I never really knew why this guy stopped wrestling.What was it?Lack of size in the WWE? Hurting people with his suplexes?

Well first off WWE jobbed him to everyone, plus he had some sort of chronic shoulder injury. Then he just started doing color commentary. There are a ton of factors on why he stopped, it is a shame really, because he was phenominal.

basically what BDC said, but replace shoulder with neck
His neck is as messed up as Austin's, it would take a couple years of surgery and rehab to repare it.
I'd kill to see him be the Human Suplex Machine again, to be the One Man Crime Spree, but I've accepted that it won't happen.

Heidenreich VS Tazz :D
That'd be sweet.
He was in meanigless feuds in the WWE (JR and Jerry the King), was so weak during the Invasion (kept switching sides) and I believe he also has the record for the shortest time spent in the Royal Rumble.
Still...his debut was awesome, and his colour commentary is the best atm

It would be sweet if he got rehabed, and pulled a Shawn Micheals, and came back and beat people up. But I don't think he has the same sway Micheals and the Kliq have, so why go through surgery to job to the Dudleys.
If I remember correctly around the time he quit wrestling he said he just wasn't getting that feeling going out to the ring anymore. Obviously being jobbed to just about every person on the roster and not being allowed to do most of his suplexes didn't help there.

Think i read somewhere that angle was bitching about taking the t-bone suplex as well, really dont understand why the made him stop doing suplexes, i can't remember the last time i heard of a wrestler being injured by a suplex variation.
