Just Kidding. Shelton Benjamin is easily one of the top 5 wrestlers in the WWE in terms of mat skills, innovation, and the excitement he produces. But he doesn't get the same reception from the crowd as wrestlers of less skill. I think this could be bad for Shelton in the long run because the WWE has buried top wrestlers who haven't generated good crowd response. What do you guys think is the problem and what can WWE do to solve it? I think they should have had him beat HHH outright in a PPV match and kept on pushiing him when he first got to Raw.

Shelton is coming along just fine right now, if he keeps being as inovitive as he has been since Mania he'll be a main eventer in 18 months, don't push him too fast, they get stale and then boo'd

Thanks for the 90th Shelton thread in a week. You're welcome to jump on the bandwagon though.

I don't really like Shelton. He is atheletic and all, and puts on a good match, kind of. But he just hasn't caught my imagiantion, and I don't really give a shit about him.

He is no Kevin Nash.

I'm with BDC on this one, yeah sure he has great matches that are incredible displays of physical glory, but hell there are like 50 people in the world like that. Fuck watch RoH and you get the same thing. I don't know, I just don't care about him. Maybe it's the fact that his feuds have been odd or just kind of thrown together in my eyes. Then again I am a sucker for entertainment on the mic. Hence why Shane Douglas is one of my favorites of all time, wasn't incredible in the ring, but put a stick in his hand and you have gold. Yeah so I answered my own question, I am waiting to see some entertaining mic work from him, or a gimmick or anything that gets me to pay attention to him.

May God bless you Kane Knight.
And may He bless you with some intelligence, creativity, or a sense of the contemporary.

When RoH comes on TV I'll be happy to.
I hope for a new wardrobe selection for him. Maybe a different attitude change. Possibly a heel turn 4 or 5 months from now. I think he's the next Rumble winner personally.

Replace Shelton with Teddy Hart, man. All the athletism and skills, with more of the charisma and intangibles.

Teddy Hart is the fucking man...to hell with his rep being lower then Extreme Angle's.

Yes Teddy is the fucking man. If the wwe were smart, they'd pick him up some day. Hell if TNA were smart they'd re-sign the man. Who cares if he's got some attitude..HBK had some as well back in the day.

Sheltons doin just fine, as stated above, give him a lil over a year and dont cram him down the throats of fans, or he'll get stale. But he aint no Iron Shiek, that guy had charisma, his mic skills were GREAT!.........joke....not really.

Haha, holyhell, TPWW still has the Wallpaper i submitted in like 7th grade of Big Poppa Pump! HAHAAAA, Check it.
