Shelton Benjamin reacted to huge praise from Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels believes Shelton Benjamin will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in the future.

The veteran wrestler reacted to the same during an interview with Chris Van Vliet. Benjamin mentioned that Michaels' statement was quite a huge compliment for him. He said:

"Yeah, that coming from Shawn Michaels was a huge compliment to me," Benjamin said. "Even when he said it, I was like, 'Oh.' You don't really think about that stuff when you get in the business. I was just thinking, 'Get into wrestling and have fun.' Because I grew up watching wrestling. So to be even being in that conversation of being a Hall of Famer, for me, is — yeah, I can't own it yet because when I first got into it, I thought I'd be done by now. So, again, to be in that conversation, I'm honored."

It now remains to be seen what's next in store for Benjamin in the professional wrestling world.
