A Man With Unlimited Potential...

...but potential won't always buy you the groceries.
-Jim Ross, Wrestlemania 21

I am of course talking about Shelton Benjamin. It seems like just yesterday that Shelton was the Intercontinental Champion going into the Money in the Bank match at Wrestlemania 21. Surely that meant he had all kinds of momentum and would be a shoe in to win, right? No. Followed by no at next year's MitB, followed by being left off the card at 23, followed by being placed AGAIN in the MiTB at 24, and now AGAIN at 25. Are we seeing a pattern develop?

Recently, Shelton had retained the United States Championship for a long amount of time over the likes of Jimmy Wang Yang, R-Truth, and Chavo. He also dyed his hair blond.

Do you think it is too late for Shelton Benjamin? He's a great athlete, but for whatever reason, they've never done anything with him (except bring his mother to the ring). Even when he had the title, he didn't really enter into any hot feuds. What is the deal? Can he make it at the main event? Or is he a mid carder for the next few years?
