How does any of what you just said relate to the looks of the guys in question? I agree with you on the statement that no one can be a star if everyone gets a turn, but that's not at all determined by the look of their stars, it's in the booking. A guy like Bray Wyatt for example could be a huge star right now, but he's not because they keep having him lose literally every fight he picks. His physique has nothing to do with that.
Also I don't know what kind of "normal guys" you see on a daily basis, but I'd hardly call guys like Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Fin Balor, etc "normal." Dudes have abs on their abs for Christ's sake. Unless you're spending half your time in the gym daily I seriously doubt you see guys like that very often. This really just sounds like a height thing.
Oh, and "samey?" How?
You've got one of the most physically diverse rosters we've ever seen in wrestling history right now. Pretty much every body-type imaginable is on display.
