Who has benefited from the roster changes the most?

[Don Carlito]

to be honest this is a hard one but i am going with Shelton Benjamin who do yuo guys think benefited the most so far?

[D-Dogg]

Well so far it would be Shelton Benajin i mean two matches, 2 wins and then not to mention that those 2 wins is against one of the best of all time i mean it does make for a good move lol.

But we don't know what the future hold Benjamin could just get forgotten about also Rene Dupree looks on abit of a role and RVD or Booker could also shine soon enough

[Roland]

Nidia of course, she now has the ability to hold the gold. I think Nidia has a lot to give to the Womens Division. I just didn't want to say Benjamin because everyone is gonna say that or possibly Booker T

[WordLife]

Definitely Shelton Benjamin. Without a Shadow of a doubt, I mean the man has beaten HHH 2 weeks in a row. How much more benefiting do you need? He has definitely benefited the best out of any of them.

[Booker Man]

Good questions. I went for Rob Van Dam because he should finally gets decent World title shot in the not to distant future. Of coarse Shelton Benjamin and Booker T are up there, but I thing Rob Van Dam will benefit from this.

[TooGood2Btrue]

it's all about the Benjamin, he has beaten the game 2 weeks in a row and he is gonna team up with benoit HBK and foley next week, nuff said

[JDog]

Gotta go with Benjamin, he was instantly thrown a huge push and has done great with it

Second would be Dupree, as he is also recieving a pretty good push as well towards the US Title

[Drunkacho]

I'd have to say Dupree has gained the most from the little roster 'reshuffle' a couple of weeks past.

The reason I say this is because he's no longer tied down to that La Resistance crap that the WWE called a gimmick. Since the reshuffle Dupree gets to showcase himself as a singles competitor, now you could argue the same for Benjamin. But the way I see it, Shelton really wasn't suffering where he was unlike Dupree.

I strongly disagree with Shelton, how many times has WWE had alittle guy take down a big superstar? The name Maven rings a bell. How far did it get him? Nowhere. Where did it get Spike, Shannon? Nowhere. It's just a phase which will not last. Booker T without a doubt, getting WWE title shots and becoming a big time heel on Smackdown!.

Bradshaw does not belong in this poll, yes he has Benefited but not from the draft, the draft had nothing to do with him, he wasn't drafted, he isn't feuding with anyone who got drafted, he wasn't even on RAW, The night of the draft. Faarooq's leaving was what triggered his push, but not even that was caused by the draft.

I think It's too early to even talk about who has Benefited most thus far.

[The_Ministry]

For now,it's shelton.....Beaten the game 2 times in a row!!Cool

[Harry Antlun]

Must say Dupree grandaddies, Dupree now won't have anything to do with La Resistance as he is now singles competitor. That is good of course and I encourage it. I can wait until this guy wins the US title.

this is half true, but he is still booked as a coward and keeps coming out with his dog that hurts his character if he indeed doesn't has anything to do with La Resistance he needs an image change like the one Haas got.

[MidCardMark]

For right now, I'd have to go with Shelton, but I think as we start to go further down the road, it's definately going to be Booker. The man is set up for a feud with the Undertaker for chrissakes! He's going to be the top heel on Smackdown pretty soon and that's a whole lot better than he would have ever gotten on Raw. Shelton and Haas were likely going to both get their shots at the singles' lime light and they would have both eventually made names for themselves off of huge pushes, but Booker's opportunites wouldn't have likely come along without the trades.

I thought I'd resurect this thread, I have chosen Dupree for now because Bradshaw's push was directly not created by the trade. Dupree has had three US Title Shots and Benjamin hasn't had a shot at any yet.

I would say Shelton Benjamin. Thus far, he has received the most character development and has been built up the best. He is starting to look more and more like a credible IC champion which he'll maybe end up being real soon.

People I thought would benefit the most would be RVD, Dupree, and Booker but each of these men are either being built poorly or just aren't being given the right feud and gimmick. Dupree could easily be Smackdown's version of Christian. IMO, he doesn't need the US championship right now. He is only 20 meaning that he has all the time in the world to get the belt. I would have him drop the French gimmick. He could begin to build himself up as a heel with matches on SD and promos every now and then to establish his character. Then further down the line when he looks like he is credible enough he could get an IC title shot. The difference between Benjamin and Dupree is that Benjamin has gotten more exposure and has proven himself as a tag wrestler while Dupree was just seen as an ok tag wrestler. Benjamin is now in the process of building himself up as a credible singles star before becoming IC champion while the WWE decided to push Dupree into a feud he isn't ready for at this stage of his career. The lack of superstars on the show may be part of what will hurt his WWE career before it gets started.

RVD and Booker I would have to say are the two biggest letdowns (not their faults). The WWE had a chance at developing a strong feud between the two which could have climaxed with some sort of a gimmick matchup maybe at Judgment Day or GAB (maybe a street fight). The two would have gained so much credibility from this feud and it could have been the feud that proved to everyone that they're true main eventers. Instead, RVD is stuck trying to get over the stale Dudleys and Booker's rise to the top of SD was ruined by Undertaker. The man could have easily of carried the spot of top heel on the show if the WWE atleast made him look like he had a chance against Taker and even made the smart choice and let him go over Taker. It's going to take something big to rebuild his character as they killed his heat by feeding him to a well passed his prime "special attraction".

[Caligirl]

I say Dupree.

He's gone from next to no wins on Raw to getting U.S. title shots on Smackdown.
