WWE is getting Very European
 

From PWInsider:

Claudio Castagnoli has officially signed a WWE developmental deal and has reported to Florida Championship Wrestling. His new ring name is Antonio Cesaro.


------------------


That's one. Cmon Hero.

Though he has signed a deal before and they rescinded it.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

I kind of want to change my name to Antonio Cesaro

Evan Bourne was going to be Evan Stone.

get used to the shitty names.. they are here to stay apparently

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.

yes sirrr

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.

This is the first thing I thought of when I read this title

Hero will be called Chet Villain

haha look like hamburger chef

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.

Claudio is awesome. I'm excited.

The WWE Ringsteps don't stand a chance!

I really hope Alex Koslov gets called up soon

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.

As long if they bring in Chris Hero I'll be happy.

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.

Romeo and Antonio

It stands for "Certainly Cesaro."

Well played, in that regard, then.

And a subtle nod to his roots.

Oh, I was making that shit up.

Heel European Stable with this guy, Barrett, McIntyre and Sheamus.

Managed by Regal.

book it

I hope nobody books that ever.

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.

I hope they bring in Tursas to show Clay how to properly do a Crossbody. :shifty:

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.

Wow, that was horrible.
