Shelton Benjamin Comments on WWE Return - Possible Return?

[Kenpachi Zaraki]

^^ I understand that from a money point of view and everything. What disturbs me is that Benjamin and Haas called ROH their new home. They signed contracts and they will probably be the next ROH Tag Team Champions.

I've always wanted WGTT to be in ROH, and now they are. So I seriously hope this was just a one night thing

You actually believe what they say

If he returns to WWE I lose all respect I had for him. He is under a contract with ROH, and could easily be the next ROH Tag Team Champion

LOL, you actually think he'd rather be RoH Tag Champion over doing nothing in WWE but getting paid tons more? Anyway, I'd rather him in WWE than anyone that's not CM Punk/Gabriel/Barrett in Nexus/Corre.

I don't get any of you....

[Travicity]

I would pick WWE if they actually used him.

[Smartmark]

^^ Right, cause everyhing WWE does is awesome now right?

My point is that as long as he is under a contract with ROH, be should not be doing this at all.

[Travicity]

Well quite a few have done it. But I told you dude it's all about going to the bigger promotion same with Daniels.

This argument is essentially the same as the Rock argument, only most folks are now arguing the opposite side. People shit on Rock for making $15 million per movie rather than $5 million per year with the WWE. To me, success in the entertainment business is based on how much you can make while you've got the chance to make it, not by how many belts you hold or awards you win. In the wrestling business, a business which offers you no insurance, no retirement plan, you gotta be a mercenary. If Shelton has the chance to leave for ROH for what would likely be a low 6-six figure deal, he'd be an idiot not to do so, regardless of where his place within ROH might be.

[Smartmark]

He would be an idiot if he breaks the deal with ROH

He would be an idiot if he breaks the deal with ROH

I'm not sure what Shelton made in his last run with the WWE but in 2006 he made $366,000. Say he only makes HALF that amount, you're gonna tell me he should stay in ROH so he can be their tag champ rather than take $183,000? Dude, c'mon. All due respect, you'd break whatever 'word' you gave for $183k. I damn sure know I would.

^^ If he does it all for the money. He should never sign with ROH and call it his new home!
