One thing that concerns me (if the WWE choose this route), is that Benoit simply doesn't have enough charisma to be in that role. In other words, if Benoit is NOT a main-eventer (or has no direction), then I can see the fans not really caring about him.....and this ofcourse, would be a shame.

Jericho can stay 'over' even in meaningless angles, because of his mic skills/charisma. If Benoit becomes a mid-carder on Raw, he could become another TEST (If Benoit becomes a mid-carder, he may not get enough TV/PPV time in order to allow his WRESTLING ability to 'keep him over').


p.s. Why can't Triple H and Shawn Michaels head to Smackdown?

That way - Benoit can have a credible title reign and face DIFFERENT opponents!
HHH will never go to SD because the company sees it as the B team. I could see HBK going over there once HHH has squeezed every 4 star match out of him that he can.

Benoit will be fine. Even when he was on SD he still managed to stay over doing tags, going for the US title, etc. I think the same will happen on RAW. His work is so good that no matter what spot they put him in his matches will always get over. Unfortunately he wont be in very many main events.
