#3. Hope isn't true: WWE reverting to traditional hiring ways?

WWE drastically changed their approach to the types of wrestlers that they hire. In the past decade, the company has shifted away from focusing on only larger-sized talent to a wide variety of superstars. In the last few years, it's undeniable that WWE pushed a lot of "smaller" stars.
With that said, Vince McMahon still seems to prefer larger-sized wrestlers, which perhaps explains his choice of the two current World Champions in WWE. With the mass releases happening on a more frequent basis, there are several gaps to fill.

There was a rumor that WWE will fill that gap with call-ups from NXT, but that will only work up to an extent. Dave Meltzer revealed on Wrestling Observer Radio that there has been another shift and the promotion is now focusing on hiring younger and bigger superstars:
"Yeah, I haven't finished my story on it, but the one thing I noticed, and there are a couple of exceptions, is that I mean, they gutted the 205 Live guys that had been around for a long time. The guys that they got rid of were the guys they weren't going to, you know, they weren't going to do anything with the guys, and they were mostly older guys," stated Dave Meltzer.
Meltzer explained the logic behind Vince McMahon and WWE's decision:
"I know that there is a movement to bring in younger and bigger guys, you know, that's like the big thing right now there. 26 and under, over 220 (pounds), that type of mentality again. Whenever business is bad, or whatever you want to call it, let's say popularity is so-so at this point. You can't say business is bad. I mean, in traditional metrics, it's not great, but whenever that happens, Vince is always going to go back to his intuition, which is always, 'We need bigger guys,'" added Dave Meltzer.
We hope this isn't true because bigger wrestlers won't amount to higher ratings if they're booked the same way. WWE hasn't been great with the handling of traditional "big men", but this change in mentality could be a setback.
