been next level ! JB

And they should meet right on the corner of Harlem and Dudleyville! #itsgoingdown

Dddddddddddudley Boyz!

FACTS my brother !!!!!!

Harlem heat vs hardy boyz would of been good

Stardom ? Bro they buried the shit out booker t the first few years he came in . Stevie said on interview he didn’t go to wwe because of the way they were booking his brother with booker getting humiliated by rock Austin and hhh

Teto 2021+ True Facts.

What about Ken shamrocks music?

Harlem heat vs DOOM

All hail

You Forgot Kronik, Chuck Palumbo & Sean O’Haire And Mark Jindrak & Shawn Stasiak. They Didn’t Take On Every WWE Tag Team Because The WWE Were Scared Their Tag Teams Would’ve Been Destroyed And YesThey Would’ve Been Scared Of Harlem Heat Dominating Or Beating Their Tag Teams. Too Rhetorical Steiner’s Would’ve Beaten Every WWE Tag Team. Rick Steiner Would’ve Destroyed The Small Guys And Scott Steiner Would’ve Beat/Dominated Any Big Guys In The WWE Tag Teams.

The WCW days were EPIC! I loved the Steiner Bros and Harlem Heat!

WWF over here , we buried Yall 🤣 Austin Vs McMahon , you guys had no chance !

TRUE!

Towards the end it was getting wild lol. Like what..

Rick Deckard Agree. Too bad it all fell apart after the N.W.O. storyline ended.

Lmao

😂😂😂

Savage 🤣🤣🤣

Bravo, Sir!! 👏👏👏

Tell us you did not just said that

Facts

My Favorite on WCW Vs NWO Revenge Nintendo64 game is Harlem Heat and the Steiner Brothers... I love their Entrances and Finishers are awesome

I still play that once a week and souled out! Classics!!

💯💯💯

Steiners handz down 4 me

Ikr? I bet Kofi is so embarrassed that he's the wwe world heavyweight champion. What's that man gotta do to get some respect?

@@JMohler Even though I agree with what youre getting at...The comment up top has a point,we're talking about during those times.During those times if they were black or if they had relation to WCW,sometimes some kind of degrading story or build would happen.Look at what WWE did to DDP or Booker T's wrestlemania feud with Triple H

@@JMohler yeah cuz we have had SOOOOO many black wwe champions. I swear..... If we have one more.... I wouldn't be able to stand it..... Smh Shut up

@@joelbreezy3116 Mark Henry is awful and got multiple world title runs, Booker had a great run and won a world title in wwe, not to mention he's 1 of only 4 people that are two time wwe hall of famers, the Rock did pretty good for himself or was that the samoan half of him? Have there been a lot of black world champions in wwe? No. But there wasn't a lot of world champs in wwe on general until 2000 or so. Back before that they gave them fools the belt for like 10 freakin years at a time so nobody got to be wwe world champ unless your name was hogan, backlund or samartino. The wwe always had top talent that was black tho even back then. Rufus r Jones, Rocky Johnson, JYD, Ernie Ladd, Bad News Brown, hacksaw butch reed, koko b ware, Slick was a top heel manager. Tony Atlas, And how can we forget about the man from deepest darkest Africa...the African Dream Arkeem...well maybe not him lol. Hell R Truth is McMahons best friend in the locker room. Seriously tho, what black wrestler has deserved to be world champion and got fucked? Shelton Benjamin? Ahmed Johnson's injury prone bloated ass? Otunga? Big Daddy V? DLo? Who got fucked out of the title just because they were black? So you stfu all pissy because your boy Virgil didn't win a world title. What about my peeps? I don't remember there being a Hawaiian world champ. Ricky Steamboat, and the Rock Don Muraco was as close as we got

JTG was a good worker! We never got a push.

Yas bro mi 2 miss the good old days playing with the Harlem heat on wcw revenge for 64 💯

Vince probably would've gave them the Rocky Johnson & Tony Atlas treatment.

@@1Packersgamer Heck yea! Good times playing that game. Still got it too 👍

@@goodmanfilife Lol most likely

@@1Packersgamer Dude, I still play that game often to this day!

