Can't wait to find out Triple H is the 32nd man and see him bury all of those vanilla midgets to become Crusierweight champ

i dont know about deeming guys cruiserweights again when a lot of those small guys end up being the most over people in your company.
Is that why they stopped the cruiser weight division?

AR Fox is like...the absolute worst of indie dudes with no sense of psychology or logic. He's worse than Teddy Hart in 2003-2006, but also lacking any of the charisma if Teddy.

I don't understand the logic of people thinking that being in a Cruiserweight division necessarily imposes a ceiling on someone's career.
If a smaller guy is truly main event material, he'll be able to rise up and challenge in the heavyweight division, with the added prestige of being "this great champion, moving up a weight class" like you see in Boxing all the time.
The majority of Cruiserweight guys have no business in the Heavyweight Title picture. Kallisto, for example. He can either spend his whole career doing the "david vs Goliath match" and looking like a midget out there, or he can fight other small guys, have exciting fast paced matches, and look like a boss in his own weight class.
Did anyone prefer Rey Mysterio's WWE run over his WCW run? In WCW he seemed like the absolute best guy in his weight class, a P4P beast to extend the boxing analogy. In WWE he was always "the plucky underdog", which made him seem like a loser.

Jacknifing interchangeable, indistinguishable vanilla midgets into bushes would be a great way to kick off the 5 year anniversary of the legendary "Fall of Nash" program I had with Punk and Hunter.
If it's just once a year, I see no problem with this. WWE is smart to just embrace the fact that everybody is aware of wrestling outside of WWE. WWE might as well eat too. And for some guys, it could really help them being seen on WWE/NXT tv. And them summerslam build months, if I recall correctly, are usually pretty dull.
WCW had a clear hierarchy and Rey rarely appeared on the second hour of nitro and never ever appeared on the third hour, though. You'd have to get rid of that mentality and have cruiseweight title matches and storylines main event Raw and PPVs to prove that point.
