CESARO aka "The King Of Swing" is a Paul Heyman Guy

Cesaro was the proper choice as the victor in The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. Cesaro is arguably the most consistent in-ring worker this year and he has plenty of momentum now. I am highly intrigued to see what he does in the next few months now that he is aligned with Paul Heyman. He still has the growing support from the fans so the dynamic there will be fun to follow.

If one needs a kayfabe reason to justify this, it would be easy to say that the core of Heyman's character is a shrewd, unconventional but extremely effective manager, promoter and agent of sorts whom in effort to always heighten his great profile sees alot in Cesaro and has offered his services. Face or heel, cultivating champions and promotion is Paul's kayfabe game, hence I could easily see him switch back and forth, and besides that Lesnar is not a full timer obviously, and Cesaro will be Paul's focus for some time. On Cesaro's end, he looks to ascend quickly up the ranks, has seen his success remain stagnant with the insulting Zeb, sees the results being a Paul Heyman Guy can bring, and decided to jump ship in a career decision. Mutually beneficial, easy to explain

Honestly, I don't think Heyman turned face. I think the E is trying something new as an answer to a "problem" they've been having lately. We've talked about recently that there is this new trend starting: Heels who put on such good matches the crowd starts to love them. Well, maybe the best way to solve this "problem", is for those guys, downplay the face heel dynamic for them. Cesaro is aligned with an evil conniving son of a bitch, but we are gonna put him in the face role in a feud with Swagger, and see were we want to take it from there. You aren't turning Cesaro pure face, he still got to be a bit of a smug dick. But you are changing very little about what has been getting him over. He's a guy with incredible power spots, can have a great match with a broom, and can be a great fiery face or a great controlling heel.

The reason for that is popular culture's idea of what makes a hero/villain has changed, while wwe is still stuck in the 80s. The best way to solve it is let wrestlers come up with their own shit, allow the crowd to decide who they like or hate, and take things from there.

Oh god if they do Big E vs Cesaro with Big E being the "good guy" :ti

What's going to happen to Zeb Colter now?

Damn, love how Zeb is selling the angle. It's a shame he and Swagger will never catch a break and go over anyone, but boy do they make an amazing combination. Hoping Heyman/Cesaro will give them a run for their money, though, even if the outcome is obvious.



He's with a REAL AMERICAN, Jack Swagger.

:( Now that's just mean. Just because Cesaro's going over him doesn't mean anything. Swagger is solid upper midcard talent, Cesaro is main event talent. The fact Swagger is getting a legit feud with Cesaro instead of just being squashed is a very good sign.

Zeb will be fine. He made Swagger almost tolerable to watch. Took some time but he eventually did it.. That in itself is a great accomplishment.

Don't get me wrong.. Swagger still sucks but he's at least mildly entertaining now wit Zeb.
I still don't get people's obsession with needing to point out their hatred for him. Trust me, your opinion ain't original.

Guess they could recruit Titus to the Real Americans since he apparently isn't going anywhere soon.
Swagger's done with the tag scene, at least for the majority of this year. He and Zeb are fine on their own. They won't ever get as over as they did with Cesaro, so no point in trying.

I'm hoping he doesn't go the Ryback and Axel route ... I know the WWE is firmly behind him, but they were firmly behind Rybaxel as well. Cesaro is an excellent worker and an excellent talent but despite all of Heyman's successes, there are a string of failures that are too similar to Cesaro that come to mind as well.

This post-mania Raw is just way to similar to last year's post-mania Raw .. just with Cesaro instead of Axel.

I'm looking forward to Cesaro doing well and I really want him to but I'm not too sure just yet.

They have torn up some tag teams and need to replace them. Swagger either needs to be in a tag team or be released imo. I've had some interest in him as a tag team competitor. Zero as a singles wrestler.
 
#193 ·
Yeah and who the hell is he gonna tag with that'll make sense? Think with your head for like five seconds. There's a possibility of another 3 man stable with Ziggler/Miz/Ryder. There are plenty of tag teams, looks like Los Matadores might be turning heel, and the WWE has no reason to put him in another tag team.

Yeah, no, people only cared about Swagger as a tag competitor because they worship Cesaro. No matter what you'd be bitching over Swagger no matter who he gets paired with because you, like 99% of fans, mindlessly despise him for some unknown reason. And whether you personally have an interest in him as a singles wrestler or not doesn't really matter. Even exclusively from a plotline point of view, why the HELL would Swagger and Colter trust anyone else or be in their team?

Seriously, people on this forum will find any reason to bitch. Cesaro is finally get his single's push and Swagger will be buried because of it and ya'll STILL aren't happy.

Cesaro will have a lot more opportunity on the heel side than the face side. He'd have to split time with Bryan, Cena, The Shield, RVD, Sheamus, and Big Show. As a heel he can have some PPV title matches with Bryan as his first topcard run to see how he does.
 
#203 ·
Enraged? lmao, don't be so dramatic. Your idea of Swagger teaming with Sandow or Titus sucks, accept it and move on.

He's probably going to be enhancement talent for house shows and NXT, and then eventually repackaged or released. Heading into a new tag team will be Rybaxel all over again (nobody gets over and nobody cares either way).

Looks like Cesaro is getting the Daniel Bryan push for 2014 with his culmination (not saying World title per se) being in 2015. I support it. Cesaro is a mainstay for WWE for years to come.

And him and Heyman? :jordan2

Cesaro has to be top 3 in ring workers anywhere at any company in the world, the only thing he lacked is that over the top personality that can propel him to the top of this generations best.

As much as I like Zeb with Heyman by his side he now has everything legitimately everything.

Combine Cesaro in ring stuff with Heyman's mouth and you just about start printing money :ex::ex::ex:
