"Why does Vince only give *insert jacked up prototype of a wrestler* a chance to be world champ, while *insert small Indy/ internet darling* is getting buried?"
Two things. One: it's nothing personal, just business. Two: It's not just about the physique, it's more charisma than anything. Vince always has been looking for people that can sell to the general public, as well as gain media attention outside of the wrestling world. Look at the 80s with such eclectic personalities such as Hulk Hogan, Warrior, and Randy Savage, Iron Sheik, etc. their physiques were great, but their personalities made them marketable.
Even in the 90s, the best wrestlers that were pushed to the moon all had the ability to transcend the ring. Rock is now the highest paid actor in Hollywood, stone cold is in movies, had tv shows, commercials, and even made bald heads and jean shorts with a goatee look cool. Mankind was winning the race for times person of the year award until they DQd him.
The 00-10s have been more of the same. Stars like Jericho, HHH, Cena, rock, punk, and Daniel Bryan (who are both Internet darlings) etc. had the ability to talk or market themselves outside of the ring, which made them get pushed even more. The new problem that the WWE faces is that they can't produce a star, and now they're trying to force it and pray they strike gold now that their last batch of stars are all retiring or slowing down.
In the end, size has nothing to do with the reasons wrestlers don't get over, it's their charisma (or lack thereof). Most smarks forget that the WWE isn't like their run of the mill Indy fed. Its more business than sport, where the most marketable characters, not most jacked, get over.
