10 Underused WWE Superstars (And How They Should Be Booked)
6. Shelton Benjamin
Given that the singles division on RAW is stacked up right now, there is no place for the former Intercontinental Champion, Shelton Benjamin. Forming a tag team with an upcoming star is the only way he can make a place for himself on the show. Hence, it would be great if the creative team uses him in that division. 'The Gold Standard' can benefit a lot by joining the group of Seth Rollins. Just like 'The Architect' and Murphy, Benjamin is an in-ring technician.
Or, the writers could book him to reunite with Shorty G. The team of Chad Gable and Benjamin had received a positive response from the wrestling universe when they performed together on SmackDown Live! Unfortunately, the organisation disintegrated the unit and tried to launch Gable as a singles star. Since they could not achieve their targets, the backstage officials could move the former SmackDown Tag Team Champion to the red brand and allow him to work with Benjamin.
The 44-year-old veteran deserves a better stage to showcase his talent than the company's 'C' show, Main Event. The tag team division of the flagship show would benefit a lot with this addition.
