Why Booker T Was Hospitalized This Weekend

As noted, Sharmell revealed on social media that Booker T was hospitalized over the weekend. This is why he missed tonight's RAW Pre-show.

Booker also tweeted that the Spin-a-roonie had been retired and now PWInsider reports that he had surgery on is elbow. Booker tore his triceps performing the move back in 2013 while being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and apparently this surgery was related to that injury.

As noted, the WWE Hall of Famer is already at home recovering:

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