I'm just rather curios. I mean what the hell does he see besides the WCW belt,sure its a nice belt but I've never seen a man so mesmorized by it. I mean football and soccer players are doing it too now. Man I want to see whats in the hand aswell. (Note:mostly just a joke forum but if anyone actually knows just please tell me)
Dude...the hand KNOWS THINGS! The hand shows Booker the way, as it shows all who ask their hand the way. Why do you think people who are in desperate need of a clue are told "talk to the hand?" DON'T YOU SEE?!

Maybe the hand (or more precisely, the glove) is actually a symbiote much like the "new" Spider-Man costume from 1984 that eventually became Venom? If so, then maybe Booker will get his shot at Hollywood that way, in one of the impending Spider-Man sequels. Although admittedly, he was quite hilarious in his version of The Scorpion King.
Booker T talks to the hand. Because the hand does understand.

I remember he started doing it when he was heeling on The Rock. They had him playing a psycho for a few months there where he would look to the hand all the time and I guess it just sorta stuck.
When he did the spinarooni in WCW, he'd glance at the hand but it wasn't part of the routine.
On the Booker T subject, I wanna know whatever happened to the Breath Right Nasal Strips?
Balence possibly? and/or . I remember in his second(or possibly first) WCW Heavyweight Championship(or possibly Championship) match with Kurt Angle he spinnaronnied up to his feet after Austin attacked Kurt Angle.
They should bring back that Booker T. and Goldust at the movies thing.
All the way to the York Foundation. If you recall, the woman we now know as "Terri"--her real name, of course, being Alexandra York--had a big, weighty, suitcase-laptop computer that ensured, that PREDICTED just what moves her would-be opponents would make, and just how to counter. Of course, as we all know, this system was highly fallible, and thus was used as little more than a blunt object. This is because computers simply weren't that advanced back then.
But that's the secret that's been so well-kept by the industry. "Terri" didn't come to the WWF for money, fame or employment, or even her 'husband'; no, that was in fact a clever ruse.
"Terri" came to the WWF to continue Project York.
She skipped from host-to-host to advance Project York, each time choosing someone suitable; Golddust was in fact a test subject. He didn't wear a bodysuit for the sake of style, ladies and gentlemen: he wore it to conceal the COMPUTER ATTACHED TO HIS SKIN. He didn't feel himself up to psyche out his opponents; that was how he read the computer's readings. The system, however, failed.
Advances in microtechnology continued; Val Venis became Alexandra's next test subject. By now, the computer was smaller--but thick. And thus was the explanation for Val's long hair: he wore it as such to cover the computer console IMPLANTED ON THE BACK OF HIS HEAD. (this is why, upon his return, he could comfortably have short hair; the console was removed.) This also explains his penchant for thumb-licking: again, the tactile transfer of electronic data, this time through a liquid-based medium, a perfect transmitter for electric signals. Val, however, failed the system: he licked his thumbs entirely TOO much, and short-circuited it. Project York had to begin again.
Then there was Meat. I'm not really sure what she was thinking with that one, either.
Finally, the government that had so long funded Project York grew tired of incompetent volunteer subjects--and thus, sent their best secret agent.
Bookington Top Secret--or, as we know him, Booker T.
His sheer skills of secrecy can be seen regularly, as he is a true master of disguise; he has successfully duped people under the guise of a fool, a sword-wielding warrior, and even a pastor. That is the true secret of the gloves: microtechnology has progressed to the point that the entire York Computer system has been compressed into one network of circuits, running through the fabric of Booker's gloves. He no longer needs to directly touch them; he merely looks at them and hears what they have to say. This model also incorporates the sheer physical density of the suitcase laptop: thus, they double as powerful weapons, explaining the sheer devastation his mighty fists rain down upon his opponents.
Do not fear Booker T or his godly hands, my friends: rejoice in them, for they may well save our lives.

*I* think it's actually the bastard hand from Mark Henry and Mae Young's love affair. He had it grafted on, to somersault himself to the top card.

I know this is a joke forum, but if anyone doesn't know, he looks at his hand holding up all five fingers because he's a five-time (five-time!) five-time (five-time!) five-time WCW champion, sucka.

Continue doing it because it's over. He doesn't actually remember why he started doing it. None of the wrestlers remember that far back. Does The Rock remember why he's no longer called Rocky Mavia? Does he remember being called Rocky Mavia? Does he remember The Union? Does anyone remember The Union?

He'd say Triple H's eulogy, since that's the only way that would happen?
Joke! I swear!

When he was a four-time WCW champion, before the loss to Angle and the return match and title recapture, he looked into four fingers. While that could have been four fingers for four tenures as WCW Champ, I believe that was four hundred years of oppression he was seeing. Now it's four hundred years of oppression, plus one of being held back by Triple H (the thumb).
What? It makes sense to me.
Who pissed in your cornflakes? Oh, wait. It was me. My apologies.

I personally do remember the Union! Oh how interesting it was. If I remeber right it was Shamrock,Show,Mankind and Test,can't remember them all.
