5 WWE Legends who should return to the ring

#2 WWE Hall of Famer Booker T

Booker T needs no introduction.

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T started his own podcast, The Hall of Fame, with Brad Gilmore. It's nice to see the six-time world champion still engaged in professional wrestling, but an in-ring return to the global franchise would be much better.

In late 2020, Booker T posted a picture of himself in tremendous wrestling shape. When asked about a potential in-ring return, he uttered the typical response of "never say never." In hindsight, these might just be rumors, but coming out of retirement isn't something unprecedented in today's age.

Shawn Michaels came out of retirement for one night in November 2018, while Edge accomplished the unthinkable with his miraculous return in January 2020.

Booker T is one of the most underrated and overlooked stars of all time. The non-wrestling role that he adopted upon his return in 2011 was a waste of his talent.

As he showed in his program with Cody Rhodes, he hadn't lost a step in the ring. Like a true sportsman, he gladly put over the younger Rhodes brother. His wrestling career ended anti-climactically as he never received a proper retirement match.

Now that he has gotten back in ring shape, he should have his much-deserved farewell match. He may be past his prime, but he still manages to pull off the awe-inspiring Spinarooni. It doesn't have to be a technical classic, but Booker T has rarely disappointed fans in the ring.

Someone like Seth Rollins and AJ Styles would serve as solid opponents. They would bring the best out of the legend, and either man would receive a massive boost from defeating the Hall of Famer.
