Just thinking about Cesaro, someone who I love and have often felt should've gone further than he has before realizing he's actually right where he should be.
I think he's an absolutely world class performer but he's never had that intangible, the innate charisma and likeability that would have made him a truly top star.
One of the problems he has is that his best character work is done when he's a sort of smug, cocky, pretentious foreign star who knows exactly how good he is...but his best in-ring work is done when he's a fiery comeback babyface. So he's either a heel with a toned down style that's sort of boring or he's a face with no personality, so he never gets that top-level crowd reaction
I think he's found his niche in WWE as a tag performer, he's absolutely the best babyface hot tag house-on-fire in the business and when he's a heel, the current style of tag team wrestling helps him get away with being a bit more exciting in the ring. It's really the perfect spot for him.
