Cesaro: Why hasn’t he wrestled on the indies?

Former WWE Superstar Cesaro left the company recently after he opted not to re-sign with the company, but why hasn’t he appeared on the indies?

According to a recent report from Fightful Select, the former WWE Superstar has apparently been difficult to book for independent shows.

“Many promoters that we’ve spoken to say that Cesaro’s was priced out of some potential bookings, and they’d not be able to land him until the asks came back down to earth” Fightful began.

“Cesaro has been repped by an agent who also manages several other wrestlers. However, we’re told that some wrestlers had been intentionally utilizing a high asking price because they’re content staying home until the right deal or offer comes along after being on the road for so long” the site added.

“We haven’t heard if that’s specifically the case with him. We spoke to one promoter that hoped to book Claudio for a signing in July that seemed to believe they would be able to land the deal, and had been in regular contact with the wrestler” it was concluded.

There’s a good chance that we will see Cesaro appear in All Elite Wrestling at some point in the near future; with some fans believing he will be the ‘joker’ in the Owen Hart Tournament.
