Did Anyone Else Notice A De-Emphasis On Exaggerated Weights?

I think it's just wrestling finally admitting the chagne in bodytype; most top tier guys are smaller now.

Did you see Jackman next to Ziggler, Dolph looked like a high school kid next to Jackman. Hugh Jackman is 6'2, which makes Dolph under 6 foot tall, and he is way to lean to be 225.

John Cena is one of the larger guys, at least larger looking and he is billed at 240, which is a realistic number, if they are gonna bill him at 240, then they can't bill Miz at 242 can they?

You want to talk about the Evolution of a predator? Randy Orton is about 6'4, I know cause he is the same height as me and I've stood next to the guy; but he has always been billed heavy, even when he was slimming down, hell in the height of the Viper character he slimmed down to about 220, yet he was still billed 245 plus.

I worked out next to the Miz, Kofi and Bourne. In person; Miz is just over 200 lbs and benches 185 for partial reps, Kofi is 200 at veeeeery most and did nothing but curls; and even bourne looked like a middle school kid in sweats and had to weight about 150, hell he almost killed himself trying to do cleans with 135..."hang cleans" google it if all else fails.

Hell, I workout next to Monty Brown a couple times a week, he was billed at 6'2, 265...he is that big, probably heavier right now, but Imagine him standing next to the Brutus Beefcake, Monty is a larger guy, you can't bill the Brutus around 300 and Monty at 265; just won't work anymore.

If you really think Hogan is 6'7, go watch a Rent a Center commercial with him next to 6'4 Troy Aikman, Aikman looks taller

I honestly think they are just starting to be a bit more honest, a bit more realistic and are trying to show people that they aren't are roided up monsters, they are leaner athletes.
