I loved his ladder match against Christian at TLC 2009, he was always incredibly athletic.

As a teenager I loved Shelton. The guy was great in the ring. Yeah he sucked on the mic but I feel he shouldn't have been on the mic in the first place. Being portrayed as a pupil of Angle I feel they could have made him into a similar wrestling machine gimmick without having him talk much.
Even in 2005 I don't see him as world champ material, but From 2011-2013 with 2 world titles I could see him winning Atleast one.

I agree he was poor on the mic, but a guy with that talent has wrestling abilities that speak for themselves

I'm sure creative could have found a better spot for Shelton Benjamin during his years in WWE. I think I heard Brock Lesnar demanded that Shelton get a contract at the same time he did. I don't understand why someone like Shelton can't be a top guy. Bret Hart was rewarded for his in ring skills and not his mic skills. Jeff Hardy was not a great talker, but was pushed to the top during his return. I think Benjamin had the it factor to be World champion.

Shelton had it all, but I read that he never really wanted to be a main eventer or champ. He certainly had the athleticism, and he evolved into a great mic worker. Some of his ECW/Gold Standard promos were hilarious.
