10 WWE Wrestlers Who Must Also Join AEW

4. Cesaro

"Cesaro To AEW" would be greeted with global Wrestling Twitter/Reddit street parties so vast that they'd probably trigger some sort of statement from the World Health Organisation. There can't be many more performers over the last decade that have been afforded the "why won't WWE push (insert wrestler)?!" than the 'Swiss Superman', but it's been that long now that it's becoming futile to analyse.

He's had a strong enough go of things as a genius tag team wrestler. Pairings with Tyson Kidd, Sheamus and Shinsuke Nakamura have brought the best out all of those partners and brought into sharp focus just how good he is bell-to-bell, but there's never been one run that's confirmed or flattened the endless debate about his promo skills. Vince McMahon's dismissive attitude on the Stone Cold Steve Austin podcast sucked, but it's possible Cesaro's main event promos would suck just as much. It can, tragically, be both.

But we've never been allowed to find out, and therein lies the intrigue.

Is he too good for what he gets? Is he more than WWE will ever give him? Is he - loathe as your writer is to lean on Cody's slightly cheesy phrasing - undeniable?

Who wouldn't want to find out?
