6. He Used To Wrestle Whilst Dressed As An Ice Cream...
Once again, this is not a joke. Less than a decade ago, Cesaro was wrestling for independent promotion Chikara...Whilst dressed as an ice cream. Billed as A Very Mysterious Ice Cream (if you can believe that), Cesaro became a member of the group Los Ice Creams; surely a contender for one of the most bizarre gimmicks ever concocted in professional wrestlings long and storied history. The threesome, rounded out by founding members El Hijo Del Ice Cream and Ice Cream, Jr, were actually very over in Chikara, despite (or perhaps because of) their collective penchant for wearing ice cream-themed luchadore masks complete with plastic cones on their heads. ...Im not sure if he made that particular costume himself or not, but if he did, there is an amusing mental picture to be enjoyed there. ...Just imagine the hulking, 6,5 strongman sitting down in front of his sewing machine and, like some mentally aberrant cosplayer, carefully making a few adjustments to a Mr. Whippy-themed outfit in preparation for his next big match.
