Fox Sports Interview: FOXSports.com: “Italians, dress you better than Enzo


The Swiss athlete jokes on the WWE Italian-American stereotype: “Quiet, you have a better look and I can not wait to go back to May.”

Wrestlemania 33, in partnership with his Sheamus partner, Cesaro had the opportunity to recover Raw Team Tag Team titles in the Ladder Match, then won by Hardy Boyz at WWE’s surprise return. In the coming weeks, the European couple have managed to reap the chance to compete for the Payback belts, the next Pay-Per-View, to be held on April 30 at the SAP Center in San Jose, California.

Regardless of how the match will take place, there will be a new rematch at the next WWE tour in Italy, which will bring RAW superstars to Rome and Bologna (May 3 and May 4 respectively). One of the scheduled matches in the card of these two events will be just a Fatal-4 Way for the pair titles, which will see the two team teams that will challenge Payback, plus the tandem Enzo Amore-Big Cass and Gallows-Anderson .

A spectacular event and where both the pair formed by Enzo Amore and Big Cass, WWE’s “Italian-Americans”, namely that of Cesaro and Sheamus, will always have the special support of the Italian audience. Just to present the upcoming tour in Europe and talk about much more, the Swiss athlete, just hours after the start of the last episode of WWE Raw, appeared at the Sprint Center Arena in Kansas City, Missouri, to respond To journalists’ questions. And among them was the editorial staff of FOXSports.it .

Antonio Cesaro said he was immediately excited about this tour in Europe, particularly the Italian stage where he could enjoy a drink of which he is crazy and that in the United States it is very complicated to find:

The coffee. I love him and there is no one who does it as well as in Italy. It will be a pleasure for me to return, each time it is as if I were in my house. However, I also grew up as an athlete, I will never forget the meetings I made in the smaller federations before winning the “green card” and becoming a professional wrestler in all respects.

Even for his passion for Italy, every time WWE makes a stop in our country, Cesaro is always among the most acclaimed:

In Italy fans are special, very passionate. You see that they are also football fans. Every time we come to Italy we are always warmly welcomed and with great enthusiasm: the energy they are able to convey is truly phenomenal.

Enzo Amore, the Italian stereotype

This time, to make him “competition” in the ranking of fans of Italian fans, there will also be Enzo Amore and Big Cass, the two “gangster” Italian-American so much sympathy arouse in the WWE Universe. The two tamarrians, with their flashy clothes and inguardable hair (especially Enzo), represent what is in theory the American stereotype of Italian in the US . So, let’s try to ask Cesaro, that Italy really knows it, even if he sees us that way. The Swiss athlete, after hearing a laugh, tries to rethink the question:

What do you think about it? Are you really like them?

Of course our answer is no , so Cesaro bursts out again to laugh and argue:

There may be someone who identifies the Italians in that way. But I know you and I think like you. It is not the right stereotype to paint you. You have a great look, you dress well and – continues to smile – drink coffee.

An answer that makes us breathe a sigh of relief and makes us go to the next question. If one day had to fight against The Miz, as usual accompanied by the inevitable wife Maryse, what WWE Women Superstar would choose to support?

We’ll bring Sheamus!

He responds without thinking of Cesaro , which is bursting into a new laughing laugh . When we point out that it has to be limited to the only female landscape, then it adapts bitterly:

No? Are you sure I can not? I think Sheamus would be happy. Well, then at my side I would come to Natalya.

Hardy Boyz and Wrestlemania 33

Now is the time to focus on real matches, such as Wrestlemania 33 , where he and Sheamus had the opportunity to recover their title titles, but then they were overtaken by Hardy Boyz’s return :

We did not expect them to be present, we had to revisit our plans. When I was little I saw their match, they were very fun. And even now they have not lost the enamel: I have to say that it is not so nice to see a plunger on a ladder. With their return, fans have deployed on their side, but I and Sheamus are stronger. Sheamus misses only the title of Intercontinental Champion for winning all four of the main belts. Our goal is to beat them to payback to return to Europe by champions.

Highest point and future plans

Looking at the past, the most beautiful moment of Wrestlemania that remembered Cesaro is that of his first appearance in the 30th edition:

Yes, on that occasion I won the first Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, it was great. Anyway, my victory was an important stage for my career.

He now sees it in pairs with Sheamus, looking for those Tag Team Champions belts that Cesaro has already won twice in his career . In his palmares there is only one title on the individual level, that of Intercontinental Champion:

Now I’m focused on the goals we have at Sheamus at WWE Raw . I think we’re creating funny matches, people appreciate them. And as I said before, we are determined to repay the Payback titles against Hardy Boyz. Then it is clear that in the future I would like to win something else on an individual level. One goal I have before quitting is just to become Universal or WWE Champion.

Going ahead of this step, it is not excluded that it will succeed. Meanwhile, the next goal is called Payback , then the tour will be in Italy. Here is the match card currently being played in the latter, considering that in the Pay-Per-View on Sunday night (2 o’clock on Sky First Fila) some of the titles in the game could change master:

Card of the Italian Tour

Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman

Seth Rollins vs Samoa Joe

Finn Balor vs. Bray Wyatt

Dean Ambrose (C) vs. The Miz w / Maryse

The Hardy Boyz (C) vs Enzo Amore & Big Cass vs Cesaro & Sheamus vs The Club

And many others…
