10 Wrestlers Claudio Castagnoli MUST Face In AEW
4. Kyle O'Reilly
Next up on the list of wrestlers who totally could have had a dream match with Cesaro in WWE but never did comes the incomparable Kyle O'Reilly.
Castagnoli and O'Reilly are very much bred from the same cloth. They both made huge strides on the indie circuit, most notably in ROH, where they won plenty of accolades. By rising through the ranks and becoming legends of that promotion (and plenty more), they proved that they were destined for great things, and AEW could be the place to see their paths cross.
These two technically proficient performers would undoubtedly deliver a wrestling clinic, making purist fans foam at the mouth. Castagnoli and O'Reilly both have a solid understanding of old-school holds tied together with flashier strikes. Watching as they switch between grappling for dominance and beating the snot out of each other would be plenty of fun for casual and hardcore viewers alike.
With the right build, time and effort, this could be a classic ROH-style match-up but on a huge scale!
