Shelton Benjamin IMO is exactly the kind of wrestler that makes Vince look like a lunatic for being on his "No managers this isn't Jim Crockett Promotions dammit!" BS; Mans was exciting in the ring and could've soaked in some game w/a good mouthpiece instead of being stuck w/a comedy character cause he can't cut a good promo

Also I think Albert/A-Train shoulda got one legit shot at the main event

Mike Boring Sanders :russ: :russ: :russ:

Sanders was a natural on the mic, more than most current dudes can say.

Another one, I'd like to see Duke Derose's career if he didn't get stuck with a fukkin garbage man gimmick.

Shelton Benjamin is someone I really feel did not get to his ceiling during his first run, I was a big fan. Someone that talented, give them a mouthpiece, give them whatever gimmick to get em over imo.

Mustafa Ali still has an upside imo, if he never does anything else with his career, it's a shame
I’ll never forget going absolutely nuts when he beat HHH and the pop he got from the crowd. I hoping Shelton would go far, but I had this feeling it wasn’t going to happen - which it didn’t.

I'm a noted Helms mark. But when he first broke away from 3 Count I thought he was going to take off. I know he really got the Hurricane gimmick over but it wasn't an act that could be in serious programs.

I thought when he rebranded to Gregory Helms and went on that monster CW title run and started getting more work rate style against non cw's he was going to move into IC/US title territory.

Saw Elijah Burke was mentioned. I wasn't back into regularly watching but he was definitely one of the guys I really liked in WWECW. Thought he worked well enough and could talk.

Can't believe how bad Kennedy fumbled his chance. Though I do feel Orton and Cena not fukkin with him didn't help.

Muhammad Hassan... Great Look, Heat Magnet, A Heel that had a Point.

He did nothing wrong even, as Vince McMahon... Vincent Kennedy McMahon bent the knee and kissed UPN's ring.

Just one Heavyweight Title run, that was all that was needed.
