Do you think Shelton Benjamin's mic skills are that bad?
Many folks have said his inability to verbally connect are the reason he's never been a world title holder. Do you think it's that bad? I doubt it.
Compared to other champions' mic skills:
Jericho keeps saying the same 5 words: hypocrite, sycophant, bottom-feeding, never, and ever
Cena makes me think he's reading cue cards, while overacting
Edge is like a male drama queen
Khali was even World Heavyweight Champion
Why not Shelton?!
lol i guess wwe would rather have a person who cannot speak english vs a person that can...high five u have read my mind i think he'll get a good push soon
