#4 Shelton Benjamin can't see Chad Gable

Shelton Benjamin had been teasing a new gimmick since a long while on the blue brand. He finally broke his silence on a recent episode, referring to Chad Gable as 'shorty'. It was later reported that Gable and Benjamin were both set to get new gimmicks, with new monikers of "Shorty G" and "Shelty B".

As Gable was being interviewed backstage, Shelton Benjamin appeared and made jokes on his height. He took it up a notch higher this time, pretending as if he couldn't see Gable because of his height. Benjamin then stared down at Gable and left the spot. Gable had the last laugh though, as he defeated Benjamin to advance to the next round of King of the Ring.

#3 Braun has an unusual choice for a breakfast

On a recent episode of Monday Night Raw, the makeshift team of Braun Strowman and Universal Champion Seth Rollins defeated The O.C. (Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows) to win the Raw Tag Team titles. On the latest episode of Raw, a Tag Team Turmoil Match was held, which ended with another newly-formed team, Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode, defeating Heavy Machinery.

At Clash of Champions, the heelish duo will face the Champions for the Tag Team gold. When WWE asked the fans on Twitter to give a name to the team of Roode and Ziggler, Strowman had a hilarious reply: 'Breakfast'! You can check out the tweet HERE.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
