he is a guy that if was given the right chances would deliever a lot of 5 star matches and we saw that he was capable of that when working with shawn michales and he is one of the top 5 of the best wrestlers in the world and i say top 5 because it is hard to rank the others over each other and if shelton could easily deliever such a preformance imagine what he would have done with the right storyline and honestly just reminds me of christian all the time
I was about so say he couldn’t cut a promo……… But then I remembered Jack swagger became world heavyweight champion and he couldn’t cut a promo for shit…. So yeah Shelton deserved a world championship
Yes. Shelton was and still is incredible. I firmly believe that if Brock had not left in 04, stayed longer and gained more favor with management, Shelton and Brock would’ve been in a faction together. Both would have Heyman as their mouthpiece, negating the one short coming in Sheltons game. They could have dominated, and eventually split, maybe with Heyman sticking with Shelton since Brock was Brock and didn’t need to speak much. Then they fued over the title, possibly with a blow off at Mania. I think there’s an alternate universe out there somewhere that Shelton is a multi time champion.
@@jayagainsthumanityhe could have had at least one of Cenas 16, edges 11, or Randy's 14. Hell Triple Hs 14. Shelton easily could and probably should have one of those world title reigns.
Intercontinental Champ 3 times, US Champ 1 time, Tag Champ 3 times, 24/7 Champ 3 times and thats only in wwe, FAR from underrated, you want underrated Alex Wright, Fit Finlay, Wrath(Bryan Clark) Elijah Burke, Sean O'Haire(rip) could go on and on with names of wrestlers that didnt accomplish as much like Benjamin did but were equal with in ring talent. But im pretty sure your saying that for another stupid reason....
@@JayCord00 You made my point for me, for as much as he has accomplished virtually no one knows who he is outside of niche group of hardcore wrestling fans.
Brock seems to be a very reserved guy. Probably not easy to make friends with, but seems like a guy who would ride with you for the long run if you do become friends.
That's pretty much what Shelton was saying. Taker said the same on another interview, Brock's not a people person. Reserved, private and surly, but the guys who befriend him like Shelton and Taker love the guy.
What? I never seen Brock Lesnar balance himself on the ropes and jump all the way across the ring so to insinuate Shelton’s only a good athlete because he’s able to keep up with Brock as if he’s the end all be all is ridiculous and actually an insult to him wth
If you ever see Shelton Benjamin and Brock Lesnar stuff in OVW as a tag team, they actually work pretty well as a tag team. I'm a little surprised they never truly did anything like a old school team up in the WWE. They missed the boat on that one
The only real callback to that was when Brock Lesnar and him met in the Royal Rumble, one on one. Brock and him hugged before and commentary briefly hinted at their history, then Brock just casually eliminated him. 😂😂😂
Most vivid memory I have of Shelton Benjamin's career (besides THAT sweet chin music) is his early days on RAW where he had a couple of upset victories over HHH. That was a fun storyline
Shelton must be one of the most underrated storytellers. His narration builds up everything so perfectly until Ron Simmons comes in and gives the audience the denouement: Damn!
Brock Lesnar is the definitely the most freakishly gifted athlete in the history of wrestling for a man to be so quick for he's size, and agility he is the complete package and probably one of the last people you wanna get into a fight with.
Imagine being able to do a wrestling move that Shelton Benjamin can’t do Edit: Didn’t expect that many likes in an hour lol. Hope everyone has a good night or day depending on where you are, and Chris keep up the good work
Shelton is so well spoken and so athletic. Why he doesn't get more credit and better pushes idk. Dude had fantastic matches against Sean Michaels, Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio etc
Can you imagine if Brock hit it CLEAN during WM19. Insanity. And it would be a honor to be trained by Shelton Benjamin. I tried to get into the business years ago. (I have a different look being Chinese, Japanese and Hawaiian) UPW (Cena was the Prototype there) accepted me but the 9-11 tragedy stopped the move in 2001. Had a match with Yuji Nagata and another with Dragon Gate. Did a Chikara event with Generico, Fire Ant, Eddie Kingston and others. Teddy Hart moonsaulted on my head. Almost had a match with AJ Styles. My FCW tryout was with AJ Lee and Adam Rose. I even got to do a promo in front of the Legendary Dusty Rhodes. I had a smackdown tryout where I helped a run in with Matt Hardy. It was a short run but my regrets are not getting to meet and learn from all of the wrestlers from that time. Much love to everyone on their path. I hope you get farther than me. I considered doing a podcast but i never really made it to the level of these men.
@@ZealKingdom Thank you for reading! I love hearing stories although it makes me sad I missed out. I was an Undertaker Druid too. That was fun. Maybe I'll do a video.
@Sage708 I'm aware of that but he doesn't have any regular season state. I'll admit that him being last to cut is impressive and a testament to his overall body of work.
@@PBMdanya its more then impressive. He went from 106-0 in college wrestling to 2x NCAA Champion then to the WWE, then NFL, then UFC Champion after a few fights and back to wrestling. 3 Careers which we strive to do or be 1 of those things, while he just went at it, and just smashed it.
@@HelloTH-cam89 That's nuts. The dude didn't even play college football just shows up in the NFL and beats out a bunch of guys that did ONLY that their whole lives.
I've never seen a heavy weight like Brock with the kind of agility he has. It's insane this man can move as quick as alot of light weights. His vertical is nuts too
It’s kinda cool to know that at one point in his career that he could do them as perfectly as Evan Bourne but hadn’t for so long that he knew he wasn’t able to do it as well in his match with Angle
Shelton was WAY better than you will ever realise absolutely perfect but never ever was treat that way, honestly 10/10 perfection it was ridiculous, he should of been a mega star imagine him and Brock with their history 1 on 1 with their own history Money
