Do you think JBL will ever get another title shot?? I hope so he was so good as a champ and was golden on the mic! The USA Title is too low for him... And yes for Beniot too. Both of them were great as champs... And that was when WWE was actualy worth watching.... They both had great fueds.. Beniot with HHH and JBL with Eddie. What more can you ask from a superstar? great fueds, great on the mic and great wrestlers.

Dude I agree with you. Both guys are main event quality but as far as the wwe is concerned both of them are old now above sortof 35 or something and they (wwe) are busy concentrating on new and young superstars.
What Would Kevin Do?

I hope so for both. JBL isn't the technical master Benoit is, but his physical, Stan Hansen esque style works well for him. Likewise, JBL is golden on the mic, Benoit isn't.
Heelwise, JBL is one of the best. He's great on the mic, shady, doesn't have a problem with cheating to win (as opposed to Trips). In fact, I'd argue that JBL is probably the best heel wrestler after HHH.

Yes, new and young guys like:
Mysterio: 31 - has been wrestling for like half of that
Angle: 37 - has been in WWE for 6 years
Batista: 37 - has been wrestling for almost 10 years
Randy Orton is the only other person I can think of that they're giving a push to. He's 26 in like 2 weeks, btw.
I wouldn't mind seeing either JBL or Benoit as champs. JBL seems to be the more likely choice, though.

Btw do you think that the Boogyman will end up just like Mordacai or whatever his name was?? Cause they look pretty simular

I'm assuming Boogeyman will eventually be Undertaker fodder.

Hey :p
Mordocai lasted all of 3 weeks though. Waste of time. And They look completely different :p
I fail to see how the boogyman will really be able to get over his gimmick, but sure many of us though the same about Kane, and now he's just a big red wuss. Then again, I wouldnt want to see the boogyman get any worse :)
I'd like to see JBL as WWE champ again, I thought his title run was brilliant. I would also like to see Beniot as champ again, but both of them are really stuck in limbo at the moment.

Okay, good, 'cause that woulda been dumb. I think Boogeyman's gimmick is beyond weird, that's why it worked.

Mysterio: 31 - has been wrestling for like half of that
Angle: 37 - has been in WWE for 6 years
Batista: 37 - has been wrestling for almost 10 years

Batista has been wrestling for 10 years!?
Edit: Holy shit he debuted in 1997. I did not know that.

And yes, they both will. I'm not sure they both will HOLD it, but they will each have title shots in their future. JBL's great on the mic and could put someone over by his mouth alone, and BEnoit's a solid mic worker and a man who could carry almost anyone to a good match.
Even if they do not appreciate Benoit, they will use him.
And even if JBL was a shitty draw, the WWE execs still love him, and will keep him as an upper-midcarder.

I wasn't keen on JBl the first time he held the belt, since i was a huge eddie fan, and i just couldnt get used to JBL as a main eventer. However since he lost the belts each week ive become to like JBL more, espically on the mic, his prmos are just hillarious, i would love for him to have another title run, just so i could appreicate watching it this time round.
As for benoit, i think he's unlucky, simple because if his mic skills were just tad better that you could put him into a catogry with Kurt angle that whenever you need a credble wrestling champ, benoit could be your man

I hope both of them will get another shot at it....although I am not a fan of the whole JB Layfield angle simply because it's basically the opposite of his former persona ie:Tatanka. I wish that he would return to the Bradshaw angle before he gets another title. As with Benoit he is absolutely GOLD I enjoy wathcing him wrestle every time I see him. He is at least an equal to Kurt Angle. By the way another wrestler who may never get another shot is Booker T, I beleive he is sadly the least likely to get another main event push for several reasons.

Not the least of which is he is retiring in like less then 2 years.

Booker was "retiring" years ago. You of all people shouldn't go making points like that :p

True, if Ric Flair can get a push at his age then I see no reason that Booker should retire.

Angle's 37??? Wow, I did NOT know that. I figured he was closer to Mysterio's age.

Angle's actually 65. He won his first gold medal with a broken FREAKIN' hip.

JBL was in every title match for 15 months
