Your whole point of singling out Benoit for his weak TV matches is horseshit, because that's pretty much what EVERY wrestler's TV performances are.

Trademark spots, and repeative matches are very different. For some good, great less than five minute tv matchs, take at look at like Jericho's WCW years, RVD when he first came to WWE, Cena, Brock, Orton is fairly decent even though I hate him for completely different reason. Last year, even the ladies in the women's div were putting on some soild 5 minute matches, Jazz is a hell of a worker. Storm is good when ever he isn't jobbing.
The thing with Beniot is that he only used 4 moves, maybe 5 during any tv match, and always in the same order. Again, I'm not just singling him out for doing this, but besides wrestling, he can't cut a promo to save his life. At least the Rock can, at least RVD can, at least Jericho can, at least HHH could, at least Cena can.
Beniot is suppose to be the man in the ring, and when he is boring as hell, with no other redeming quilities why should he get the belt. I know he has worked his ass off to get where he is, but so have a lot of other guys in the locker room. I'm singling Beniot out because he is suppose to entertain with every match, that is his claim to fame, and he hasn't lately.