Brock did the shooting star press like a boss in a video game lol, first it's the jump to get to you, then stops in mid air to spin, that's the cue to dodge the attack, and then he falls straight down onto you.
Damn! Shelton seems to be a very cool and down-to-earth guy. Very much delighted to see his humbleness. Was a fan of him, now an even bigger fan of him.
It seems like basketball would be a bad fit for him because he's too big weight wise for his height to play the more smaller guard positions but too small height wise to play the larger power positions.
The first thing I think of when I think of Brock: I got to see and almost meet Brock in a parking lot for a house show probably 20 years ago and I couldn’t get over how massive he was. I was about 5 feet away and was going to ask for an autograph. Out of nowhere a security guard for the event came up to me and said, “I thought I told you to get out of here! LEAVE.” I’ve never seen this guard before in my life and I just got in the parking lot. Brock was just staring at me and there was people on a ledge about 10 feet away laughing at the guard scolding me. 😂 Mind you this was an open parking lot to everyone, this wasn’t some VIP entrance or something. I was like 14 at the time.
Excellent interview, Chris. Ad usual. I gotta admit, OVW fans in Louisville back in the day had it good. Brock and rest of the 02 class remain generational talents.
Listening to Shelton describing Brock's personality vs his on screen persona and I blurted out loud "well of course that's Brock for real that we see on TV... All the on screen persona is, is who he really is cranked up to over 9,000 (insert the sound of Vegeta's voice saying the quote here) at minimum... And that, imo, is one of the easiest kinds of characters to gravitate towards
I have this friend, 5 ft tall, Goldilocks look. She told me in her words " I met this guy UFC wrestler so scary, he is so big like a gorilla, all the men didnt want to approach him, is he any good, got an autograph for me bro, i took a picture with him n said nice to see u n smile" I saw the pic and it was brock Lesnar . So jealous n was like holy shit.
Shelton deserved so much better than the WWE. THEY DID NOT DESERVE THIS MAN. I have a feeling if UFC was around the time he was in his prime and decided to go that route he would’ve been world renowned. I’m glad he did what he did, but it will forever leave a bad taste in my mouth knowing this is one of the most underrated and flat out disrespected athletes ever in professional wrestling.
The ufc was around when he was in his prime. It wasn't as big as it is now, having to deal with politicians trying to shut them down, and when it was trying to revamp under Dana White and the Fertitta brothers, but he definitely could have given it a run. worldwide, mma was still big. Especially in Japan.
That could have easily been Lesnar if he had trained for 2004. But make no mistake about it, Angle’s one of the greatest sport wrestlers this country has ever produced. The fact he won a gold medal with a broken neck tells you that
So underused & underappreciated. The bad part of sports entertainment is gyys like Shelton get passed over. For a promo or a stupid story line. Benjamin/ Haas were very good and with Angle was even better. Shelton is a gifted talent and WWE totally overlooked that.
I always felt WWE never used Sheldon or Mark Henry right. Sheldon had the skill set, athleticism, and amateur pedigree to be just as successful as Kurt Angle. And they should have used Henry as a legit unstoppable force, the guy was the legit strongest human being on Earth for Christ's sakes. Yet they had him actually losing a match to Hornswaggle. Are u f!@#%g kidding me...
I’ve been doing a Ruthless Aggression Universe Mode for WWE 2K23, and this video has given me the idea to do Brock vs Shelton for the WWE Championship.
The thing most people get wrong is, Brock's shooting star press wasn't botched because he was heavier than his OVW days. He missed it because Angle was too far away. A foot closer and that would've been perfectly nailed on.
Also the ropes were wet and brock went for it with hesitation ,he didnt wish to do it, he was told it would be good and he did it after a long time with basically 1 practice try pre show
It’s such a Shame Shelton Benjamin never got that push he deserved I understand why but he was so fucking good! But never got his due. Damn it Shelton!
I'm actually in Saskatchewan right now not in the town but at a cabin its awesome to think I'm close to where Brock Lesnar lives I'm not stupid enough to go look for the Lesnar farm but yeah I'm in Brock Lesnar territory
Both Shelton & Brock are ridiculous all-around athletes. After Shelton graduated from U of M, he served as an assistant wrestling coach when Brock transferred in from Bismark State, & they were training partners & roommates
One of the coolest wrestlers of all time to me to go along with mvp, edge, randy orton, booker t, mark henry, boogeyman to name a few lol extremely athletic too.
Shelton, if you happen to read this, I’m the kid who used to have the “Shelton 3:16” sign at the old OVW shows. Thank you for being so kind back then, and it seems still today. You are still one of my favorites ever, and probably the best in ring worker ever. Congratulations on the great career you’ve had, I told you that you would make it. Far too talented to be ignored. 👍
Extremely surprised Brock never requested to do a storyline with Shelton, either as a tag team for fun or against each other. They can always do the Shelton trained him, so he knows all of Brock’s tricks storylines
I guess mental illness doesn’t escape anyone. When I saw Brock struggled with anxiety, I was like no way but then I thought “if I were his size, I’d struggle with it too…. I’d be afraid for others..”
I had a dream a couple nights ago where I met Brock and he insisted I go to with him to some sort of wrestling event. I remember being in the back seat of a car with him trying to get some random GPS map working on my phone, and he's just smiling in the other seat while I stress about not getting the GPS right before switching over to Google Maps. So, can confirm, if he likes you he's super nice!
Lotta big guys can do aerial moves now but Brock is still the only big guy who had hang time in the air imo. Its like he was floating in the air a bit when he was practicing those shooting star presses
Full interview: th-cam.com/video/0-Li8wgVA08/w-d-xo.html

