      This was a gut punch.
      I remember watching Thea Vidale on VHS when Tim Allen and Chris Rock was up and coming.
      I remember the segments briefly of her and Shelton.
      NEVER DID I COMPUTE UNTIL TODAY THAT WAS HER!

    Considering some of the truly awful stories that are allowed to come to a conclusion (not just WWE, mind you), it's unfortunate that Shelton and his Momma ended just like that. Granted, there are other factors to consider, so such an abrupt end to the angle is understandable.

    I think it would have been a good starting storyline for a new call-up. But considering the heights Benjamin had already reached in his career, it was undoubtedly a step down.

    Okay I was shocked hearing the story never finished because I think my child mind filled in the blanks. Because I remembered that no one ever hit mama and at most grabbed her arms but I thought to write her off they had someone attack her and that caused Shelton to fight back with the person for months. And the reason she never returned was it now was clear that it wasn't safe for her. But knowing WWE yeah I can see them changing the story a week after and just ignoring it.

    I'm with Shelton. The momma storyline does get a bad rap. I rather enjoyed it. Yes, he wasn't going to reach the main event with it but it could have eventually led to being a pretty over babyface where they could ease his momma off TV while he ascended to higher on the card. It just didn't work out for whatever reason.

    What's weird is they seemingly cut the finish and proceeded to make him what the result was gonna be anyway! That PrimeTime Deion Sanders bit could've worked had they finished. He said he was going to get his manhood back basically and stand on his own 2 feet. Well that can smoothly transition into him going overboard the opposite of mama's boy and being *overconfident*

    I think they personally did him dirty with the whole mama. Gimmick because you could just kind of tell something about it just wasn't working and I know the actress he was talking about. She was a good comedian but all in all it just didn't fit him. But I agree they didn't finish that story but it just was. How should I put this stereotypical black mother and that just wasn't going to get him over. They should have just putting with a nice sexy valet
