At this point, it's mostly Shelton's ringwork which is great.
He is VERY nervous on the microphone, which reminds me a lot of early Benoit. I don't know if he'll ever get over that...maybe he'll just have to get angry on the mic to really show what he's made of.
The only thing, Shelton suffers from "latter-day-WWE/John Cena" syndrome... which is a lame finisher. He's either using the Super Kick (which everyone from Lance Storm to Steven Richards uses) or that weird T-Bone Powerslam deal. I think the most mediocre wrestlers can make their matches -that- much more interesting if their finisher adds up (would anyone say they'd be hyped over Petey Williams if he didn't break out weird X-Factor looking moves and the Canadian Destroyer? And how lame was Scott Steiner in WWE without his Steiner Screwdriver?)...
while WWE is playing musical chairs with their finishers as of late, a lot of the new crop is missing out. Soon, we'll see someone using an umpteenth Flatliner for a finisher.
