I think wrestling promoters in general like having bigger guys to be their main atractions. Doesn't matter if they're stiff like board with no conditioning what-so-ever.
I have a few questions. What exactly happened to the crusierweight division of the WWE? It was actually starting to get better with Rey, Hardy, Tajiri and Noble on Smackdown. Was it because of the shorter times for matches, lack of exposure or general lack of interest from the higher ups?
Come to think of it, what happened to Smackdown? Every Thursday there were high caliber matches from members of the "Smackdown 6" (Benoit, Angle, Misterio, Edge, Guerroro's). They were focusing more on the sport/competition part with guys like Benjamin and Haas ( I still think their name should have been "Best Damn Tag Team, Period", kinda like the foxsports show), and those matches were getting tremendous response from the crowd. Did management get tired of the style and move back to the entertainment mode?
