He’s a 5-time world heavyweight champion! A multi-time tag team champ with his brother Stevie Ray. But, before “Harlem Heat” and before the “spinaroonie” there was the popular and humble Booker T! Take a trip back in time to the very first matches of the colorful Booker T! Singles competition, tag team action, and some great fun!

Robert Booker Tio Huffman (born May 1, 1965 in Houston, Texas), better known by his ring name, Booker T, is an American professional wrestler, currently performing for World Wrestling Entertainment on its ‘’SmackDown!'’ brand.

Above all else, King Booker is a survivor. Raised only by his mother, then parentless since age 14, the youngest of eight children did what residents from the notorious South Park section of Houston, Texas often do: adapt to life on the streets or become one of its victims. (“I’ve seen people shot and stabbed, who got killed right before my eyes,” he explains. “I didn’t grow up in the best part of town.”) While many students at Jack Yates High School turned to sports, Booker, a natural athlete, preferred entertaining people as a drum major and performing on stage—“telling a story,” as he puts it. To him, it was “a way out” of an otherwise harsh existence.

In 1987, he was arrested for robbing a Wendy’s and served 19 months in prison. With his brother Stevie Ray (Lance Huffman), they made their wrestling debuts in 1989. They wrestled in the Global Wrestling Federation as the Ebony Experience. He is currently married to Sharmell Sullivan, a former WCW Nitro Girl.
