Shelton Benjamin

Shelton Benjamin was supposed to return to WWE last summer, but after undergoing a physical exam, the company’s medical staff discovered that he had a shoulder injury which required surgery, thus his return was put on hold.

Shortly after the new year, Benjamin was asked on Twitter about his recover, and if he’d be physically able to wrestle at the Royal Rumble, and the former Intercontinental Champion responded by saying that he’s still several months away form being able to do anything physical. So it doesn’t look like we’ll see the Gold Standard at the Rumble.
