Cesaro is a recent WWE Tag Team Champion who now finds himself without a tag team partner. His teammate Tyson Kidd suffered a serious neck injury and will be out of action for quite a while. Everyone is hoping and praying for a safe return to the ring for Tyson, but what about Cesaro's career in the meantime?

The Swiss Superman has been in creative purgatory for the best part of the past year and it has halted the serious upward momentum up the roster he once had. Without meaningful feuds for the time being, Cesaro's career could come to a pause once again. He wrestled a good match against Kevin Owens on last week's Smackdown but he could easily be relegated to Main Event and Superstars without a clear creative direction before you know it. 

Several options for Cesaro's next step in his career are explored in this article. Feuds and matches that could benefit him are analyzed. There are wrestlers that are perfect for him to feud with and titles he should be vying for.

The following 7 ideas are proposed to help The King of Swing stay relevant and keep wrestling quality matches during this unplanned stint apart from Tyson Kidd...

7. Challenge For The NXT Championship

Cesaro is a darn good professional wrestler, so a return to what's regarded as the best wrestling show around only makes sense. He could be inserted into more of an Alex Riley sort of role where he has a mini-feud with the Champ in-between the big shows but it would make more sense if he's built up as a legitimate challenger who headlines several TakeOver specials.

The prevailing consensus is that Kevin Owens will drop his title to Finn Balor at the upcoming Tokyo event. Balor will need someone lined up who's ready to be in a marquee spot on the card and Cesaro can be that guy. 

His past bouts with Sami Zayn, including their 2 out of 3 falls match, have been some of the best in NXT history. An extended program with Finn is money. With other talented wrestlers like Tyler Breeze and Samoa Joe on the roster, Cesaro has plenty of potential rivals for months to come.
