I was actually sick when they started pushing him to become champ. I was a huge fan when he was putting on great matches for the IC Title. But really, I want a world champ who can do interviews, has personality, and can put himself over outside the ring. Plus he's just too heel-ish. Always with that bad guy scowl on his face and such.

GOD I miss HBK as champ!!!

Granted Benoit is a much better heel. I just feel it's unfair to pull the plug on Benoit's reign before he even gets a chance to make the belt look good. I mean shit he's had no build up to his feuds, he hasn't mainevented a PPV yet in a match that wasn't against HHH/HBK. He's been blatantly made to look unimportant, I mean he's the damn champion and how often was he on Raw tonight oh right once in the ME match, that's it. The rest was the HHH show for the 1000th time. They aren't giving him a chance to do shit and it's pissing me off. He could put on 5 star matches againt Jericho, HBK, but instead they throw him against a guy whose been made to look like a complete fool quite a number of times in the past , in Kanw. Then add in that Kane only became the #1 contender because of HBK, in an angle to further HBK vs HHH Part 9000 (I mean shit offically Kane didn't even eliminate HHH, HBK did. Do you know how stupid that made Kane look, and how unimportant that win ends up being as a result?). Then they don't even spend more than a week or two building up the Benoit vs Kane feud and what build up they did was pretty horrific in quality. The way these shows are going right now are complete and utter bullshit.

The Kane-Benoit match had a pretty bad build up, yes. However I COMPLETELY disagree about Benoit only getting TV time in the main event.

This all goes back to Benoit not having personality or mic skills. The man has amazing wrestling ability... that is all. Forcing a mic on him would only serve to make him look stupid. Instead, they let him come out for the main event to do what he's good at... wrestle. And Raw ends with him not only getting the win, but making Orton, a guy who they have spent months putting over, tap out. They are handling him PERFECTLY. If they wanna put him over as champ (And I don't think they should but, whatever) then they need to do it in the ring.

I for once agree with you (it's the end of time nnnnnoooooooooo). But I didn't watch a lot of it tonight I was watching this movie on the Three Stooges and the Return of the Pink Panther.

I'm as much of a purist as they get. Great wrestling is what it's all about. But when it comes down to it, I want to be into the characters who are wrestling and actually be able to feel some emotion coming from the match. With the face Benoit, you get none of that because his character is just not likeable.

I find his intense focus to be quite likeable.

Vince has to go for what sells and entertains. Benoit is a great wrestler but on the mic he is boring. Benoit isn't that entertaining.

as Much as you hate to admit it HHH does sell. Triple H is one of the best wrestlers and that isnt just my opionon. Wrestlers that work with Hunter express how safe they feel in the ring with him. HHH is by far the best heel. he can draw heat, he doesnt suck on the mic and he actually knows how to wrestle.

what the fuck?

His mic work is nothing anymore, his ring work is even less, I have not seen one quote about peopel feeling safe with Hunter (what that has to do with anything is beyond me), he doesn't draw (not since 2000 when he was actually good), so no I don't have to admit anything. HHH does not sell.

In EWR, Benoit is listed as "No gimmick needed"

Here it is...

"This wrestler doesn't need a fancy gimmick, he just wants to go out and kick some ass. Eg. Chris Benoit" - EWR

I think it suits Benoit perfectly...

It's too bad-guyish though. Plus when he gets all intense and the veins in his neck start popping out... bit annoying.

I think he should just go back to the cold killing machine heel. It's what he works best at, though he is likable as a face but I have a feeling once he loses the underdog gimmick he'll get stale quickly.

I like that, that's fire, that's intensity. Passion, these are things Benoit represent. Not every champion needs to be a mic worker, let Benoit do what he does best, wrestle and do it in a way so that he actually looks important.

I think he could be built up pretty well as a heel. I got my hopes up that he would turn after the match with HBK on Raw.

I fully agree, Turn him heel but do it while he's champion.


Or better yet, turn him into a guy who will take on anyone, face or heel, turn him into a guy who needs no one and wants no one, a lone wrecking force. He's the perfect person to be a silent killer who kills both faces and heel equally.

They should also give him a manager. Kinda like the "He's the only man who can control him" type manager.

A manager would have been good, back on SD, I'd have put him with Heyman. As it stands though there's no one to put him with and it's too late. The bottom line is Benoit (and as a result the championship belt) has been made to look like just an afterthought. Of course the WWE will not acknowledge this and merely claim he just couldn't run with the ball and that'll justify putting the belt back on HHH.

Johnny Nitro could manage him as a heel.

I don't really think it's too late though. I can almost garuntee Benoit will be main eventing next month's PPV since I doubt any match they could make now would be big enough to push the World Title match out of it's spot.

It needs to be a credible manager, Nitro is cool but not overly credible.

Oh no doubt but for all we know it could end up being against HHH. Or they could put him into some tag match

Nah. HHH-Benoit will probably be saved for Summer Slam.

I think Benoit is either going to face Orton or Edge next month. No clue what Triple H will be doing.

Make Benoit a 'fighting' champion. Like Lara said, have him defend the title regularly, and let him rack up some convincing wins over credible opponents. Ta-dah! Benoit gets over, title gets over.

That's what they're doing. He beat HHH and HBK cleanly 2 months in a row making both of them tap out. Doesn't get much more credible than that. Not to mention the whole two matches in one night thing.

They are doing somethings right yes, but then they take focus away from Benoit also, I mean hell part of WM XX turned into HHH vs HBK again. Through out it was still a large part about HHH vs HBK.

Yeah I know, but the whole 3 way dance feud was about HHH and HBK. All the shit about "HHH and HBK have another chance to regain the title and show who's more superior". Benoit was just another guy conveniently holding the championship for them to take, thank you very much. There wasn't much focus on Benoit's first PPV defence of the title.

And the tag title thing is just ridiculous. The tag division is in shambles (as noted by almost everyone here). Edge is returning! Benoit needs some credibility! Quick-fix: Give them the titles! La Resistance winning the titles was the best thing to happen to it, IMO. It just seemed ridiculous that Benoit would go for 2 titles, when it was so obvious that his feud with Kane was non-existant.

Or even better for a manager... what about Chris Nowinski? He's supposed to come back soon in a non-wrestling role from what I've heard. And he's got the personality to get over really fast. Plus, since Nowinski is the man, I would be forced to love Benoit by association.

No, crediblity is a must you cannot just throw a low carder into a managerial role of the World's Champion. Heyman is and remains the best option. Really the only option, unless they bring back Jim Cornette

But in a way, if you say the triple threats with HBK and HHH were all about building the HHH and HBK feud, doesn't the fact that he beat them both cleanly in consecutive months kinda say he is bigger than them and their feud?

Not really, you'd think that, but the way they began to build HHH vs HBK at Bad Blood, and just the whole general deal with Kane and the battle royale all of it made HHH vs HBK more important. HHH vs HBK became the focus and thus Benoit became an afterthought.
