WWE NXT North American Champion Wes Lee is set to throw down against Carmelo Hayes, but before the match, the two stars had to sign the contract to make it official, and the proceedings would be overseen by announcer and WWE Legend Booker T. This is the first contract signing segment that Booker T has officiated since joining the NXT Commentary team, and it ended up being one for the books. Not only were Lee and Hayes (as well as Trick Williams) on fire, but Booker T was hilarious, dishing out catchphrases and funny moments all throughout, and fans were absolutely raving about it. You can check out some of those reactions starting on the next slide.

Lee and Hayes were on their A game, hitting each other with some solid promos and some entertaining jabs. Booker T would keep things moving and was great at getting good answers from both stars, and then the usual chaos happened where both stars got in each other’s faces, which typically leads to someone going through a table.
That didn’t happen here though, as Booker T got in both of their faces and told them it wasn’t happening. Then he delivered the effortless line “you can save that drama for your mama”, and you really can’t help but smile. Hopefully, Booker T does all of these moving forward, because this was fantastic, and you can check out some of the reactions starting on the next slide.
