Cesaro is still reaching for that elusive brass ring

If you didn't follow Cesaro prior to his WWE tenure, I would strongly suggest you take a moment and search a few YouTube videos under his birth name, which also just happens to be the name that put him on the wrestling map – Claudio Castagnoli. When you hear the phrase “indie darling”, Cesaro is a prime example of that very phrase.
It was his generation of independent wrestlers that truly made the bigger companies take notice and finally come to the conclusion that not only is it okay to sign a star from a lesser known promotion, it was often a great business decision to do so.
Since arriving in the WWE, Cesaro has done everything asked of him and more, to make the powers-that-be pleased. Unfortunately, it seems as if the decision makers don't fully believe in the Swiss Superman. Nevertheless, you can be rest assured that there are other places, such as Impact Wrestling and probably New Japan Pro Wrestling, that would be glad to have him.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
