One of the newest signees of All Elite Wrestling is the Gold Standard Shelton Benjamin. The former WWE United States Champion has been wrestling for almost two decades. He recently mentioned that he believes there are a certain group of fans who don’t see him the way he wants to be seen.
While speaking on the Busted Open Radio, Shelton Benjamin mentioned that some wrestling fans are not giving him enough credit and they don’t see him in the same light that he believes that he deserves to be viewed in. Benjamin also mentioned that he is not the same guy that he was in WWE.
“There’s a generation of wrestling fans out there who don’t view me in the light that I’d like to be viewed. Don’t view me in the light that I feel I earned and deserve. So there’s definitely a sense of image rehabilitation going on because I’m not that same guy from WWE. I’m not trying to be. While I cherish my time in WWE because it really changed my life for the better. I had more good memories than bad. But the bad memories that I have, I definitely want to make up for. Again, it’s not about proving myself to anybody as much as it is showing them what they’ve been missing this entire time,” Shelton Benjamin said. [H/T POST Wrestling]
