Stevie Ray Reveals Hulk Hogan's Reaction To Booker T's "N-Word" Promo

WCW legend and one-half of Harlem Heat Stevie Ray recently talked to the Shining Wizard podcast on reuniting with Booker T at Pro Wrestling Syndicate this Friday. One of the highlights from the interview was a story that has never before been revealed about the reaction of Booker T and Hulk Hogan to the infamous Spring Stampede promo:

“Well, It really bothered my brother. It really bothered him, whereas all the guys were ribbing him and were like, ‘What’s up n**ga?’ Randy Savage and whoever… They all got a big, big kick out of it. It was the pop of the night. So the next day, we go to do Nitro after the pay-per-view that Sunday and I remember I was sitting at a table, you know – we were in catering – I’m sitting at the table and Hogan walks in. So me and Hogan would always talk about cars and motorcycles, because he’s into cars much like myself. I think he was getting some food when Randy Savage came in and was like, ‘Hey, Hulk, what’s going on man? You know Booker T called you an n**ga?’ Then Hogan was like ‘That’s OK man, at least I’m a good n**ga.’ The whole catering area popped. I mean everybody in the catering room just popped. And I think that’s when some of the pressure kind of came off my brother. That’s a true story, I’ve never told it before… After Hogan did that, it pretty much died that day.”
