I did... it really actually frustrated me because it looked like Benoit was gonna go for the headbutt but Lashley stood right up...

Yea, Lashley sold the germans horibly. Lashley didnt really even sell any move that benoit did. The match got a bit boring after I knew that it was pretty ovious that Lashley would win, but I still really liked benoit's performance though. I just really hate Lashley on raw now.

I knew Benoit would totally expose Lashley for the poor wrestler he truly is. I just feel sorry for Benoit because he once again did the j.o.b. to another crappy wrestler and it just buried him further, which pisses me off because Benoit is such a great wrestler.
But yeah, I did see Lashley no-sell a bunch of Benoit's stuff and if I were Benoit, I would've got pissed off in there and potatoed the bastard. Just get his attention and smarten up and friggin' sell or learn to sell the hard way.

I dont mind seeing Benoit do the job to MVP because that kid has potential to be a main eventer and future World Champion. I just can't even stomach watching Benoit get dominated by Lashley or Cena. Makes me sick.

Benoit on ECW gave me an idea. Okay scrap the hardcore show as it's just gone down the tubes, but maybe turn it into something else, the ultimate smarks wet dream. What I mean is take under-utilized guys that smarks cream over such as Regal and Finlay for example, keep the young guys with great technical skills such as Punk, and turn the show into a pure wrestling program. What I mean is no outlandish characters, no far fetched storylines (obviously it would still need story lines), don't even have spot monkeys really. You could keep the show an hour, and probably gain just as much if not mure in the rating than what you would lose.
I mean a roster such as
Finlay Benoit Regal Burke CM Punk Booker T Nick Dinsmore etc.

That's not the way it works, if Lashley broke Benoit in half for busting Lashley up side the head for No Selling him, the boys in the back would kill him when he got back. IE Booker, Undertaker, Finlay, ect... Not to mention I bet Benoit would kick Lashley's butt.It's about respect.

I'm just glad they finally took the belt of Lashley. He is one of the worst wrestlers in the WWE.

It's a work, if anything Lashley made Lashley look like sh*t for not selling it. I mean go and find a match with Lesnar vs Benoit. Sure Lesnar hardly selled, he was a manster.... but he sold properly, Lashley doesn't have a clue. I like Lashley but he's seriously greener than most divas.

You do realize WWE tells wrestlers how they want them to sell right? That means stop picking Lashley apart for every little thing. Atleast he's not the "ECW" champ, atleast your dreams will come true and see him never win the WWE spinner's title since Cena never loses. So, what is it that you are complaining about?

Maybe people feel he isn't World Championship material, think of that? I mean how many people are fully heartedly saying Shelton, Nitro, Carlito, ect.. should be champion? They haven't reached a complete point that makes them something special. In ring Lashley is green but has potential, obvious with his feud with Finlay in his early tenure. But what people don't get is Lashley is liked, alot of people are fans.... they just don't agree with the do or die push he's getting. See, WWE likes to make us deepthroat any babyface that gets an audible reaction. Simple as that, once they're over, nothing really matters in retrospect.
