During a recent appearance on “The Sessions with Renee Paquette” podcast earlier this week, AEW star William Regal revealed that he would sacrifice money from a pro wrestling roster if he were able to sign former WWE Superstar Cesaro. He said,
“I’ve only put my cards for four people where I’ve gone and said, ‘I can’t tell you if they are going to draw you any money, but they are incredible at what they do, they are professional, they will always be there, they will represent the company well.’ Everything that you could want out of a person. Two of them was Bryan (Danielson) and Claudio was the second. That’s how much I think of him. He needs to do whatever he feels is right for his family. If my words mean anything. It’s not about what you think is right or wrong, if nothing else, to have the stabilizing influence of a 100% professional person who everybody can look up to and watch and learn from. Everything you could possibly want as a professional. Dresses like a star, as a human being, speaks five languages perfectly, can represent your company anywhere. That’s before we even get into the ring. If you’re not using him…If you can’t find…if you don’t think he’s…then, maybe, there is something wrong somewhere. If I had any clout anywhere, as far as that much stuff, I would sacrifice some of the money from that roster to get rid of people, this may sound horrible, to get him. That is how much he would bring to any locker room.”
Cesaro (Claudio Castagnoli) recently filed a trademark for ‘CSRO’.
