When fans lament how poorly underutilized Cesaro it, they might want to point to the six-man tag match during the Hell in a Cell kickoff show. The Swiss Superman became a one-man army, plowing right through Sheamus, Rusev and King Barrett in a matter of minutes, almost single-handedly winning the match for his team. But it wasnt just that he dominated, it was how he did it and how the crowd reacted. Cesaro got the hot tag from Neville and proceed to run the Uppercut Express a series of corner whips and European uppercuts on Barrett. He then did a summersault dive from the apron onto Sheamus on the floor. Not wasting any motion, Cesaro then ran across the floor and uppercut Rusev, then slapped fans hands as he ran around the ring and hit another uppercut on Sheams. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QwpqUcO1rQ All throughout that, the crowd was in a full-throated frenzy cheering on the Swiss Superman, making some wonder why exactly hes still mired in six-man tag matches instead of competing in top-level matches. Oh right, hes too Swiss. Clearly thats whats holding him back.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
