I know there are a lot inconsistencies and plot holes in wwe as mentioned in another thread but the weirdest thing for me is the cruiserweights. How come there is no interaction between the cruiserweights and the rest of the roster. Are they in their own parallel world ?

Good question that. They'll have their own little holding pen, or Vince keeps them locked away in the gents shitter.
I guess the main reason is that they have no connected storylines, and also they really would look like vanilla midgets next to a lot of the roster.

Gallagher in the Rumble is the only interaction there has been.
And I personally don't think it's a bad thing. Cause you know there is 0% chance that a cruiserweight would get the upper hand on a heavyweight in the WWE Universe.

Corbin also destroyed Kalisto and Kendrick in what was undoubtedly the most important CW title match to date. All things considered, it's probably best that they are in their own parallel universe of sorts.

I don't think it's a bad thing. Think about it in terms of boxing or MMA, if you're a fighter you pretty much focus on your own weight class and the others don't exist to you as you're focused on your potential opponents.

Ok it's not a bad thing especially when you think of how ridiculous some of Rey Mysterio's matches have looked when he was facing heavyweights like the Great Khali.
They could still be cruiserweights facing cruiserweights but they could also ally themselves with some heavyweights.

At the same time those matches are just a interesting as the stories pre-written, how will this smaller guy over come this massive monster. And it's not like they can't produce good matches, I remember Rey vs. Taker from the Rumble in 2010. That was a classic match and the size didn't hurt the match at all.

You have a point. Cruiserweights don't seem to have interaction with the main roster.
Cruiserweights have shown up on NXT occasionally. 2 weeks ago, Shinsuke Nakamura's return match was Vs. TJ Perkins.
Maybe when the UK program gets underway, we could see more crossover instances. Just about all of the UK Tournament roster fit the weight limit of the WWE Cruiserweight Division. In particular, Pete Dunne bills himself as a Bruiserweight & his weight is 205.

They shouldn't interact with the rest of the roster. Very few can talk and basically none of the roster is over at all.
