Booker T Reveals The Crowning Moment Of His Career: I Wouldn't Change It For Anything
Booker T has very fond memories of his run as 'King Bookah' in WWE.
The King Booker character was created after Booker won the 2006 King Of The Ring tournament. The gimmick was comedic in tone, but Booker ultimately pulled off what he calls his 'crowning moment' in WWE during this run.

Booker appeared on the Club 520 Podcast at WWE World and mentioned being very popular around the time of his match at WrestleMania 19 against Triple H. He mentioned being even more over as King Bookah a few years later and highlighted how much winning a World Championship under the WWE banner meant to him.
Booker T believes his King Booker run outshined WrestleMania 19
'At WrestleMania 19 against Hunter [Triple H], you said I was over. I should have won. Sh*t… in 2006, I was way more over then, bro. King Booker, King Booker—I mean, come on, I mean the greatest king of them all, the most revered king of them all. You know what, man, that was some of the best times, the best time in my wrestling career, with my lovely queen, Sharmell, at my side. She actually won Miss Black America in Indianapolis, Indiana, as well. That was a moment for us, man. Rey Mysterio, I give him big props, man, because what a worker. What a worker, man. I couldn't have done it without him. But that moment, that was my crowning moment.
'That was the moment for me that really put the icing on the cake as far as my career goes. You know, I don't know if you guys know the stats or anything like that, but out of the history and the annals of time, as far as the King of the Ring tournament, I'm the only king to ever win the [WWE] Heavyweight Championship. I'm the only one. And that wasn't by accident or anything like that; that was by design. I said after King Booker, they're gonna have to break the damn mold because there'll never be another King like me ever again. And I proved that. I proved that. So, no, man, it was a great time in my career. I wouldn't change it for anything.'
