The "Old" Chris Benoit
Chris Benoit. The Rabid Wolverine. Toothless Aggression.
J.R.: "He's tapping out!!! But Benoit won't let go!!! BAH GAWD!!!" ![]() Anybody else remember this guy? Benoit used to deliver the most savage chops, the craziest german suplexes, and he did it all in a cold, methodical, and as J.R. would put it, "machine-like" fashion. This was the guy I used to go insane about. In my opinion, when Benoit first came to the WWE, he was one of the best mid-card heels around town. He put on a classic feud with Chris Jericho. He put on a classic feud with Angle( Too bad he was a good guy in all that ). And him and the Rock had a great(though short) mini-feud. ![]() ^(look at that tight ass bridge) Now lets take a look at what I get today: Chris Benoit getting his shit kicked every which way by Batista. Chris Benoit always having to beat the odds. Chris Benoit hugging Eugene. Chris Benoit pretending to have mic skills. Chris Benoit doesn't HUG people. He kicks their shit in. And he doesn't talk, either. Instead, he puts them in the crossface until either A) They shut up or B) Twelve Thousand referees rip him off the guy. People, were not seeing Chris Benoit at his best today. Were seeing him WATERED DOWN. Their making him everything a "face" is supposed to be. And I just don't dig that, because what were seeing is not the person the WWE has tried to convince us for years that he is. You know what would make me like this new Benoit? For him to give Triple H ten continuous german suplexes, while the crowd went crazy and counted along.(Remember Heyman as an Announcer? "J.R., I have no compassion for a man who gives another man 10 GERMAN SUPLEXES!!!" ) I'd also just like to see him sit there with someone in the crossface, as refs try to pull him off. People would love it. It would show everyone that he's still got that aggression and he's not some all-american good boy champ. Bring back the old Chris Benoit, I say!!! |
