Seth laid down the stipulation that his opponent must be under 6 feet tall and weigh under 200 pounds. Well if you notice, unlike every other superstar, the ring announcer never announces a weight for Neville. I used to think it was just that they left it out, BUT after last night where his weight obviously should have been announced to show that he's capable of answering the challenge, it's actually clear to me now.
Neville weighs 0 pounds. That's why his weight is never announced, because he doesn't have any. "The Man That Gravity Forgot" is just a name he uses to sound cool, when in actuality gravity doesn't affect him since he doesn't weigh anything.

He's the Man That Gravity Forgot, therefore he's weightless.
Though if this is really the case, shouldn't he just float upwards?

If there's ever some sort of lightweight title again heel Neville can use this to qualify and beat up people he realistically outweighs by 50 lbs.

Weight = Mass Times Gravity... although for someone unaffected by gravity he's reliable for laying down for 3.

NXT always billed him as being 190 lbs., anyway.
At least, that was the stat in his entrance video there.

This really made Seth look dumb. He issues his own open challenge with strict conditions, yet decided not to follow them for some unexplained reason.

Seth could have made things a lot easier for himself if he specified mass instead.

The fact that he doesn't have a billed weight is my favourite tiny detail since they started announcing Mexican wrestlers en espanol

Wasn't it kind of size-ists to just ignore Kalisto like that? Just the whole "Oh, we only have one guy under 6 foot 200lbs" part.

I remember they used to announce the weight of Drew McIntyre in stones.
Personally, due to how muscled he is, I think that Neville weighs more than 200 pounds.

Actually this was done so that Art Donovan's ghost could show up and ask "How much does this guy weigh?" during the next Neville match.

There was an excellent piece of feedback on a Review-a-RAW wherein a contributor noted that Neville's moniker should be less "the man who gravity forgot" and more "the man whose offense relies rather heavily on gravity".

Doesn't mostly everyone's offense rely heavily on gravity? I mean, it would suck for John Cena if he lifted someone up for an AA and they just got stuck in the air. |

Plus it'd be easy to get out of a sharpshooter if you were both in the air. |

Neville was chosen because someone needed to job.

Do we know for sure he's overweight for it? Given he seems to be billed at around 190-195, so just under.
