#3 Worst Choice - Shelton Benjamin

Benjamin's newest gimmick of hearing voices doesn't exactly scream of success

Benjamin is still in great shape, but he isn't the best on the microphone or outside of a tag team. He's a great wrestler but it's just that he's a sign of WWE's past instead of the future. A good deal of the stars in the tournament are either in their prime or have only been on the main roster for a year or so.

His first-round match up with Chad Gable is weird because both men would probably have been used as first-round matches for other stars with better chances of winning. The whole new direction of a still shot on his face while he's hearing voices is just strange. It's led to nothing more than him calling Gable short.

He's been forgotten about for most of 2019. Along with those weird promos, to dust him off only for this tournament seems awfully lopsided. While I'm sure he'll most definitely give anyone a great match, it just seems like his time for any type of a substantial push has passed.
