and is it just me or is this the perfect time for him to go heel and interfere in a match and cost a face the title because his face gimmick is getting boring and old (poorly portrayed by wwe)
 
I thought I read somewhere recently where on top of him needing some time off to heal up his body, that his wife was having some kind of major surgery on her spine/neck/back and he wouldn't be back until she was able to care for herself. It didn't sound good and as we all know....Family First.

I'll look around and see if I can find it again and post back.
 
He will return when he is done recovering.Recovery takes a long time.He hasnt been out long...Give him time.But i guarantee this..As soon as he returns to the ring...He will wrestle better and put on better matches since he will be at 100%...
 
yeh but he seemed to hav lost direction, hes gone from technically amazin to main eventer to us title (for 6 months) i c him as more of a main eventer than lashley or mr. kennedy and even rey mysterio.
 
hes gonna be smackdowns savior imo when he comes back, i think batista should go heel and they could have like a fatal four way match at the no mercy becuase i doubt hell be back for summerslam, the fatal fdourway would me batista(C)(HEEL)v.s King booker v.s lashley v.s Beniot
 
^Batista Heel is so old...I like him face.I want to see benoit be a main eventer and a heel...and a possible feud with batista or king booker for the title...
 
ya i want benoit to turn heel and fued with batista and taker. his character has gotten stale and boring and it would give him something exciting to go along with his wrestling
 
i don't really care wheter benoit is face or heel, he hasn't been heel since around 2002 i think. when he does come back he should be in the title hunt
 
yeah but i like him as a face, i think it would be a good match setup, like batista becoming the dominate heel but i also think lashley should go for the world championship 2 like they still have "unfinished" buisness( King booker and Lashley) the wwe writers just ended there feud witht he steel cage and maybe set up a tripple threat between lashley and beniot and batista and have beniot maybe screwed out of the title
 
When an mlb, nba, nfl athlete gets some injuries they're out for "the season" which could be 4-6 months or more depending on when the injury occurs. People seem to think that wrestlers are superhuman just because they've got "larger than life" characters. He'll be back when it's safe for him to return.

I know that a lot of people dislike it when he's not in the title hunt but not everyone can have the title or go for it all of the time. By not doing that he opens himself up to more opportunities for feuds, midcard accomplishments, etc which isn't exactly a bad thing. Additionally, he can spend years in the midcard but that doesn't take away from him being a main eventer. There's a difference between being a midcarder and being a main eventer in the midcard. Benoit is the latter.
 
benoit is a wrestler that can be a mid carder or main eventer... but he should turn heel when he returns

Oh, what great contribution to the thread. I now see why you have 766 posts and only been a member since June.

Anyway, if you followed Chris Benoit over his career, then you should know it doesn't really matter if hes face or heel, because hes a true definition of a wrestler. Chris Benoit isn't going to be remembered as a face or heel, but he'll be remembered for what he did in the ring. That's why you don't see him talk on the mic as much as other people, because he has nothing to prove. Even if hes a heel he doesn't need to try to get cheap heat over a mic or even do heel moves in the ring, because thats how much of a good wrestler he is. Just like Kurt Angle.

I mean its always good to see some mic work by wrestlers, and to see funny promos, but Chris Benoit doesn't have to do that. The WWE has other wrestlers for that. That's where Chris Benoit makes up for everything by his in ring performance. He's goes out and gives his all every match hes in for us the WWE fans, so for those who say hes stale, I don't see it unless your expecting him to do more than he already does.

In my eyes Chris Benoit will always be a main eventer whether he has a mid card or main event match. His in ring performances show you what he can do. Just because hes not in the main event all the time doesn't make him lose any credibility because he has mid card matches. All you can do is respect him for what he has done over the years for the fans and thats perform.

You know what to expect at this place these days so why are you always acting annoyed when you see it. You're making the choice to be here knowing how it's become.

Perhaps when hes ready to come back they'll put him in a feud with Angle (who might return to SD). Judging by most opinions on each of their abilities, that would help alot with smackdown ratings.
 
Either if he returns as Heel or stays as face, he definately deserves to have another run at the WHC. Possibly feuding with Booker and Batista, and like someone said earlier possibly have lashley pushed even more to have a 4 way hunt for it.

Yeah, I know its my choice to come here and I will continue too. Regardless of what it has become. I'm just hoping to see it turn out better.

Personally I don't see why Smackdown gets much lower ratings than Raw. I know Smackdown is taped and that adds to it. I also know it doesn't show in some places. I think it could be because of it being on Friday's, but I could be wrong. Smackdown has some decent matches. I would like to see some more Angle/Benoit matches. Every match that i've seen them in together was a pretty decent match.

Either way could work, if they decide to put Angle on Smackdown or if Angle stays in ECW. They could always put Benoit on a few ECW shows and at one the pay per views give them a match together. In the future I would also like to see a Benoit vs CM Punk match to see how it would turn out.

i agree. like look at edge, he is the champion but his big rivalry is with cena, who hasnt always been over as a face. also if u look at king booker it looks like he will feud with batista who isnt the best in ring wrestler.
