If a majority of wrestlers in this era are that size, and everyone does flips and dives and shit anymore, what is the point of pigeonholing some particular people as "cruiserweights" and not others?
Also doesn't help that a lot of NXT's big stars are around a similar weight to the Cruiser division. If WWE went by their old lightweight system, Cole would be considered as a cruiserweight and stuck on 205 Live instead of being given as big of a spotlight he has received in NXT.

Same for someone like Finn Balor who would be one under the current weight system.
