Booker T Highlights Top WWE & NXT Stars at Recent Events

After the WWE Money in the Bank and WWE NXT Heatwave events, wrestling fans are still excited about what’s to come. Looking ahead to next month’s SummerSlam, WWE Hall of Famer and current NXT commentator Booker T shared his thoughts on standout performers during this week’s episode of “The Hall of Fame” podcast.

Of all the stars who shined at Money in the Bank, Booker was most impressed with Tiffany Stratton. “She definitely rose to the occasion. She’s a star, baby. She’s a star,” Booker said. The 2024 Women’s Money in the Bank ladder match, Victor earned herself a golden opportunity to challenge for any title at any time she sees fit.

Outmaneuvering several top-tier competitors, including Chelsea Green in a thrilling battle to the briefcase, is just one way Stratton showcased her talents on Sunday night.

Booker then shifted his focus to last night’s NXT Heatwave event, where he said ‘All Ego’ Ethan Page took advantage of his moment like no other talent has before him.

“Six weeks since joining NXT, and now he’s the NXT Champion? What a ride this kid is on right now,” Booker exclaimed after noting Page had recently made the jump from AEW. “From day one, I saw something special in Ethan Page even when he was with AEW,” Booker said of Page as someone who always brought it every single time he stepped inside a squared circle.

“Him becoming champion is definitely a ‘flip the script’ moment”. AEW World Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks echoed that sentiment earlier today following their loss to Page & Scorpio Sky at Fight for the Fallen.

NXT has officially gone from its “Whoop That Trick” era into its new “All Ego” era thanks to last night’s shocking turn of events that saw Page capture gold, giving the brand a fresh start in many fans’ eyes.
