In case you didn’t know…

Jason Jordan was introduced to the WWE Universe as part of popular Tag Team American Alpha alongside Chad Gable.

The heart of the matter

Speaking of which, the professional wrestling community has often noted Booker T’s seemingly negative comments against Jason Jordan; while the former helms the commentary desk on RAW.

On that note, Booker T clarified that although he isn’t a huge fan of Jordan, he isn’t going to hate the latter; and understands that opportunities in this business are few and far between. Furthermore, Booker T added:

“I’m not heeling on him (but) if I like you, I like you (and) if I don’t like you, I don’t like you—it’s that simple. To me, he has not proved himself to be a top guy on Monday Night RAW.”

“I don’t see one sign in the audience that says Jason Jordan is ‘my guy.’ If you ain’t got no signs out there, it tells me one thing - you ain’t that hot or people just don’t care about you. Right now, Jason Jordan is lukewarm.”

What’s next?

Jason Jordan presently competes for the on the RAW brand and was ousted from the red brand’s Survivor Series team earlier this week on RAW, and replaced by Triple H.

Author’s take

Jason Jordan is a highly-talented and athletically-gifted individual.

Honestly speaking, although one has to respect a veteran’s opinion, Jordan has all the makings of a top star in the business; and is likely to ascend to the top of the food chain over the next couple of years.
