Not content with being a master between the ropes, Cesaro is also a demon with a sewing machine. No, Im not joking. Our man Cesaro actually used to make all his own gear (were talking trunks and everything). How many other wrestlers actually made their own tights, trunks and other in-ring apparel, completely from scratch? He doesnt make his own gear now, of course, but thats only because the WWE has people to do it for him (and besides, hes much too busy being awesome). However, in a recent interview with Pete Rosenberg, Cesaro did say that he still gets t-shirt ideas from time to time and that he regularly passes those ideas on to the WWEs merchandise team.
I am a professional author and lifelong comic books/pro wrestling fan. I also work as a journalist as well as writing comic books (I also draw), screenplays, stage plays, songs and prose fiction.
I don't generally read or reply to comments here on What Culture (too many trolls!), but if you follow my Twitter (@heyquicksilver), I'll talk to you all day long!
If you are interested in reading more of my stuff, you can find it on http://quicksilverstories.weebly.com/ (my personal site, which has other wrestling/comics/pop culture stuff on it).
I also write for FLiCK http://www.flickonline.co.uk/flicktion, which is the best place to read my fiction work.
Oh yeah - I'm about to become a Dad for the first time, so if my stuff seems more sentimental than usual - blame it on that!
Finally, I sincerely appreciate every single read I get. So if you're reading this, thank you, you've made me feel like Shakespeare for a day! (see what I mean?)
Latcho Drom,