Yea maybe but Vince did let Booket T be himself so why not Harlem Heat

Yeah like Crime Tyme or Street Profits... lol Nobody ever gets to be Black 😂 New Day is held back also 🙄

@@hannibalking6366 They are totally different than those guys you just named you know that and I know that. The things they would say in the camera on the way to the ring the old WWF would not have done that. Remember they were doing that before the attitude era. Did you not hear Ron Simmons say how much heat they got for the nation from the public. If you noticed they changed up the nation

@@therealfrisco3859 They didn't let continue to be himself. Notice he only got the World title as King Booker. Kofi is champ because he is toned down with throwing pancakes. I'm not saying it's a race thing but even Jim Cornette was like why couldn't they have just left Ron Simmons the way he was and they put the World title on him. Harlem Heat would have been repackaged at that time. I'm glad they didn't go to wwe

@Wavybone Andretti Cryme Tyme was grade A horse shit 😂

WWF over here we buried Yall 🤣 Austin vs McMahon, you guys had no chance

Let Me Make This Clear, I've Done It Before & I Will Be Heard; The Only Way Harlem Heat Would've Been Buried In The WWE, Is If They Wrestled WWE Top Stars. That's What Happened To Kronik In The WWE; Instead Of Wrestling The APA Or Any Of The Rest Of The WWE Smalker Tag Teams, The WWE Had Thwm To Wrestle The Undertaker & Kane. That's Exactly What Would've Happen If Both Booker T & Stevie Ray Were In The WWE.; The WWE Would've Put Them In A Match Against The Undertaker & Kane. The WWE Didn't Have Any Tag Team Division(Midcarders) Competition For Kronik, Chuck Palumbo/Sean O'Haire, Shawn Stasiak/Mark Jindrak Nor Harlem Heat. WCW Had Big Tag Teams & More Bigger/Built Tag Teams In History. I Looked It Up Of The Past Before I Started Watching Wrestling. Besides The Road Warriors, The Fully Built WCW Tag Teams Began With Ron Simmons & Butch Reed. Now Back To Subject. I Said I'm Going To Be Heard. I've Already Been Heard. I've Said This/Typed These Comments 6 Times & Got 2 Highlighted Replies/Top Comments. I Did It Last Week & The Week Before. I Will Do It One Last Time. The Only Way Harlem Heat Would've Been Buried In The WWE Was If The WWE Put Them In A Match Against Main Eventers/Top Stars. The WWE Didn't Have Any Tag Team Competition For Harlem Heat, Kronik, Chuck Palumbo/Sean O'Haire Nor Shawn Stasiak/Mark Jindrak. The WWE Had APA(Only One Built Member & The Other Was Not Built), Edge/Christian, The Hardy Boyz & 2 Cool. The WWE Had ECW's Dudley Boyz & WCW Had ECW's Mike Awesome & Lance Storm. WCW Also Had Big T/Ahmed Johnson(He Gained Weight In WCW Weighing 350 Pounds & Was Still Muscular/Built. He Could've Taken Down WWE's Prince Alberr. Imagine Harlem Heat Of Stevie Ray/Big T vs Test & Albert. They Have Muscular Size & Power Their Side & Stevie Ray Is Bigger Than Test). WCW Also Could've Formed 2 Tag Teams From 2 Stables; The Filthy Animals-Konnan/Disco Inferno & The MIA/Misfits In Action-Hugh.Morrus/Van Hammer. WCW Also Had A Built Heavyweight Tag Tesm Of Alex Wright/Disco Inferno-They Both Weigh 250 Or More. Let's Not Gorget About During The Late 90s When WCW Had High Voltage(Those Men Are Built Powerhouses. They Look 265 Pounds Or More. The WWE Didn'tHave Any Midcarder/Tag Teams Like High Voltage(They Didn'). )WWE Weren't/Aren't As Great As They Wanted/Want People To Think They Were/Are. The WWE & Their Propaganda Sucks. They Try To Sell Themselves Too Much/Too High. Yes, Their Ratings Were At Their Highest During The Attitude Era. That Success Swelled Up Their Heads. It's Not Because Of The Fact That They Were Successful, But The Way They Acted About/Towards/Of It. They/Theur Fans From The Era Think Everything Was Perfect In The WWE During The Attitude Era. It Wasn't. The In-Ring Work Rate/The In-Ring Wrestling Wasn't Better. Their Women's Division Wasn't Better Then. And Their Tag Teaam Division Wasn't. They Had Only 3 Fully Built Tag Teams Of Their Own Talent-Jeff Jarrett/Owen Hart, Ken Shamrock/Steve Blackman & 2 Cool(Both Are Built/Muscular, But Weighs 220 & 225 Pounds). They Had Some Overrated Tag Teams. Other Built Tag Teams WCW Had During The Monday Night War Were The Road Warriors, High Voltage-Whom I've Mentioned & Mike Enos/Bobby Duncum Jr.