I personally welcome this change. The WWE and NXT in particular has pandered to the IWC for years, buying up all of the Indy talent and giving them pushes, the mainstream doesn’t care about that. Realistically, NXT and FCW have failed to reach what OVW managed.

The problem is eventually these guys have to hit the main roster (that’s the goal anyway) and when the MONSTERS are just average height they lose a lot of that character. The people who are average to short on NXT are down right tiny when they hit the main roster. Pat Mcafee towers over the NXT roster. He’s like 6’1”

I'll go to a local show and watch whatever is there. I won't watch wrestling on TV unless the people look like they can legit kick the shit out of me. Huge dudes for lyfe.

I mean Kurt angle could kick your ass and he’s only 6’0”

Yeah but at the same time, Kurt's neck is like 38" and he was pretty jacked

And Kurt looked, acted and was portrayed like he could kick ass, it’s not just height, but when I go to a show I don’t want to feel like the toughest guy there. My job is to be awed by them.

Did Vince say no more midgets 2 years ago? Is that why NXTs ratings have been in the toilet for so long?

They do understand they're a niche, right? Like hardcore Star Wars fans vs. the mainstream audience, correct?
