What size promotion is this? Am i making a WCW style product fuelled by an eccentric billionaire? Or am i starting this in a bingo hall? Where is it based?
Who is this hypothetical Nash? And the hypothetical Bryan? The question's flawed |

Depends what the cut off height is for your big man since the debate is basically Big Man vs technical wrestler. Cena himself is about half a foot smaller than Nash but isn't considered as a "Big Man" type nor is a technical wrestler and yet became a mega star.
I'd pick a "Bryan" type guy mostly because he can move merchandise since his gimmick is very popular with the crowd while being reliable to produce constant matches in the ring. Crowds also tend to get bored pretty easy from Big Men wrestlers which is why they get replaced at a faster rate than others for main event purposes. It doesn't mean the whole company revolves around "Bryan" type wrestlers since then you lose the thing that separates your company from others who just favor Big Men. |

I'm sure Bryan sells way more merch than Nash ever did. :l

D.Bryan.
Because he has 'til 5. ![]() Honestly, I don't really understand all this hero worship of Nash. He's like the anti-Cena in that people just profess their undying devotion to him for no reason. Like loving him is obligatory. Yeah, he's a funny/charismatic person, but I was never a super huge fan of his as a wrestler... he didn't really entertain me while he was in the ring. Didn't even really do it out of it until his Outsiders days. I also suspect if it weren't for the whole kliq/nWo thing, mostly everyone else wouldn't be such big fans either... he'd be "that one guy who Shawn Michaels used to hide behind back when he was being a chickenshit heel". Besides, if I were building said fed, I'd be building around Danielson like ECW built around Douglas, TNA (originally) did with AJ Styles, and WCW did with Sting. He would obviously be more affordable AND be physically able to work for me for years to come. Nash could put asses in seats off of his history, but if I'm doing my job in building/promoting correctly, I would have to worry more about WWE wanting him (Danielson) back or poaching any other talent they may take a shine to than people coming to my show for a "remember when...?" with Big Kev. Nostalgia can only get you so far, and after awhile, it'll get old. |

I think the question was a Bryan or Nash "type".
Not literally Bryan or Nash. |

I don't get the second thing in bold at all. The same could be said about so many other people and angles etc. If it weren't for the whole Hogan bodyslamming Andre thing... If it weren't for The Rock turning heel and becoming the Corporate Champion... If it weren't for Steve Austin cutting his hair and becoming a psychopath.... |

Clarification: I meant people (read: smarks, or people who thought they were) knowing about his relationship with his friends, not the actual nWo angle in and of itself.
Kinda like how Redman & Method Man made albums, movies, and TV shows together solely off the fact that they're close friends. In the realm of Hip-Hop, they had little to do with each other. People wanted to know more about the MSG curtain call and things of that nature. In this way, Nash became a point of interest for something besides just being a tall guy in a wrestling ring. Quote:

Sheamus is the new Diesel to me. He was great when he was a heel, so they turned him face and it hasn't been great.
