Kurt Angle Mark 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Booker T was hospitalized today at Fitzgerald Mercy Hospital in Philadelphia due to flu like symptons, including dehydration. Booker Huffman, 38, wrestled on Friday night in Wilkes-Barre, PA but was too ill to wrestle last night. He was in good spirits considering he was sick. At this point in time, it is believed he'll be flying home to Houston tomorrow and be unable to appear at Raw, which takes place at the First Union Center in Philadelphia. --thanks to Tom Robinson From wrestlingobserver.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Damnit- That's too bad he got sick. Good to know that he's in good spirits and hopefully he will get better shortly. A RAW without Regal, Booker and possibly Goldust?? Oh God Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Frankie Williams Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Wow. Booker T is 38? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Report post Posted May 11, 2003 I hope it's not that serious. I'm guessing he'll be back less than a week after the ppv. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Your Olympic Hero Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Give him Sprite, Dayquil, Chicken Soup STAT hahaha the SARS episode of South Park... gotta love it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted May 11, 2003 No Booker, Jericho jobbing to Nash, more HHH and pointless non-wrestling segments. RAW is gonna suck hard...but 'it could be worse'. Heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Well I am glad I decided not to waste 50 bucks on a ticket for tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest creativename Report post Posted May 12, 2003 What's with Booker and dehyrdation? He got dehyrated after the India thing too (which is obviously very understandable). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Dehyrdation? Stop taking Stacker 2. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest evilhomer Report post Posted May 12, 2003 The one good thing is that this is coming when he's in a downturn with nothing special going on. He's doesn't have a worthwhile story going on that will be hurt by his absence. Being the optimist, maybe he could get a returning star push if he's out for a signifigant time. Just make it no more than 2 weeks otherwise there might not be a show to return to The one thing that scares me is that this is how Regal's illness was first reported. Here's hoping that it's just a regular 48 hour flu. Get well soon...... SUCKAAAAAAA!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Obviously, Booker does not know how to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheArchiteck Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Noooooo....Booker is actually the number one reason I watch Raw! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Good thing he doesn't have any direction heading into this week's PPV. The creative team probably saw this coming which is why he's been wrestling the likes of Lance Storm since getting a no decision on his last rematch with HHH. It would make too much sense to still consider him the #1 contender since he technically never lost on his rematch. Go figure... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted May 12, 2003 I heard HHH sent Booker a basket of fried chicken and watermelon along with a "Get Well Soon.....so you can get back to dancing for me" card. Booker should be glad he's sick. It'll probably prevent him from jobbing to Three Minute Warning on PPV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
