Therefore, Shelton is on HBK's level except for experience, which is a given.
Then ending, with the concern stuff and the helping out also played a huge part.
So old history aside, HBK did a tremendous job of putting Benjamin over. I guess he has changed.... hopefully that's the case at least.

You're right. The purview of the thread was specifically hwther or not they were put over match for match, not whether they were getting a push.
Nobody can control tomorrow (Well, none of us can), but the question of the here and now can be focused on. Any pushed wrestler can be dropped at any time, so I'm not going to worry about that. The question is "Did Michaels/Taker put Benjamin/Orton over," not "will the WWE waste this?"
