For those who still keep up with WWE, what do you think of Shelton's mom? She is funny. She's loud and obnoxious. She's one of those mom's gets on there son about doing something. She's like, "Shelton, if you don't win, I'm going to pull out the belt." "Shelton, if you win, I will bake you a sweet potato pie". "Viscera, stop hurting my boy or I will hurt you"

...somebody needs to make a wrestling thread where everyone can post things that don't deserve their own thread, i.e. the post above.

I don't mind the angle. It's a pretty good comedic angle, and I think Shelton's mom (Thea Vidale) is doing a decent job getting Benjamin over as a heel. I do think that she could limit the amount of screaming, but realize how successful RVD was when he had Bill Alfonzo as his manager. Alfonzo blew that whistle the whole time, and sure that was annoying as hell (live or PPV). So yeah, it's good for a short term angle, but it shouldn't be dragged out for over a year.

Seriously though, they really need to give Shelton Benjamin the Intercontinental Title again. He was a pretty strong champ, and that heel element would really get him over.
