Do you agree that back in the WCW during the late 90's you got some frightenly large men? put it this way you would not want too bump into them on a dark night.

Definitely. Scott Hall, Giant, Kevin Nash, were all huge guys. They made me look short haha. In my opinion the wrestlers in this day in age are much smaller than guys a couple years ago.

I'd rather have the little guys who can work such as Jericho, Punk, Bryan and Mysterio tbh.

Cool, but not the part about big superhero wrestlers that were the part of wrestling in the very beginning.
Do you like lucha libre, seabs?

I like most genres when performed well. We still have the big guys such as Cena, Zeke, Khali and Show. I'm not a fan of them unless they can work in some form. So I love guys like Hall (He wasn't that big was he anyway?).

Big guys who can work are the shit though. Hall was a good worker. Nash was good for what he did as a guy his size. The Giant was a great worker in WCW when he first came onto the scene.

I think you have to have a mix. I like ROH but when every match consists of one 5'10 guy against another it can get played out.

I agree variety is be good. The amount of times in most indies you see a suicide dive is amazing. It's like every 4th move is a dive.

I counted 43 suicide dives at ROH's 10th anniversary show

edit: Just saw your post about Hall. Hall was like 6'7 280 lbs

Scott Hall is way taller than 6'3 lmao

Closer to 6'5 or 6'6 in his prime. Maybe 6'3 nowadays
