Anyone else find it strange how Triple H teased Ricardo Rodriguez and CM Punk's physiques when he's constantly putting over Kevin Owens? Not only that but the plan to keep Bray Wyatt relevant and strong, and the fact Bull Dempsey has a job.
Owens is a beast, Wyatt is entertaining, Bull is a... worthy enough big guy obstacle, but I can't help but find it strange, with Triple H's track record they seem like the kind of guys he would bury because he's not part of the needle club.

Not really. He mocked the shit out of Chris Masters ("How to lose 50 lbs. of muscle in a week") too.
Wyatt likely gets a pass from Hunter because Hunter's an NWA mark and Wyatt's dad is an old NWA/WCW guy.
He mocked Punk because Punk hated him.
As for Ricardo, WWE never saw anything in him in the first place. They hired him because he owned a tuxedo.

Off the top of my head I can also remember him taking a shot at Mark Henry (Why do your abs go all the way around your back like that?), I think Stephanie called Big Show fat during the whole 'Big Show is sad again' angle that lead to the least exciting championship match ever.
These two are storyline examples but I've noticed he passes off a lot of digs as 'being in character'.
Then you have the whole Booker T thing, he may be passed weight bullying but until he takes a selfie with Big E and tweets "you're looking at the future", I'm not convinced he's moved on from racism.

Triple H is a bully, his behaviour doesn't need to have any sort of consistency as long as he and his pals get a few cheap laughs and being in a position of power ensures the people he's mocking can't retaliate in any meaningful way.

I wonder if the sloppy performance of the Lucha Dragons last night has fueled his contempt for Latinos as well.

Kevin Owens is a lot like Triple H so that's one reason.

When did he mock Punks weight? Oh yes on tv as a HEEL.
Same for Masters. It was a tv joke.

Oh ok, I got that one wrong. Still don't think the Punk one was that big of a deal. I seem to remember them both in the ring taking shots at each other. If the Rodriguez one is true, that's uncalled for though.

Ricardo wasn't hired to wrestle. Not only was Owens actually hired to wrestle, but he has slimmed down significantly since getting signed, and I imagine he's hitting the gym hard to keep at that shit. Looking at the guys NXT is pushing, there's a lot more different in body shapes than we usually see. Bull might be seen as a project, but right now he isn't a big deal, and much leaner, less "conventional" guys are.

I heard that all the Zach Rider merch is kept in hypocrates. Same for Rice Flair's failed food line.
