The company’s mentality is that the best people entering the wrestling industry are generally of the smaller variety and they have to establish that small-sized wrestlers can headline or else face major depth issues in the future.
We’ll keep you posted.

Smaller guys also have a different wrestling style than traditional mat-based "big" wrestlers so it would make sense to push some smaller guys as a way to freshen up wrestling a bit. Crowd loves Bourne because he has a lot of "flashy" and high spot moves that they don't normally see in a main event match.
