Roman Reigns is currently the biggest superstar in wrestling as he continues his iconic Universal title reign in WWE.

No wrestler would reject the opportunity to face Reigns given the momentum he's on. Even Booker T would will himself into returning to the ring to confront The Tribal Chief. Or so he says.

The five-time WCW Champion recently spoke to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Riju Dasgupta during a special Sportskeeda Wrestling Awards episode. The WWE Hall of Famer heaped praise on Reigns, calling him a "generational talent".

"Roman Reigns is one of those generational talents. A lot of people always say, what do you mean by that? And I try not to go too much into detail as far as what I think about him, but I always describe Roman - he's like the wind. You can feel it, but you can't touch it. That's what Roman is," stated Booker.

Booker T's last WWE match was in 2012, but he maintains himself physically and even told the fans to "expect the unexpected" when asked about his in-ring future.


#1. Ric Flair reacts to Goldberg still wrestling title matches at 55

Goldberg has attracted criticism for his limited in-ring ability throughout his career, but that has never affected his position on the match cards. Bill Goldberg is still competing for world titles, though fans have not always liked seeing the veteran being pushed to the top.

Ric Flair, however, came to Goldberg's defense, saying his former colleague deserved all the opportunities as he was a proven draw in the business.

The Nature Boy said that five-star matches meant nothing if they weren't drawing wrestling companies any money. Flair commended Goldberg's drawing power on his Woooo Nation Uncensored podcast, as you can view below:

"It's kind of like I say, the guys that made a name for themselves that mean something 10 years after they have been removed and can come back and mean something," said Flair. "Those are guys that are special. He drew money. Five-star matches mean nothing if you are not drawing money. We have seen a lot of star matches that don't draw money." (H/T Ringside News)

Goldberg competed at Elimination Chamber on Saturday, falling as expected to Roman Reigns in a short Universal Championship match. The bout was reportedly the last on his WWE contract.

Is Goldberg really done with WWE? If not, what's next for the former Universal Champion? Sound off in the comments section below.
