Where's Shelton Benjamin?

Recommended Posts

The connection of Benjamin now wearing biker shorts compared to the singlet from last year sounds almost similar to Jericho being a clean-shaven Undisputed Champion-turned long goatee-sporting jobber in 2002, or Tazz going from wearing a singlet like he did in his ECW days to suddenly losing most of his ECW persona by wearing "thug" attire and using a new, shitty catchphrase in 2000 that went: "Thug life born, thug life bred, and when the time is right, I'll be thug life DEAD!"

If they don't think his mic work is up to snuff there's two easy solutions

 

- put him in a tag team with someone who can talk to take the pressure off him. Big Show possibly. Or team him with Tajiri where you'd have a wealth of "odd couple" material for backstage skits and Shelton wouldn't be forced to deliver insincere bad-ass dialogue

 

- turn him heel and pair him up with Angle and Bischoff. Let them cover for him and he does his talking in the ring as their hitman.

 

Instead they just job him out and let him flounder, undoing a year long push. Real smart.

Why don't they just hire someone to TEACH them public speaking?

It's actually not that damn hard and even the worst of speakers can become at least decent.
