People doubted me when I said the WWE was "grooming" him. I didn't say he was going to main event or anything, but people thought he was bound to be a jobber forever, for some reason, and now he's starting to get momentum. I probably just jinxed it, though.
As for Burchill's size, I think it is just the tights he is wearing. Burchill looked huge on the British scene, and he wore the smaller attire. He wore the long pants in the WWE, and looked smaller. Then he threw on the smaller tights and looked massive again.
Burchill could be one of those guys that can play a monster without being 300lbs. He's got the moveset for it. Between the Curb Stomp, Flying Knee Drop, his awesome moonsault, and Royal Mutilation, he is pretty set. If he used The C4 against smaller guys, it would be awesome, too. There is no reason he can't one day finish Evan Bourne off with that move.
Truthfully, I'd like to see a CM Punk vs. Paul Burchill feud over the Intercontinental Championship.
