Judgment Day
Shelton Benjamin vs John Morrison

At Judgment Day, two of the most athletic Superstars in WWE will unleash their rivalry on the WWE Universe as John Morrison takes on Shelton Benjamin.

Destiny has been moving these two driven, squared-circle technicians toward an explosive collision since Morrison premiered on SmackDown in Madison Square Garden. On that fateful night, The Shaman of Sexy educated Benjamin in the ways of the Palace of Wisdom, defeating the former United States Champion. This set the dangerous wheels of mayhem in motion, as Benjamin and Morrison launched a dual-brand rivalry, using both Thursday and Friday nights as a staging ground on which to wage their relentless physical and psychological warfare.

On “WWE Superstars” two weeks ago, The Gold Standard truly shined, interfering in Morrison’s match against Chris Jericho which led directly to his defeat. However, when Benjamin tried to proclaim “ain’t nobody stopping me, no!” on SmackDown - recruiting his former tag team champion partner Charlie Haas to topple Morrison - The Friday Night Delight lit Haas’ fire. His momentum then broke on through in the last week leading up to Judgment Day. First, on “WWE Superstars,” Morrison floored Benjamin after The Gold Standard lost to Rey Mysterio. Then, on Friday night, Morrison and his ‘mystery partner” CM Punk proved triumphant over Benjamin & Haas in a high-octane tag team match of mayhem.

Week after week, Morrison and Benjamin have fueled the fires, and now only the explosion remains. And when the combined skill and determination that these two Superstars have unloads itself upon the WWE Universe, they could very well steal the show.

Don’t miss Judgment Day, Sunday May 17 at 8/7 CT, only on pay-per-view.

With it being unknown how injured Mysterio is, this has a lot of potential to steal the show. It's great to see these two fighting again.

I can't wait to see this match. As I said in the other thread, the undercard is shaping up to be nearly perfect except for Cena/Show.

Depending on how good Mysterio/Jericho will be, this has potential to be the MOTN possibly. That is if they give it enough time. Hopefully this gets like twelve to fifteen minutes but I doubt it sadly.

Random as hell, I expect this to a be a total spotfest.

How can you describe it as random as hell when they have been feuding with each other?

For one and a half weeks? I dunno, I guess I'm more out of the loop than I thought...

This match-up needs a lot of time allowed for them to put on a great match. It definately could be the show stealer for me.

And, great move for putting this match on Pay-Per-View. It shows how both of these could be big time players in the future. And, Morrison's push.

I expected a US Title defense, but this is exciting news.

They've interacted together on the past three episodes of SD with a singles match, Benjamin commenting a Haas/Morrison match and the tag match on Friday with CM Punk. They also had an altercation on the last episode of Superstars.