(They Competed With Jeff Jarrett & Owen Hart). WCW Had The Bigger/Better & More Powerful/Dominant Tag Teams. During The Invasion Angle, All Those WCW Tag Teams Would've Dominated The WWE Tag Teams & Won Every Tag Team Match. WCW Would've Went Undefeated In The Interpromotional Tag Team War. There's No Way Harlem Heat Would've Been Buried By Any WWE Midcarders/Midcard Tag Teams. Harlem Heat Would've Domunated The WWE Tag Team Division, During The Attitude Era & The Invasion Angle. They Probably Would've Dominated During The Ruthless Aggression Too. WCW Also Had More Built/Muscular Midcarders Than The WWE. The Women's Division Back Then Was Nothing Like It Is Now. What's The Complaint About The Women's Division Now. The Women then & Now Are The Same Sizes. The Only Women Then & Now Sizes That Were/Are Different Were/Are A Built Chyna & An Underused/Underutilized/Underpushed In The Women's Division, Bodybuilder Nicole Bass Then And Now A Thick Nia Jax & Tamina-Yeah They're A Little Fat. Besides These 4 Women On Then & Now, What's The Difference In The Women Then & Now. I'll Sanely/Logically Explain. There Is No Real Difference. The WWE Brought About Sex & Nudity To Their Women's Division To Compete With WCW's. Eric Bischoff SSaid That WCW Women's Division Wasn't As Big As it Could've Been Because There Were No Women Available. He Said There Were No Women Training To Be Wrestlers. It Wasn't As Many Opportunities As There Are Now & Years Ago. If That's Really True About There Being No Women Available, That Must Mean Most To All The Women Who Came Into Wrestling Were Models, Porn Stars, Cheerleaders Or Bodybuilders. The WWE Brought Nudity In The Women's Division & They Targeted Teen Males. What They Explanatoringly Did Was Target/Bring Perverts Into Their Product. They've Created A Monster Among Their Mentalities & Perverted Male Fans. Now. They Have To Fix That Mistake They've Made. Some Fake, Twisted, Stupid, Dumb, Ignorant, Disgraceful/Disgracing/Toxic Male Fans Only Like Divas/Women Wrestlers Because Of Their Looks. They Are a Disgrace To The Viewership Of Women's Wrestling. There's Only One Diva During The Attitude Era That Most To Everyone Said That Is Beautiful & Can Wrestle Is Trish Stratus. I Believe There Were 2 Divas Who Looked Good & Can Wrestle, Ivory. Yes, Ivory On A Scale To 10, Is A 9.8. I Saw That. That's Why Sting WWE Had Her In Bikini Contests Or Bra & Panties Matches. Which She Didn't Want To Be In. That's The Whole Purpose Of Bikini Contests, Beauty Pageants & WWE's Bra & Panties Matches To See How Good The Women Look. They Wouldn't Had Any Ugly/NonBeautiful Divas In The Bikini Contests Or Bra & Panties Matches. I Don't Care What The Women Wear To The Ring; I Just Want Wrestling. It's A Wrestling Company, Not A Beauty Pageant. The Women During The Ruthless Aggression That Looked Hood & Can Wrestle As Voted Unanimously, Were Trish Stratus, Torrie Wilson, Victoria & Maybe Molly Holly; Add Ivory, That's 5. Now, The Women Are Trained To Be Wrestlers. They Could Care Less About Their Looks. If There Are Some Women Now That Can't Wrestl. They're Not On TV. I Bet The WWE Sent Them To Train. There Are 3 Times As Many Women Wrestlers In The WWE Now. I Think Those That Can't Wrestle Aren't There. If You Add Them, The Women's Roster Will Be 3.5 To 4 Times Bigger. The Diva Search Was a Waste Of Time With Women Winning The Contest Without Knowing How To Wrestle. The WWE Wasted A Lot Of Money Training The Women & Then They Lost More Money When The Divas Gets On The Roster & Doesn't Get Pushed Or Doesn't Do Much & They Could've/Most Likely Left The WWE Within A Year. People Take The Women/All The Women On The Roster Serious Now. The Women's Division Right Now Is Better Than The Men's Division. The WWE Men's Division Was Better In the Past 22 Years & The Women's Division Wasn't. Now, The WWE Men's Division Is At It's Worst, But The Women's Division Is At It's Best(They Just Need Another Built Woman Or Two). I Know This Is Taking A Lot Of Time/I Know It's A Lot, But It's Worth It.. Imagine During The Invasion Angle, While WCW Dominant Tag Teams Wrestled/Beat Down/Kicked A$$es Of/Dominated/Ran Over Like An A Train/Destroyed The Smaller/Inferior/Less Powerful WWE Tag Teams, Imagine If WCW & The WWE Switched The Big Show With The Warrior-Big Show With & The Warrior With The WWE & It Was Kevin Nash & Sid Vicious Feuding With The Undertaker & Kane & The Giant/Big Feuded With Mick Foley. That's Inevitable Domination By WCW.. Also They Would've Had Hollywood/Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, Sting, Lex Luger & Goldberg vs Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, ShawnMichael's, Triple H & The Ultimate; While They Had/Have Sid Vicious & Kevin Nash vs The Undertaker & Kane/Kevin Nash vs Kane, Sid Vicious vs The Undertaker & The Giant vs Mick Foley Or Kevin Nash & The Giant vs The Undertaker & Kane & Sid Vicious vs Mick Foley, They Would've Also Had; Hollywood/Hulk Hogan vs The Rock/Triple H, Scott Hall vs Triple H/The Rock, Goldberg vs Austin, Lex Luger vs The Warrior Ultimate & Sting vs Shawn Michaels. That Entire wCW Would've Dominated/Kicked The Butts Of/Destroyed The WWE. The WWE Can Take Their Propaganda, Arrogance & False Narratives/Revisionisting & Shove It & Burn It & Burn With It.

