Something about it seems inhumane. Like when people are like "he isn't quite tall/strong enough" like they are evaluating cattle for purchase or something. Or like they are examining slaves to work in their cotton fields.

"This one is a strong fast runner and she'll breed well for ya, I reckon."

Searching for certain physical traits weirds me out. Probably necessary. Personally, I think anybody can be valuable in this business. Looks are apart of it, but not as much a part of it as the WWE seems to think.

You can say that about any athlete in any sport

Athletics is always about who performs better. The NFL does not give a fuck what you look like if you are outperforming everybody.

I understand that wrestling is a bit different, I'm just responding to your statement.

There's sports where if you are too small you won't even get a shot unless you have out of this world skill level. Look at the NHL. There's countless skilled players who were 5"8 170 who didn't even get a chance. Size and look still matters greatly, whether it's right or wrong. I made tons of teams based on the fact that I was 6"6. Actual sports and wrestling view size the same way : wow he's 6"6, if we could develop his talents he'd be a monster, as opposed to someone 5"8 with equal talent
