WWE NXT commentator Booker T has shared his excitement over the acquisition of WWE by UFC parent company Endeavor.
Last week, it was announced that Endeavor will merge WWE and UFC into one company though both will be separate entities as part of the deal.
Speaking on his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker joked that he has already asked for a raise, and added,
“I’m loving it, man. I need tickets to every UFC big show. I mean, you know, I want to be in the media scrums. I want to be there, journey on the spot… This just brings me a little bit closer to something that I love oh so much.”
Booker went on to say that he’s been a UFC supporter since “day one,” so WWE merging with the company makes him feel like a “kid in a candy store.”
The deal between WWE and Endeavor is expected to be completed later this year.
