Booker T Explains Why Ali Not Obtaining His Release Might Be A Good Thing

Mustafa Ali’s situation is one of the most discussed recently, but Booker T thinks there might be a good reason behind it as he explained on his Hall Of Fame podcast.

“Maybe that’s a good thing for Mustafa. I know sometimes you speak up and you’re ticked off about something and you’ll say anything, you know what I mean? Maybe time to cool down a little bit, maybe time to think about it a little bit. Maybe even have a real conversation, because sometimes I know you can get some respect when you speak your mind.”

Booker T compared Ali’s case to how CM Punk felt before the pipebomb: “I think Ali is talent. I think the character, like I said, that he pitched, that I saw was a good character that could perhaps been used. Maybe somebody has sat back and said, ‘let’s rethink this.’ Do you remember how miserable CM Punk was before the pipebomb moment? Then all of a sudden, boom, rocket on him, send him straight to the moon. Am I right? Mustafa Ali could perhaps be in that same position. Sometimes you speak up and somebody listens and says, ‘well maybe he’s right.’ I think that’s what it takes sometimes. Sometimes it takes getting to that point where you really do not care anymore.”

The former WCW Champion said that WWE might be wanting to think twice before losing Ali: “To lose a guy like that, you’ve really got to think about, sit back and think about it for a second, I am talking about it from the company’s perspective. They’ve got to sit back for a second and say, ‘wait a minute guys, what the hell? Let’s think about it for a second. Let’s not make some rash decision.’ That’s what I am talking about, this is business.”
