Booker T comments on WWE taking superstars from his charity event

- The Houston Press has a story today that follows up on Mike Johnson’s earlier report that certain talents are pulling out of Booker T’s charity show in Houston on WrestleMania weekend.  They talked to Booker who said, “It’s not going to stop anything, we’re still going to go forward with it…We’re just replacing those people with actually bigger names.  I don’t think me doing my charity is going to hurt the revenue of WrestleMania, or hurt the Hall of Fame, and we’re not doing this, you know, to hurt WrestleMania…or ride their coattails or anything.”  They talked to World Wrestling Entertainment employee Robert Zimmerman who said, “I don’t even know what his charity deal is, to be perfectly honest with you.”
