WWE Raw: 10 Things You May Have Missed (Dec 12)
9. Two Of Cesaro's Main Moves Are Tributes To Other Wrestlers
Ask any number of fans who regularly watch WWE programming their thoughts on Cesaro, and it's likely you'll be met with gushing praise. One of the best in-ring performers in the entire company, the 'Swiss Superman' has such poise to his work. When he eventually moves on from teaming with Sheamus, WWE better have something big in mind for such a talent.
Analysing Cesaro's move list is fascinating. The Big Swing, a fairly simple move to perform, has become immensely popular. Adding to that, the guy has also been using the Sharpshooter as a main finishing move this year. Of course, that hold is closely associated with a WWE legend.
On Raw this week, Cesaro also continued using a variation of the 619. This was called the 'Swiss 1 9' by the show's announcers. A clear tribute to Rey Mysterio, the move is impressive for such a large man.
It must be pointed out that two of Cesaro's main moves are lifted from some of WWE's most infamous names of the past, Bret Hart and Mysterio.
