In the Hogan era his physic alone would have made him a main eventer, but today that doesn't fly. Why do you think guys like Punk and Bryan are among the most popular? It's because the wrestling world has changed. Even the average fan is somewhat of a "smark" now.
A great big man will always get over more than a guy like Punk and Bryan. ALWAYS. Wrestlers are real life superheros, not your average ordinary guy. Nobody gives two fucks about workrate and that's what bothered the internet about Ryback: that a 300 pound muscle guy still gets crazy over with mediocre ring skills.
