On the latest episode of the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T talked about Dennis Rodman’s induction into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2026. WWE announced that Rodman was entering this year’s Hall of Fame class late last week.
Booker said that Rodman contributed greatly to the wrestling business during his time with WCW and was always respectful to the boys in the locker room. You can check out some highlights below:
On Having Rodman in WCW:
“I wasn’t one of those guys on the roster who was hating on Dennis Rodman being in there. ‘He wasn’t a wrestler,’ this, that, and the other. No, I loved every minute of what Dennis Rodman brought to WCW at that time. It was the wild wild west. Hogan and those guys, they were just — man, it was a party, dog. It was a party with those guys. Cocaine and strippers? That’s the least of the party. I’m serious man, it was major man. And I was like a fly on the wall just watching it go down, and it was a spectacle. I loved it.”
On Rodman Going In:
“I’m pleased to see Dennis going in the Hall of Fame. I’m not gonna be one of those guys saying, ‘Ah, he never did anything for WWE.’ But he did a lot for the business, and I got a chance to see it up close and personal. I got a chance to see — like I say, it was wild, it was chaotic. It wasn’t anything wrestling-related. It was just like I said, a party when Dennis was around. But he was always cool to me, always. He was never one of those guys that you saw back in the locker room big leagueing the boys or anything like that. He was always cool.”
