Why did Finlay beat Benoit

Blitzkrieg

That was dumb. Finlay is nice and all but the guy is a mid-carder at best..Benoit could have used a push towards something, instead another setback.

Tyler Durden

Should they be feuding. Hell yeah.

Should Finlay be beating Benoit. Maybe on Smackdown. Not on PPV

The Phantom

I guess Finlays been rewarded for all that he's done backstage.

Benoits stock has really fallen if you ask me. This is a guy who should be challenging for the World title. And with the depleted main eventers Smackdown has at this time, he would have been a very credable champion. A King of the Ring victory could possibly have given him the momentum to rise back up to the top of the card, but alas WWE continues to overlook him.

Blitzkrieg

I don't think he should at all.. It's like yeah give Benoit a run but to me they are not in the same league for Benoit to be losing like that..

Just my opinion though.

Tyler Durden

With Taker part time, Angle and Batista benched, Orton off TV, Benoit must be asking himself what's going on

Benoit has never been very good at promos. He relies on his wrestling ability to win him over. He has all the wrestling skills, but he lacks the charisma necessary to hold the gold.

I am not saying that Finlay should beat him, that guy just sucks.

Barfly, you think Finlay sucks? I have to disagree with you. Finlay is probably one of the best technical wrestlers in WWE.

I'll tell you why Finlay won and it is to continue his feud with Lashley which has been put on the backburner the past couple of weeks but I'm assuming it is still there.

Benoit is one of the few that doesn't need promo skills. He's over with what he does in the ring. He's an exception to the rule, but that's why the big push doesn't happen. Vinces world.

"What the hell is an aluminum falcon??!!"

Finlay and Benoit!!!! I'm stoked for that and can't see the problem with it. Benoit should come out on top of the fued though. I agree he needs that title push again.

I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

Tyler Durden

That's what I mean. Can you really be a fan of wrestling if Benoit & Finlay working super stiff and smacking the living crap out of each other doesn't interest you?

I'm not saying anyone doesn't think this'll be good, but you've got to be a 100% in it for the sports entertainment element type of guy if this doesn't appeal. In which case, may you rot in the hell of a Boogeyman versus Great Khali feud for the rest of your days!!
