I don't like this at all:

#1: All of Benoit's face heat he has/had going for him would be killed by turning him heel. It would be like when Angle turned heel during the whole Alliance thing. It just makes no sense to turn a guy who had finally won the title at WM and achieved his lifelong dream to a standing ovation from the crowd. Turning him heel right after that would just confuse the audience IMO. Maybe down the line he can turn heel, but definately not right after he wins the title.

#2: Benoit taking over Evolution would kill the heat Orton's got going for him right now. Orton should be the one to take over Evolution if anyone ever does. Benoit doesn't fit in with Evolution and storyline wise, I don't think Orton would get along with Benoit. Now Orton would be a great opponent for Chris down the line when he gets a couple of more needed victories over some top guys.

I say if Benoit gets the title, make him a "Bret Hart" champion in that he defends the title all the time and NEVER backs down from any challenges. Let him take on all the heels and eventually have a big feud with someone along the way. It would be better if they turned someone else heel, who....I have no clue, to feud with Benoit.