Hey Chris how are you doing today thought you should know I like you show you do it’s amazing I wish I could do that. What are you do?

It was cool when Shelton entered the Rumble in 2020 when Brock was chucking everyone out but it also sucked because Brock just chucked Shelton out.
They did in OVW, but I agree, having the 2 of them together on the main roster would have been fun. Shelton is such a criminally underrated star.
I wish we could have seen Shelton do anything in the WWE. He’s the greatest athlete professional wrestling has ever seen
It should happen nowadays.
With Brock falling out of the title picture Shelton and Brock should make a great Tag team champion

Make Brock and Sheldon a team and wreck the whole locker room apart and become tag team champs, it will also push the championships to the moon.

In all seriousness Brock Lesnar is the most intimidating, scary person on the planet. He brings so much real credibility to pro wrestling..
The thing most people get wrong is, Brock's shooting star press wasn't botched because he was heavier than his OVW days. He missed it because Angle was too far away.

I've heard that he hates people bothering him in the gym, tbh, I'm exactly the same. Just do my workout and leave.

I'm actually in Saskatchewan right now not in the town but at a cabin its awesome to think I'm close to where Brock Lesnar lives I'm not stupid enough to go look for the Lesnar farm but yeah I'm in Brock Lesnar territory
One of the most underrated wrestlers of ALL-TIME.
There’s no excuse for Benjamin not being a world champion.
When other huge athletic people are impressed by the size and athleticism of another guy then you know that’s 1 of 1.
Both Shelton & Brock are ridiculous all-around athletes. After Shelton graduated from U of M, he served as an assistant wrestling coach when Brock transferred in from Bismark State, & they were training partners & roommates
The statement,"Brock is Brock" is on point.No need for much explanation 🤣🤣
Shelton is a nice speaker.
Shelton was a very underused talent!
One of the coolest wrestlers of all time to me to go along with mvp, edge, randy orton, booker t, mark henry, boogeyman to name a few lol extremely athletic too.
This is pleasing to watch
I would love a Brock/Shelton tag run before Brock retires!
Favorite WWE athlete. Love Lesnar🙏🏿🔥
Shelton, if you happen to read this, I’m the kid who used to have the “Shelton 3:16” sign at the old OVW shows. Thank you for being so kind back then, and it seems still today. You are still one of my favorites ever, and probably the best in ring worker ever. Congratulations on the great career you’ve had, I told you that you would make it. Far too talented to be ignored. 👍
Shelton, great talent in pro wrestling!
Extremely surprised Brock never requested to do a storyline with Shelton, either as a tag team for fun or against each other.
They can always do the Shelton trained him, so he knows all of Brock’s tricks storylines
I guess mental illness doesn’t escape anyone. When I saw Brock struggled with anxiety, I was like no way but then I thought “if I were his size, I’d struggle with it too…. I’d be afraid for others..”
Shelton should have had a run with one of the belts!
Brock Lesnar was in the NFL, WWE, UFC and back to WWE. Crazy…
I had a dream a couple nights ago where I met Brock and he insisted I go to with him to some sort of wrestling event. I remember being in the back seat of a car with him trying to get some random GPS map working on my phone, and he's just smiling in the other seat while I stress about not getting the GPS right before switching over to Google Maps. So, can confirm, if he likes you he's super nice!
Seeing Snelton makes me wish The Hurt Business got The Bloodline treatment but on MNR.
FACTS! They should have never broken up the hurt business
Shelton Benjamin is a gem.
I can’t help but love brock lesnar guy is a freak of nature
I love brock but gotta give props to Shelton. I love that dude, too. Tremendous between the ropes.
Lotta big guys can do aerial moves now but Brock is still the only big guy who had hang time in the air imo. Its like he was floating in the air a bit when he was practicing those shooting star presses
