vanilla midget

A term created by Kevin Nash and popularized bu him and the Klique to describe workers who were good technical wrestlers but believed to be too small and/or boring to ever succeed on a large stage (Dean Malenko, Chris Benoit, Lance Storm.)

Signs of a wrestler being a vanilla midget are small stature, good technical wrestling, poor mic skills, and a rabid stubborn internet fandom.

Dean Malenko can put on a 5 star match to an internet fan but he's too much of a vanilla midget to ever main event a PPV.
