I'm having trouble understanding the indie logic on this board. You guys bad mouth the old school body builders yet all the indy darlings grew up watching them, they are the inspiration for them. Most of these guys just emulate the attitude era style of wrestling which was headlined by Austin, Rock, Triple H, Goldberg and the mainstays like Hogan, Nash, Flair, and Sting. All of them are big guys, the majority of the top guys were big guys during the entire history of wrestling.
Now, let's look at some facts some of you will have trouble digesting. The two worse eras in wrestling were the New Generation and the current era. What do these both have in common? Lack of bodybuilding type wrestlers. The New Generation had Bret and Shawn while the top big guys were in WCW, which was had it's best period during this time. The current era, does has a lack of big guys. Vince has given plenty of indy guys pushes (Punk, Bryan, Owens, Balor, Styles) and the ratings are bad. The only time they do good is when Cena is champion.
You can post all you want how NJPW and ROH are popular, but the fact is they do not come close to the other WWE eras, and they haven't even matched there worse. You can delude yourself into thinking one day they will, but they won't.

Yes, I agree NJPW should push Kitamura.

Your argument doesn't take into account any variables besides body type which should already tell you it's flawed.
>creative
>booking
>Talent
>Marketing
>Merchandising
>Alternatives
>cultural forces
All of these feed into the success of a company, not just whether they have "Big guys" or not.

Big guys market better and sell more merchandise. Cultural forces aren't a factor, you're overthinking it. Booking does have something to do with it. Roman is finally face another big guy in Braun, people are eating it up

Oh...you're an idiot. I'm sorry

I'm sorry no one wants to watch small indy darlings on national television, please give me a large list of smaller guys who were major draws in the US. I'm sure you'll respond with a some names that may or may not be major draws and I will say "ok, now compare that to all the major draws who were big guys". Maybe then you will realize the list of big guys who are major draws is substantially bigger and undeniable.

The numbers (aka facts) say different.

It took you that long to figure it out?

/asp/ hate Indy darlings. Wtf

Cena is the the top merchandise seller and he isn't even full-time anymore

They have high hopes for the bigger rookies. Historically manlets and juniors never drew record rating or merch.
