Shelton Benjamin is expected to return to WWE for the Smackdown brand upon his recovery from his rotator cuff injury. Now, according to the Wrestlign Observer Newsletter, there's talk that WWEmay do a stable featuring Shelton Benjamin, Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger. It would reportedly be a "shooters club" and something similar to WCW's Varsity Club featuring Rick Steiner, Kevin Sullivan, Mike Rotunda, Steve Williams and Dan Spivey.

It's a shame Kurt Angle is on the outs he'd be a great manager here


Outside of the box but Josh Barnett from the UFC would be a good manager for a stable like this too.

he probably still wants to wrestle, but if they could bring in him as their "coach" that would be cool. maybe only wrestle occasionally.

Damn that crowd was lit.

The Varsity Club idea is a good one...wouldn't mind seeing someone try to bring it back.

100% agreed.

Ziggler - minnesota kent state
Jason Jordan - indiana
Big e - Iowa
Jack swagger - Oklahoma

Toss them in some varsity jackets and they could out do the of crew

Big e is the only guy on the mic who could pull off this gimmick and it does not fit him like that.

Real talk,...no one is as good as bray and bo dallas's pops, mike rotunda.
Especially as a an antagonist to get you to hate him and then invest in someone he treated badly.

This angle was one of the best of its time and I don't necessarily see anyone doing it better.
It is an all time face comeuppance work and eclipses even George the animal Steele as the sentimental heel turned face character in quality.

It would rejuvenate everyone involved. It would give Ziggler and Swagger a new look, kinda like New Day did for Kofi... and it would give Shelton a boost upon his return, so that he doesn't just come back with a spark and then ends up in one spot by himself.

Also... imagine what they could do in a feud with American Alpha... :whew:

Different combinations of Benjamin/Ziggler, Ziggler/Swagger, Swagger/Benjamin vs Alpha, trying to win the tag titles until the right combo finally gets it done...

Stupid execution.
You have to storyline build it to get the emotional investment in the team forming.
