Really tough one here, gave it to Beniot just to be a bit different.

One of the greatest inring workers of all time, such a shame.

Benoit's reign of upsets are coming to an end.

Stone Cold for the win.

If Benoit wins this, I will give up on rationalizing this tournament. He should have lost at least twice maybe 3 times already and with Flair and Hogan out Austin has to win the whole thing.

As much as Chris Benoit was a great technician, he in no means deserves to beat Steve Austin in this round. Steve Austin had some major title runs, while Chris Benoit's were less than memorable, Steve Austin takes this one by miles and miles for me.

I would like to see Benoit get further and after that travesty of Austin beating Flair maybe I should just select Benoit for the hell of it, however that would be the wrong answer here.

Hey, Austin beat Flair, what do you know. I guess somebody else on this forum has some sanity. I'd never have guessed.

Austin over the murderer.

As much as I love Benoit, I had to vote SCSA here. Felt he was better as Champion

I went with Benoit seeing as Flair got taken out of this tournament and the lack of Misawa and Kobashi offends me to the point, I think what the hell... Benoit should win on the basis Angle is beating Cena...

If anything, this tournament should either end up being Cena/ Austin or Benoit/ Cena... This is just jokez now.

Benoit has had a good run, but this time it has to be Austin.

Dude... seriously... shut the fuck up.

Now... Benoit had a good run. A real good run. And to all the naysayers downing Benoit... his one reign as champion was very impressive. His run towards the title was awesome. His run was awesome. But BUT Austin had impressive runs as champion.

Benoit was damn good... so sick and tired of people dissing him and downing him.

I am a very huge Benoit fan. Always have been and always will be despite the "incident". I don't take anything away from him at all because his title reign was awesome. I thought it was deserved and he worked well as champion.

However, he's up against the Greatest Champion of All-Time and the Greatest of All-Time so he's going to lose.

No Misawa and Kobashi is because they would be lucky to get 5 votes against Cena type guys. Sad but true.
