WWE was on to something in the late '90's, when they were using Devon Storm, Brian Christopher, Taka, etc. - and they did use Hector Garza and guys like him earlier than that. Vince Russo even said [at the time he was known still as Vic Venom] that the cruisers were where it was at; yet the genius that McMahon was / is, he cut it short in favor of giving TV time to Albert, etc.

So while they didn't "need" them technically, they would've been a great asset to a company that was lacking, and in reality, is even worse off now than it was then.
