LOL at 2:04 I KNEW SHELTON WASNT BEING USED PROPERLY! Everyone has been saying that Shelton didn't want to be a main eventer and a world champion because it was too much work for him. But, you guys are WRONG! He wanted to be at the top. WWE let him go, because everyone else had a gimmick and he didn't. While everyone else had a character, Shelton was himself. WWE just lost one of their most pure talented wrestlers in HISTORY of the WWE.

I am so happy that shelton benjamin returned to wrestling and is having fun again also very proud of the fact of his newest achievement becoming a world champ finally in WWC reforming the WGTT in ROH great match shelton but only one thing Shelton give the wrestling fans the match of the decade by wrestling the Phenomenal A.J Styles and Kurt Angle of TNA as a true fan of the greatest wrestler today Mr. Shelton Benjamin those matches would energize wrestling again all over again

@nljuggalo

[nljuggalo]

@kedordu WWEkids should hire you. Check into the madhouse while your at it.

WHY DOESN'T HE JUST BE THIS PERSON HE IS AS HIS GIMMICK . HES TALKING !

[kedordu]

shelton benjamin needs a manager and a mask . and he need to be a monster heel .he needs to be like an undertaker personality . but like a genie . that plays into his colour as a slave . im not saying it in a racist way . but its clever .

[thendy88]

I don't understand why Shelton Benjamin didn't know he was in Svr 11... I played it before. He had a speaking role in the storyline...

[JacksonXxXWaWa]

Is wwe direcors are racist? thats why shelton didnt make big carrer in wwe that he deserve it ??

[limetheleamer]

yea for sure khali is a joke now...but benjamin never had the hype that kkhali had in his early days...to be honest...I think Shelton benjamin's career opportunities got snubbed cuz he came out with haas...nothin against haas...but together they werent really an exciting tag team relative to the others at the time...so they didnt get the boost they needed for their solo careers!

[mikej690]

@limetheleamer now khail's a joke, swagger despite he speak problem is a great athele but other then that he's a guy who gets buried alot. i could see shelton benjamin as a top guy

[limetheleamer]

@mikej690 Khali used to have that intimidation factor...and Swagger...he is a talker...he just has a speach impediment...iuno I just never cared for Shelton has a main event kinda guy...well he did have that match with micheals...which would become one of my favs

[mikej690]

@limetheleamer they told eddie would never be a wwe champion at all along with myserio and y2j but they'll all proved them wrong and besides if wwe can give great khail and jack swagger world championship gold then i dont see why not give shelton the world championship. khail doesnt have mic skills or in ring talent but he's won gold and when you look at swagger he isn't much of a talker
