I can't believe he's 34 as he doesn't look that old.  Maybe he has a problem with management.  Jeff Hardy isn't very good at promos either and he seems to have slowly ascended up the ladder.  He also pushes a ton of merchandise though.  I thought that he would be getting a bigger push when  they brought in that actress to play his mother but that didn't go through.  He recently got moved to ECW, so maybe there's a chance here.  I just wished they used him more, even as a jobber who makes the main eventers look good and wrestles an entertaining match in the process.  I get kind of tired seeing the Big Show, Kane, Mark Henry in that role.  Unfortunately, I think management sees him as a mid level guy who can do some wild and crazy spots--hence his conclusion in the MITB matches, as he is never a credible threat to win those matches--but lacks the personality to be a main eventer.  FWIW, my favorite Shelton Benjamin match was a few years ago on Raw when he faced Shawn Michaels in the Gold rush tournament.

BTW, Hammy thanks for the invite
