10 WWE Stars Who NEED To Return To NXT

10. Shelton Benjamin

Starting off with our one and only 'cheat' entry, Shelton Benjamin has never actually been on NXT but he is tailor made for it.

At 44 years of age, Shelton Benjamin's days as a headliner are likely over, but he still has a lot of value as a gatekeeper for the next generation to prove their mettle against. Shelton's veteran status and in-ring credentials would make him an ideal opponent for the less experienced members of the NXT roster. A program against someone of Benjamin's credibility would be an instant boost to any fledgling talent, and anyone who could measure up to the former Gold Standard would be earmarked as one to watch.

To be fair, WWE seem to be using Shelton Benjamin in this manner on Main Event but a wrestler of his calibre deserves a wider platform to showcase his talents.
