Wrestlers who could/should have "made it" but were manlets and their height held them back.
I'll start with the #1 choice:

"Big" Jonathan Gresham really could have done something if only he wasn't Bron Breakker's size.

Why wwe doesn't have a cruiserweight title? I remember I used to love that weight in the Ruthless aggression era. I like manlets fighting giants but I think they should make that distinction, I don't know.

205 Live didn't really draw in the viewers.

Perry Saturn and Dean Malenko are the undisputed #1 & #2 examples of this.

Dean Malenko was on TV most weeks for 5 years. He made a lot of money in WCW. He made it. He just didn't succeed in the WWF, but he was already 40 by the time he got there.

Saturn was also a rocksolid midcarder for the better part of his decade. It's a shame The Eliminators never worked out.

wtf, scott wasn't a manlet. You probably only think that because he hung around a guy who is 7 ft tall a lot

I honestly don't think any wrestler from the past four decades has had his career potential crippled from lack of height more than this man
Dude was great in the ring, had a lot of intensity, and was an excellent promo. Plus he was around in the Attitude era and went to WWE
If he was just four inches taller (and to a lesser extent, didn't have the nagging injuries), I genuinely believe he would have gotten a mega-push in WWE and feuded with Austin, Rock and Triple Nose after paying his dues there for a few years

The Cruiserweight experiment failed 3 times. Just let it go.
