7 Reasons Why Being A "Big Man" Is Not Best For Business In WWE

5. There Are Fewer "Great Big Men" To Learn From

There are zero trainers who are seven feet tall in NXT. As well, if you're in the generation of wrestlers after Luke Harper, Braun Strowman and others, Big Show and Kane are likely to be gone as helpful performers to guide your learning curve. Thus, outside of watching videos from the likes of Andre the Giant, The Spoiler, The Undertaker, The Big Bossman, One Man Gang and so many more, it's going to be a rough road ahead for big men to truly learn the business of how to get over in an industry that is increasingly being pushed away from them. All of the small tools that have allowed those like The Undertaker to succeed aren't likely to be passed down, whereas the pieces intrinsic to the success of smaller wrestlers are likely to be more readily taught by the great plethora of smaller wrestlers around and thriving in WWE at-present. Thus, just by not having the tools necessary to excel being readily accessible, future big wrestlers in WWE are being engineered to be not-as-successful.