Facts 💯

@@QFilmz dude stfu.....fake wrestling fan

@Metropcs Metropcs Harlem Heat weren't average. Booker is right I grew up watching the NWA, and when brought up tag teams the Midnight Express was the first to pop up in my mind as well. Harlem Heat are a top 5 all time tag team.

Vince was obviously trying to recreate harlem heat with the new guys but none of groups can compare

Doom Butch Reed and Ron Simmons don't forget them Butch Reed was a beast

Denise Mitchell Doom- Butch Reed and Ron Simmons were beasts. But Harlem Heat were on a whole different level. Thankful they went to WCW.

The Usos vs Harlem Heat would have been one of the best matches out!!

Surprised you didn’t throw in Private Party while you rattled off a bunch of random black tag teams LMAOO

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hulk was so tanned back then you would think he was. LMAO

@@alltheragegeorgepageakatheperv I was referring to this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NjEs9pj_v1Y.html

@Metropcs Metropcs you're one of the many snowflakes that can't take a joke. I seen that interview before it became a meme. I grow up watching Harlem Heat. I also remember when WCW was NWA before Ted Turner brought it.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes, I also believe them being in WWE would have tainted their legacy

Harlem heat ant top 5 but they were pretty good. But shout out to another wrestling fan

I could honestly put them anywhere from 4-7 on my all time favorite teams and feel comfortable with my decision, it's all subjective because it's our opinions. Different strokes for different folks and that's what makes wrestling so amazing is we can have these conversations and just remember those good times.

