Shelton Benjamin was set to return to WWE after a six-year absence and provide a much-needed boost to the SmackDown roster, but Benjamin announced on Twitter Sunday that a major injury will force him to "put pro-wrestling to the side."
I am both disappointed & sadden to announce that due to a serious injury to my shoulder I will not be returning to @WWE at this time.
