To me, and to an overwhelming portion of the audience? No.
To Vince McMahon? It's one of the most important things in the world.

Erm height not really because you can change your gimmick around that. Muscularity definitely.

Weird for me, like when they gave the Miz the title & had him face Cena at WM27, I couldn't see somebody His size & skill beating Cena. But guys like DB & Punk, it never bothered me that they were smaller than Cena & could beat him cleanly, I think what those guys lacked in size they made up in wrestling skill, so it seamed feasible to me

Kind of.
Somebody like Daniel Bryan is small, but I can believe he can kick a man's ass because of his style. If you don't have that level of believability then you shouldn't be a main eventer.

I think D-Bry out-wrestled everyone on the roster for years, so I think he proved that a smaller guy can definitely be deserving of the world title.

There are exceptions but for the most part, yes. The big guys are what drew me in as a kid. I'm pretty confident in the fact that I would have never gotten into it if I were a kid from this era. I just can't imagine looking up to guys that look average.

Kinda...
I can't buy into matches like Mysterio vs Big Show a win for Mysterio just isn't believable. But I guess that's depending on how the person is booked smaller guys are often "underdogs" Punk vs Lesnar I don't think would have worked if Punk hadn't been so successful before but the way the whole thing was booked made Punk look like a viable opponent for Brock.
In short, depends on how a person is booked.
Which is pretty much the answer for most wrestling related topics lol

To me, the only thing that matters is whether a wrestler can get over and is entertaining. That's it.

It doesn't matter until the announcers or another wrestler points it out. And from there, it can be a good thing or bad thing regardless of the size.
I'd say being a heel or face also plays a big part of how size is addressed.
My personal opinion? See any Undertaker vs Shawn Micheals match. Size shouldn't mean ****. You either have it and can show it or you don't.
Daniel Bryan has it. Brock Lesnar has it.

Size shouldn't matter anymore though since WWE is constantly telling you how scripted it is. If they blatantly tell you that it is all fictional then it makes no  ing sense to even care. "Oh Daniel Bryan could beat Brock!!" Yeah. That's really believable, right? Well they tell us it's all fictitious so who even cares? Wanna watch UFC? |

Size matters?... Try telling that to Seth... Lol it was really nothing to shout about... But in this day and age - yeah, sure we'll get more smaller wrestlers due to many reasons, but at the end of the day, as long as they can work and there are still some variety in body sizes/wrestling style - it's good for business. Variety means there's something for everyone. |

Size (of a wrestler) does not matter -- it's how they use it that matters.  |
