He ha4 to know there woul4 be a backlash about such a sensitive topic. He was essentially trashing on at least one still favorite 4ecease4 wrestler E44ie Guerrero an4 one then favorite Benoit. Yes everyone can have their opinion but broa4casting it in an inflammatory way is gonna have this kin4 of reaction. It 4oes clear it up a bit though - Kev 4oesn't like any 'smaller' meaning shorter guys [even though both Benoit an4 E44ie were jacke4 regar4less of their height].
Won4er what height Kev starts liking a guy? Hulk is 6'7. Maybe there?

Is the mother-fucker asking the questions drunk or just a derelict? Jesus, he can't even talk...
Anyway.
I don't necessarily disagree with Nash. I miss the days of having larger-than-life characters too. I think a lot of people get carried away with it & try to make comparisons between the best small guys with the worst tall guys, like "so you prefer Khali over Mysterio?" but it's not about that at all. Nash makes a good point when he says that everyone looks like an Ambercrombie model. It's true. That's one of the biggest problems with WWE right now, is that everyone looks the same, talks the same, wrestles the same and has generic names like any other normal person you run into in life. So why pay to watch them?
The Great Khali might be the drizzling shits as far as being a performer, but you're not going to run into someone his size just going about your daily life in your town. You have to pay to see someone like that, like when the circus comes to town. Pro-wrestling comes from the Carnies, so that makes sense.
But I think you need the small guys too, just like the circus has the trapeze artists. You need the whole show, not just the Lion Tamer or the Clowns.
