According to PWInsider.com, WWE has been looking for a lot of mini wrestlers and personalities. At Extreme Rules, the report indicates that WWE might have a role for mini wrestler Short Sleeve Sampson for the El Torito vs. Hornswoggle match on the ER kickoff show, possibly as a referee.
Personally, I'm of the opinion....why? Between El Torito, Hornswoggle, Santino Marella, Emma and the soon to be arriving Adam Rose, WWE's well covered when it comes to harmless comedic characters to be used as filler. And, let's face it, serving as comedy relief is all that minis are gonna be used for, and that comedy relief is hardly the stuff dreams are made of. To be honest, I'm a bit surprised that some sort of human rights organization or representatives of little people or whatever haven't started chewing on WWE's ass in the past for the way they're portrayed; especially since there are a couple of hit reality shows involving people with dwarfism. After all, society is all about political correctness these days, to a fault really. In the report I read, the term "midget" was used and many with dwarfism consider it an offensive term. As I alluded to, minis aren't exactly portrayed in a dignified manner and never really have been in any pro wrestling company.
