WWE News: Vince McMahon Sets Size Requirement for Prospective Talent, More
– Vince McMahon has told WWE scouts that are recruiting athletes as prospective talent that the athletes have to be at least 6’2″ and 240 pounds.

Vince believes that the top stars aren’t reaching a greater audience because they’re missing “the Superstar look.”
