Guest tony manero Report post Posted December 1, 2005 To borrow a page from Steinbrenner, maybe Benjamin can go reclusive when under fire and just have his agent, some sorta Eisenberg or something, read press releases. Just another way to mask the fact that Shelton's not the best at reading from scripts. Just have someone actually read a script. Make no bones about it. But yeah, have him win the IC title and hold out for more pay. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just had an image of Clarence Mason pop into my head. Remember him?

Guest tony manero Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Is anyone going to a WWE event any time soon? If so, print out these ideas about Shelton being an arrogant athlete and give it to him in the parking lot while he's arriving to the ring and/or signing autographs. And tell him to read it over, grow some balls, and let Vince know about it. Otherwise, his first name will forever be prefaced with "Poor" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest New Jake Report post Posted December 1, 2005 PS:Learn to comprehend with typos you fucking idiots. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Learn to comprehend with this board's clientele. The Internet is a pedantic place, and you've just entered its deepest darkest corner. Hey, now we know who you are. (That itself was a reference to board-darling Arrested Development, when the guy calls George Michael "Stardork.") EDIT: No sooner than hitting "post" do I realize it should be "learn to comprehend this board's clientele," no "with." I wasn't kidding. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your the the first person who has actually been nice about my unaware mistakes (and my bitching in general). Ok, I opolagise for the "fucking idiots" remark. Should I edit that bit if it will make you happy? "My name is Shelton Benjamin and I'm MONEY (in the ring, in the building, in the aisle, on your television screen, backstage...it doesn't matter where I am) because I sparkle like diamond rings and shine like gold..." If that's kind of lame, he can say, "Because I'm the best damn thing y'all white bitches and crackers are ever gonna see..." If you wanna go further with the race card, he can say, "Whether you want to admit it or not, no white man can do what I do in this ring." And for future face refference, how about "This is one black SOB the white man AINT gonna hold down". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 To play up on the more boxingy part of the character, he'd need a training video/diary in the build up to a big PPV title match. Throw in all the Rocky cliches you could think of. Make it so self indulgent that people can't help but hate him...kinda like HHH's Beautiful Day video package of doom. Only, intentional.

jwpeer 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Have his agent hijack the production truck mid-match so they can show him doing sit-ups in the back I'd mark out for that so hard. I already like shelton, but he'd become the greatest personality ever. I feel that thesmartmarks.com should immediately be given creative control over shelton so we can give him the T.O.

Guest Coffey Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Ya know, regardless of whom won the match, it was still the shits. On top of that, it was just another throw-away match on Raw that no one will remember next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 I don't know, I'm starting to like calling him Poor Shelton. Hell, it'll mean that much more when he wins a match on RAW again sometime in 2008. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
