Shelton Benjamin shares the story of his AEW debut and explains why that first match with Lio Rush is among his favorites from his 25-year career. He reveals how his disappointing last run at WWE led him to AEW, why he wasn’t surprised at all when WWE released him, and what was so different about leaving WWE for the second time. He remembers his run in OVW, the first time he met Chris Jericho, the chemistry he had with tag partner Charlie Haas, and all that Charlie did for him after his first release from WWE. He talks about Vince McMahon and the short-lived eye roll gimmick, the Hurt Business, the Hurt Syndicate, AEW’s Continental Classic Tournament, his experiences in New Japan learning the Japanese style, how Ring of Honor helped him gain a new perspective on the business, and the one big lesson he learned from his “wrestling dad,” Jerry Briscoe. Plus, Shelton opens up for the first time ever about his WWE travel buddy, Chris Benoit, and how Shelton’s still dealing with the shock of that horrific tragedy to this day.
