Well, publicly, they are always saying that the more mat-based style is to save the careers of "these great young athletes, Bah gawd!" (sorry, I slip into JR-speak occasionally) But you're right, I'm sure it has more to do with the cruisers having a tendency to steal the show. Lord knows I watched plenty of WCW PPV's where the only memorable math was Rey vs Juvi or Dean Malenko vs Eddie Guerrero.
Of curse, one could say that the CW matches would also be a reason for the other workers on the card to work harder, but what do we know?
