Shelton Benjamin Says He Still Wants To Become The World Champion

AEW star Shelton Benjamin spoke with Gabby LeSpisa on the Gabby AF podcast on a number of topics, including how he still wants to become the World Champion.

Benjamin said, โ€œWhen it boils down to it, no matter what Iโ€™m doing, Iโ€™m definitely in it to be champion. I also get it; sometimes itโ€™s not your time, and the story is not about you, but no matter what Iโ€™m doing, Iโ€™m in it to win championships. Any title. Do I want it to be centered around me? Yes, I love the spotlight. Iโ€™ve always wanted the spotlight, but the people in charge have different plans, and when youโ€™re working for WWE, you go with whatever their plan is. Thatโ€™s okay. I can accept that. Make no mistake, I still want a world championship, and I want every accolade I can stack on my resume. I want to be champ. Period.โ€
