Booker T Undergoes Surgery This Weekend, Misses RAW Pre-Show On Monday

As seen on the WWE Network and other digital platforms on Monday night prior, WWE Hall Of Famer Booker T was missing in action on the official WWE RAW pre-show this week.

Booker T’s wife, former WWE talent Sharmell Sullivan (Sharmell Huffman), noted via social media (see below) prior to RAW last night that Booker was hospitalized over the weekend.

She later posted an update, which can also be seen below, informing fans that he was back home and well, watching an episode of his Reality Of Wrestling (ROW) independent wrestling promotions cable show.

In an update, PWInsider.com is reporting that Booker T was in the hospital to have surgery on his elbow this weekend. Booker injured his triceps while executing a “Spinaroonie” during his WWE Hall Of Fame induction ceremony back in 2013. The surgery was said to be related to that injury.

No rest for the weary – or the hospitalized. Watching @realityofwrestling from his hospital bed. #ThisShowRocks! @bookertfivex @bookertfightsforkids
