Is Shelton a good wrestler?

Shelly B is a good wrestler, but his singles career has been very start and stop.

Honestly I think The Worlds Greatest Tag Team should have been kept together for at least another year before splitting and setting the two on singles tracks. They were a good tag team, and should have been given the chance to establish themselves as a great one.

Shelton hasn't exactly set the world on fire but it seemed in the past as soon as he got a bit of momentum going it was stopped soon after. But for a most of the time he's been a singles competitor he's been on the Triple H / John Cena / Vinnie Mac show. A good number of superstars have seen their momentum ebb under the same circumstances. Carlito is a prime example of a wrestler who went to Raw with a tonne of momentum, only for it to stall in no time.

Going to eCw hardly helped. He may have done well there ... but nobody was paying too much attention, especially once it became all about CM Punk.

It does seem he's getting another chance on Smackdown. And I think he'll do well, and make his way into the upper tier of wrestlers in wwe. If not actually carrying the belt, then certainly someone who can be a decent contender and step up to headline the odd ppv.

Surprised nobody has mentioned Chris Benoit yet, another good wrestler who had very little in the way of mic skills.
