fags like Omega and the Cucks can't handle their no charisma so they overcompensate by treating charisma as a joke but that's not talent. The gook fetish and the snarky attitudes have absolutely ruined wrestling. Benoit is a cautionary tale. He's a monster burning in hell. He was also 100x the pro wrestling talent any of today's losers could ever hope to be.

NEVER DREW A FUCKING DIME. Being a "great technical wrestler" is the worst cope in the world. ITS FUCKING PRETEND. WHO GIVES A SHIT IF HIS CHINESE BURN IS MORE PAINFUL!!! Hulk Hogan is the greatest of all time and he couldnt chain wrestle or grapple for shit. Just drop a leg drop on 'em and flex for the crowd

Wtf is zoomer about realising benoit sucked? They had to put Shawn in his big wrestlemania match, a guy from the previous era, just to make it less of an antidraw. Benoit never drew a fucking dime in his entire life, there's a reason they had to keep putting him with angle or jericho to justify his existence

He was very intense in the ring. he had that aura of "i'll fuck you up". Turned out he wasn't pretending his gimmick. Wrestling can get guys over. The reason why it doesn't work in AEW is that the wrestling is way more choreographed and the guys come off as pretending to be tough guys.

No he wasn't. He was the smark's favorite, HHH, because Hunter was using him as a defacto coach for younger talent. His old school methodology was being indoctrinated into the Brian Kendricks of the locker room, and for free? Hell yeah! So they threw the dog a bone, if only to show younger talents "this could be you."

WCW, because someone got hurt or kicked out of the horsemen and he took their spot.

He didn't give a fuck about that non-draw. Sullivan was getting set as booker and Benoit took his bitch. Also, WCW and Bischoff (before he got canned) talked a bunch of shit how these guys could only make it here and they have no leverage. Turns out that was bullshit because once those guys all left, WCW had no idea what to do with their fossils.
