It is pretty clear from the question that was asked that Shelton Benjamin will be a part of the 24/7 Championship picture going forward. I only want to ask Eric Bischoff and his team of writers one simple question- how is this segment funny at all?
Shelton Benjamin has never really been Santino Marella or R-Truth in terms of having great comedic timing. The fact that he rolls his eyes for no rhyme or reason week after week is not just a waste of his genuine athletic talent, but also of screen time, I feel.

This same screen time could have been given to Rusev who's been on the sidelines for a long time. Nakamura wasn't even on the show and he's the Intercontinental Champion.
I would just have this whole storyline with Shelton Benjamin scrapped for good, and insert him into the Intercontinental Championship picture again.
