Booker T On Security Breach At WrestleMania 42 Hotel: 'He Was Filming Me In The Bathroom'

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently said that WWE needed significantly better security at the MGM Grand hotel during WrestleMania 42 weekend in Las Vegas.

The two-time WWE Hall of Famer described the situation as the toughest he's ever dealt with in terms of fan behavior.

Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T detailed how fans were mobbing WWE wrestlers and legends throughout the hotel. He urged fans to give performers more privacy and space in the future.

"Walking through MGM Grand, we needed some better security at MGM Grand this year. Just because, it was really, really hard. I can only imagine what the superstars, the guys that's actually going out there and doing it in the ring, how it felt for them. Because I got mobbed, and I'm not even doing this anymore. So hopefully we can get that fixed."

Booker T said fans were camped out throughout the hotel and following wrestlers everywhere they went. The NXT commentator recounted one particularly egregious incident where a fan filmed him while he was in the bathroom.

"They were camped out, everywhere, they were camped out. You couldn't walk anywhere. And they were following you. In the bathroom, I remember the guy literally was filming me in the bathroom. And when I walked out he goes, 'Hey, Booker.' And I just kept walking because I was so mad because he was filming me in the bathroom."

The security problems extended throughout WrestleMania 42 weekend. After night two of the event, CM Punk knocked a fan's phone away as the fan was trying to film an interaction between AJ Lee and Bayley.

Security was reportedly an issue all weekend, with not enough being done to give talent privacy when they had to go through common areas where fans would be.

People were being disrespectful throughout the MGM Grand, creating an uncomfortable environment for WWE talent and legends alike.