@@ianmorris1187 you right man smh damn I miss them days I'm 27 now and I just remember watching WWF and WCW and just didnt realize I was watching the best era of wrestling of all time.

Definitely top 7 in my book

Lee Lee Clark you crazy wwe was a wash !!!! Wcw was Better . Just got carried away with the nwo shit . But sting , macho, Hogan, Nash , ddp, razor was the best !! Wwe was a soap opera, real wrestling was on wcw

Smart move, and his legacy has been set in stone!

Stevie Ray is a real OG. He seem like the type that would back hand Vince if he disrespected him but he loves his brother so stayed out of it so he can let his brother shine. (& yes I just made this whole scenario up in my head). Lol

Stevie would of smacked the shit outa Vince if he tried disrespecting him basically what Booker was saying lol

It's possible WWE would have made them look like chumps, though.

@@robertwarf3316 Yes,now that you mention that,they would of made them look bad,even though they are just as good

Yeah but it would have been great in the late 90s

They would of been more on the Dudley's sort of level

@@sunnylal888 really

meh

That's old school I remember that

@@tazzhardwick7466 Oh yeah GWF

I'd mark the fuck out, that's for sure.

The problem is today’s fan base are only children

Honestly man, I love booker but I saw him wrestle recently and it’s similar to watching Jericho, Undertaker, and HHH wrestle, it’s sad to watch personally.

​@@King45Moseswhere?

Maybe Stevie had no interest in WWE.....

He somewhat did, he said WCW guys had to prove themselves all over again. Even Booker T had to go through that

Yikes. I haven't even mentioned the wild Samoans and time Tully and Arn

He did for a bit and then he shaved bit off.

My list is ROAD WARRIORS,STEINER BROTHERS, HARLEM HEAT,ROCK AND ROLL EXPRESS

While your list is Legit. Dudley Boys Need a spot.

Don't forget about the Hardyz

Demolition and The Killer Bee's was no joke.... ..

Sean LaGrone Dudley’s?!?!?

Loved their entrance music. My favorite tag team

Yeah It really hurt when Sting went over there to work for McMahon. And McMahon did him exactly like we thought he was going to do. Dogged him. Having him lose the triple h. I know you got paid a lot of money Sting But a lot of us respected you more for not bowing down to this dude. Hats off to Stevie Ray. Most respect from us WCW lovers

@@dewayneperry8395 Yes absolutely💯% If i was sting after all that time i wouldn't have ever went there just to be jobbed out. No way in the world vince would have gave sting the same push that he gave the ultimate warrior. And sting knew that which is why he never thought about going over there. Smart move because wcw made him one of their biggest franchise player's

@@immaculateprince absolutely💯

Also, Konnan

Scissor kick

In Zamasu We Trust nice list

Were is the hartfoudation and rock n sock connection i disagree with 3 because hardyboyz should be on this list. Come on no mega powers rip macho man . rvd and sabu they didn't wrestle great tag team you got them at 2.

Replace young bucks with the hardy boyz and shawn/diesel with the hart foundation and it would be a perfect list edit: i forgot you gotta add the rockers and road warriors somewhere in the top 10 in my opinion but to each their own

Billy and chuck

@@mrgoateeexplosion he said HIS fav tag teams, nobody gives a fuck if you agree or not. Foh

Chilled with his family but wrestled overseas??? Is his family overseas or something? Seems like it would make more sense to wrestle on the biggest stage of your gonne wrestle.

I don't buy whatl Booker t is saying

Booker T and Ron Simmons Tag Team. "Damn" "Sucka"

4 of the best ever

Joshua Waiters Tru dat. I only remember Harlem Heat with Sister Sherri though

misterrightuk that was who I was referring to...

Joshua Waiters Sorry you lost me at Black Queen. Was that her nickname or something?

Jacqueline was with harlem heat and so was midnight

Same way I felt about Roddy Piper
