Booker T went head to head with The Rock as soon as he debuted in the WWE. The Rock was an established star at that point and Booker was just taking his first steps. With both people being great talkers on the mic, they oozed class and their natural charisma meant that the fans started liking them immediately.
They had great matches too and this feud helped make Booker T feel like a star immediately, which is why he stood out amongst the rest of the WCW talents that were signed along with him. The two men also took on the NWO and that showed a different dimension.
It was reported that Batista and Booker T had real-life beef between them which spilt onto the screen as well. Because of their animosity towards each, the two men had great chemistry in the ring. They first began feuding back when Batista was part of Evolution, and that only continued later on in their careers.
Later on, when Booker became King Booker after winning the King of the Ring tournament, Batista was a babyface and went on to have some great and pulsating matches that brought the best out of each other.
