Booker T has been impressed by Nick Aldis’ work on WWE programming so far, despite once believing the British star was past his prime.
On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T spoke about Aldis’ work on the blue brand, and comments in 2022 when he insinuated Aldis was past his prime. He said,
“I know people gave me a lot of flak when I said Nick Aldis was past his prime [in 2022]. I said that as far as his wrestling prime, because at that time, I think he was 36. I think most people have passed their prime at 36. That’s just fact, but I [was asked], is there a spot in WWE for Nick Aldis? I said ‘Hell yeah.’ I said this guy’s talented. He’s been around the world. I said Nick Aldis’ name will get there before he does.
“You know who Nick Aldis is immediately if you’re anywhere in the wrestling world. So him getting that job, stepping up to the plate, taking that job, and really managing that job, and doing it the way he’s done it, I give him big props.”
“Nick Aldis has a spot in the WWE, and now, he’s doing a hell of a job.”
Aldis joined WWE last year. He has previously competed for Impact Wrestling and the NWA and was a World Champion in both promotions.
