Ranking Every WWE King Of The Ring 2019 Entrants' Chances Of Winning

8. Cesaro

It's not a brass ring Cesaro needs right now, it's a King Of The Ring run.

Tournament wrestling suits the no-nonsense aura of his character. Since shedding Sheamus as a tag-team partner and striking out on his own, Cesaro has been explained away as a hard-nosed grappler who's technically excellent between the ropes. He's effectively a modern day Ringmaster.

Such mechanical soundness will be taken as a negative, especially with that comparison. It shouldn't be though, because Cesaro has an outside chance of reaching the latter stages and becoming King Of The Ring. If he does, let's hope he's not given an iffy crown and asked to be Sheamus 2.0.
