Ep 4. Booker T

In WWE's Most Wanted Treasures season 1 episode 4, titled "Booker T," fans get an inside look at the iconic wrestler's life and career. Booker T is a six-time world champion who has competed in several major wrestling promotions throughout his career, and this episode takes us on a journey to uncover some of his most prized possessions.

The episode begins with Stephanie McMahon, WWE's Chief Brand Officer, speaking about how much influence Booker T had on the industry. She notes that he was not only a highly successful wrestler, but also an actor, author, and TV host. We then see a brief montage of Booker's most memorable matches and moments from his career.

Next, we are introduced to the show's hosts, WWE archivist Ben Brown and Mankind (also known as Mick Foley), a former wrestler and WWE Hall of Famer. They explain that their goal is to find some of Booker T's most valuable possessions to add to WWE's archive – which is where they believe these items truly belong.

The first stop on their journey is to Booker T's old wrestling school in Houston, Texas. The space is now a gym, but the owner kindly allows them to snoop around and look for anything related to Booker T. They discover a few posters and flyers advertising his early matches, as well as a pair of his wrestling boots. The boots are pretty beat up, but the hosts are thrilled to have found such an important piece of wrestling history.

From there, they head to Booker T's house to meet with him and his wife, Sharmell. The couple is gracious hosts and invite the hosts inside to look for more treasures. In Booker's home office, they find a framed photo of him with Stone Cold Steve Austin, as well as several championship belts he won throughout his career.

But the real highlight of the visit comes when Booker shows them his most prized possession: his robe from WrestleMania XIX. The robe is absolutely stunning, with intricate beading and details. Booker talks about how important that night was for him, and how the robe serves as a symbol of all the hard work he put into his career.

The hosts are blown away by the robe, but Booker isn't quite ready to part with it. He says that he wants to keep the robe for a bit longer so that he can share it with his friends and family. The hosts are disappointed but understanding, and they move on to the next location.

This time, they go to the storage unit where Booker has been keeping some of his belongings. They find a bunch of boxes filled with old wrestling gear, magazines, and photos. As they sift through the boxes, they stumble upon a pair of gloves that Booker wore during his first world championship win.

The gloves are pretty worn out, but the hosts are excited to have found another piece of history. They also find a pair of sunglasses that Booker wore during his run as "King Booker," a gimmick he adopted later in his career. The hosts note that this was a pivotal moment in Booker's career since it showed a different side of him and helped him connect with fans in new ways.

Throughout the episode, the hosts have been trying to convince Booker to part with some of his most treasured possessions, with little success. However, towards the end of the episode, Booker has a change of heart. He agrees to give the hosts one of his most prized possessions, a pair of boots that he wore during his run as a commentator for WWE.

The boots are covered in signatures from various wrestlers, and Booker talks about how much fun he had during that time in his career. He also mentions that he wants younger wrestlers to be able to see and appreciate the history of the industry, which is why he's willing to part with this item.

The hosts are thrilled to have found this piece, and the episode ends on a high note. WWE's Most Wanted Treasures season 1 episode 4 is a must-watch for any wrestling fan, as it provides an intimate look at one of the industry's most iconic wrestlers and the items that helped shape his incredible career.
