DJ V Lawrence Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headli...es/4384288.html As I'm reading Chronicle online, I see this new article on King Booker, one of quite a few successful wrestlers to come from Houston. I knew who he was, but never knew there was a wrestling school owned by him Downtown (Booker T's Wrestling Academy). Apparantly, he's developing new local blood to become big-name stars in the wrestling world, giving H-Town more celeb cred as well. It was news to me when I first heard it. Thought it was interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrestling downtown at the J R Brown ;) I've actually seen Kamala on tv a few times to this day I've also heard that the Bushwhackers own a restaurant in Florida, but I'm not sure if it's true or not.
