Following his exit, Benjamin has been wrestling in the independent circuit.During a recent appearance on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, The Gold Standard was asked if he was interested in making a third WWE run. Shelton Benjamin expressed openness to returning, but only if the company presented him with an offer that included the right financial compensation."I would definitely consider it. Like I said, it's the biggest game in town. So because I've worked there for so long, to answer your question, Yes I will go back if they offered me a position back and the right amount of money. Yes, of course, I will go back and I've said it before you'd be a fool not to at least consider it," he said.

So despite everything that's happened, despite people's opinion on creatively how they viewed me, it's still a business to me. I look at wrestling as a business. So I will make the best business decision, not personal decision." (H/T CVV)Shelton Benjamin reveals WWE scrapped storyline between him and current AEW starThe Gold Standard recently discussed that World Wrestling Entertainment rejected a romantic angle storyline with current AEW star Saraya (FKA Paige).Speaking to Metro, Shelton Benjamin shared that he pitched an idea to WWE which involved him being a bodyguard to Paige when she was the SmackDown General Manager during his second stint. The storyline would have seen their professional relationship develop into a romance, but ultimately, the plan was not implemented."(A) pitch I had, I wanted to be – this is when I came back the second time.
