So,
In late 1997, Vince McMahon decided to bring in "minis action" which was midget wrestling.
Notable midget wrestlers included:
Mini Vader
Mini Mankind
Mini Goldust
Max Mini
I remember they really tried to get this over but ended up scrapping it early in 1998. I remember being pretty entertained by these guys sometimes and Max Mini in particular was pretty special.
You guys remember this?

What happened to Max Mini? According to Wikipedia, he did indeed wrestle in the 'Juniors' division on Smackdown in 2005 as 'Tzuki'. Not quite sure if he is still wrestling or not.  |

I liked seeing the minis especially on PPVs where it would be included as an extra match. It felt like I was getting more for the money. I thought a minis four on four match at Survivor Series would have been awesome and I was excited for the possibility for one until around the NOD match when I realized if it hadn't taken place yet it probably wouldn't be happening. They had some neat outfits and were great athletes. King was still a heel but but getting less heelish and past the time of King's Court though it would have been a neat extra to see Max Mini and King feud and have the little King's come back. But at the time King just wasn't the heel he was in 1994.

I liked Max Mini back then, but recently, Mascarita Morada who I saw at PWG's 'Kurt Russellreunion 3' show was excellent.
