This isn’t a dig at AJ Styles, because I’m a huge fan of him. But I’ve always wondered why wrestlers such as Balor, Bryan, Kofi, etc are considered by certain fans to be “vanilla midgets” because of how they look (being under 5ft10, not having an intimidating physique) yet no one ever seems to say this stuff at Styles. Styles is probably shorter than these people. Granted he’s probably more built than these guys, but he looks small next to someone like Drew or Orton. When Styles was champion, no one said anything about his look. Yet when it was Kofi/Bryan, all people seemed to say was how they were impossible to take seriously as champion due to their looks and size.
Again this is not me critiquing Styles, because I think he looks fine, I just don’t get why other wrestlers get this argument aimed at them but he never does. Is it a respect thing?
