Lifting up Brodus for his finishing move aside, I think it's safe to say Cesaro's run with WWE so far has been pretty damn awful. They paired him up/split him from Aksana for no reason and with no pay-off or build up at all.
Add to the fact he gets no crowd reaction, his "5 languages" gimmick got boring after the first time and.. well, yeah. Cesaro sucks.

Disagree. Cesaro doesn't suck.
He's actually good at the "evil foreigner gimmick". Plus he's a seasoned indy star who actually has "the WWE look". Cesaro has the potential to be a top star.

Pretty much this. Don't confuse "bad booking" for "bad talent". Cesaro's awesome, his lack of promo time or a story other than "I dislike you, FIGHT!" is what sucks. |

I couldn't possibly disagree with you more. He's great in the ring, and he's one of my fave five right now.
I don't like it or get why they split him from Aksana, as I thought they had very good chemistry together. But he's fine without her.

Sorry, I should have re-phrased my initial post.
I don't think he sucks in the ring. But I think he's got zero heat and pretty much zero personality in his current role. Creative's fault, almost certainly, but Cesaro right now is a dud.

He doesn't suck. His run HAS sucked though, but I'd blame the silly rugby gimmick that he's hopefully moving away from and being paired with Aksana. She's annoying in a 'change the channel' kind of way.

He only really sucks the life out the live audience.

He's actually one of my favourites on the roster.
How do you say "completely disagree" and "are you serious" in 5 other languages.
I've also enjoyed his run so far. He's a foreign heel, he's good on the mic and they broke him away from Aksana because Aksana's s*** and they see something in the guy. And he's been booked pretty well I felt. With beating Brodus like that, they really seem to be getting behind him. Don't everyone start being like TNA with the start/stop pushes here.
I'll be honest, when I saw the title, I was baffled. It might as well be "can we all agree Daniel Bryan sucks". Or even "can we all agree Rosa Mendes is a technical master".

I don't agree about the sucking thing. I think he is decent.

I'm kinda digging him thus far, they ironed out some of the kinks from his initial debut, and will probably continue to do so. He works for me in an almost 3D reinterpretation of the evil foreigner shtick, but with a load of charisma to back it up. Perfectly cartoonish, basically.

Cesaro bores me, to be honest. His gimmick is goofy and his finisher is generic at best. I get that the guy is a talented wrestler, but right now there's nothing he's doing that's really holding me.
Although, splitting from Aksana was fine by me. She's not that hot anyways.

Yeah, winning a title months after debuting is totally awful.

Yeah cause Daniel Bryan losing every week on NXT was a great way to start out.

Not everyone catches on fire with the crowd right out of the gate. If anything, the majority of wrestlers are like that.
If he's still not over at all in... say... 6 months, then it may be a problem.

Not to mention, he's a midcard heel slowly moves his way up the card, why can't people wait. Plus, the crowd reacted pretty well when they saw him hit with the Neutralizer. Plus, he's really strong and I think it looks more impressive when a guy struggles to get someone up and you can see his legs shaking. Jim Ross and Michael Cole did such a great job on calling that too.
Antonio Cesaro maybe my current favourite right now as well. He hasn't worked many matches like he would on the indies, but his matches are still enjoyable I find.
