Though he has signed a deal before and they rescinded it.

<font color=goldenrod>I would be so pissed if they signed Claudio but not Hero. Not that both guys aren't good enough or anything on their own...but damn I love their tag team.</font>

I really hate the names these guys get when they sign. All of them sound like pornstars.

Antonio Cesaro sounds like a performer for 8th Street Latinas.

is it true that Joe Hennig asked if he could use his real name and was informed by John Laurinitis words to the effect of "when you start wrestling like a hennig you can use the name hennig"??

Yeah I hate generic pornstar sounding names. Especially Shawn Michaels.

This is very awesome. Claudio will be an excellent addition to the roster. Now they better sign Hero, as splitting them up would be a sin.

So the name isn't too bad, quite equal. This is good, but we need a Hero.

I agree with you on this. Kings of Wrestling would be a great addition to the tag team ranks. Both are great as singles competitors but this is where they have been shining. Also, I am probably the only one, but I'd like to see Sara Del Rey come along with them and add something to the women's division. However, they'd change her name to something dumb I am sure.

That name is fine. It's not like Claudio Castagnoli has some beautiful ring to it.

I kinda like the name Antonio Cesaro, actually. Could see him as a World Champion, truthfully. I'd love for Chris Hero to sign. He'll probably get a name like Nick Victory. Would actually love that. I'm drunk and tired.

lol that his name on the site is "Antonio Cesaro," yet his trunks have a very clear CC on them. You would have thought they'd get him some attire to at least match the name before the photo session.

It stands for "Certainly Cesaro."

And a subtle nod to his roots.

I'd much rather see Antonio Cesaro shown in backstage segments chilling with JBL as they make people do humiliating things for money.

If they don't bring in Hero, I hope they bring him in as Alberto Del Rio's Swiss banker.

He should come in as McIntyre's gimp in a new gimmick where McIntyre becomes a dominatrix. McIntyre reveals that he is actually into the S&M scene and introduces his gimp, Cesaro. They can tag together and eventually Cesaro can turn on McIntyre and they have a blow off, "Whip on a pole" match.
Now that would be something I'd watch.

How would you even beat a gimp? They'd get off on every bit of offense you tried.

Claudio Castagnoli has been working in the business for the long time. And I'm merely talking the aesthetics of the name.
