10 Wrestlers Who Have Suddenly Vanished

10. Shelton Benjamin

WWE has looked like they were going to do something with Shelton Benjamin precisely twice since he rejoined the company in 2017:-

1. His initial mini-push as Chad Gable's second main roster tag partner.

2. Last year, when his whole deal was standing around backstage, eyes darting around the room, big smile etched across his face - with no payoff.

The man routinely goes missing from television for huge chunks of time, though he's clearly happy with how things are going, having recently inked a new multi-year deal with the promotion. Regardless, Shelton hasn't been seen on mainline WWE programming since Royal Rumble 2020. He was one of many wrestlers felled by Brock Lesnar that night and was well-utilised in a spot teasing the former Minnesota Stretching Crew teaming up to batter the comp. Benjamin was all for it, because of course he was, but 'The Beast' hilariously tossed him seconds later.

Prior to that, Shelton's last mainline appearance came on the 6 January episode of Raw. He was Aleister Black's squash match victim that night. He can currently be found trading wins with No Way Jose and other goobers on Main Event.
