Face Cesaro.
We've seen small glimpses of it so I have to ask, how would you do it?
What type of wrestler would he be?
Where on the card would he be?
What feuds would you put him in?
Personally I'd just have him keep getting better and better pops until he gets fed up with Swagger and Zeb. Maybe he gets a shot at a major title and he gets backstabbed because he's not a real American and then he turns based off of that. Afterwards I'd put him in the Face Orton role meaning a powerful badass face. One that's not all about jokes (Cena/Sheamus) but is just an asskicker with great moves. I'd also let him show off a new move every ppv.
It would be great.

Anything dispute leading to a Cesaro Swing on Zeb would suffice. He doesn't have a very established heel character, so it won't be hard to turn him.
After that is trickier. He could be kind of like RVD where the appeal isn't "I hate you" feuds, but purely entertaining spectacle in the ring. A steady push to the World Heavyweight Championship would be great, he can defend the belt regularly and have outstanding matches all over the card. They should push him as this unsolveable puzzle because of his combination of skills, strength, and athletcism. A feud with a huge guy like Big Show would be great to build to, because of his insane strength. Can he hit the Neutralizer on Show?! would be a fun lead-in PPV angle.

Burning the American Flag in front of Colter and Swagger.... Wait, that wouldn't work.

More Giant Swings, maybe add a UFO and people will cheer him to the roof.

Cesaro: "You don't know what it means to be a real American Colter! You really don't! But I've met a man who taught me what it really means to be American. This man is my new manager!"
Swagger: "NO ONE IS MORE AMERICAN THAN THE REAL AMERICA--"
I am a real American, Fight for the rights of every man,
I am a real American, fight for what's right, fight for your life!

I could go for a comedy tag team with Santino. Have Santino keep trying to persuade Cesaro into joining him while Zeb and Swagger keep beating up Santino and telling him he's not a real American. I like Cesaro and his moves, but he needs guys like Santino and Zeb to do some of the talking in the feud and each week making it seem like Cesaro is more and more conflicted. Then one week he does a run in and saves Santino from Swagger and gives Swagger the Giant Swing into a Cobra.
From there, have him show more personality. Not yodeling, not being evil foregin heel #2123, have him in comedy segments so the crowd can warm up to the guy and his ring work will of course speak for itself. Being a flashy wrestler is great, but that didn't help Daniel Bryan when nobody really gave shit for the guy. It wasn't until he found his niche as the crazy hobo bearded Yes Yes stuff that he found his stride. Let the same happen for Cesaro, don't force it.

With Mr America on his left and The Patriot on his right he rises to the top as the One True American.
Also he would have to drive a Red/White/Blue painted Segway trailing an oversized Perkin's Style American Flag.

Real Americans lose some matches and Colter and Swaggie berate Antonio until he finally snaps and lays them both out.

I'd book it with Swagger eventually growing jealous of Cesaro "showing off". He starts tagging himself in to interrupt spots, etc. and tries to steal the spotlight with similar feats of strength, but as he can't match Cesaro's power, he screws things up and the team starts accruing more losses. Cesaro is annoyed, but Zeb seems to favor Swagger despite the problems he's causing. Eventually Cesaro presses the matter in an interview, but Zeb quickly apologizes and seems to smooth things over, saying they need to focus on their match against (insert face team) later in the evening.
In a backstage segment just before the match, Swagger is talking to Zeb alone, asking why he apologized to Cesaro. Zeb says he only did it to placate Cesaro and not to take his remarks seriously, since "for obvious reasons, you're more of a real American than he is." As the two walk off, the camera pans out to show Cesaro has been eavesdropping on the conversation.
Post-commercial, the match begins. Cesaro feigns cooperation to the point of telling Zeb to distract the ref, so he and Swagger can double-team one of their opponents. They set up the vaulted-double-stomp spot, but instead of leaping over, Cesaro whirls Swagger around, makes him eat an uppercut, plants him with the Neutralizer and rolls the fallen opponent on top of him. Swagger takes the pinfall loss, Cesaro walks off laughing and Zeb goes ballistic.

He comes out smiling and slapping hands with the fans for no discernible reason. He will also spend most of the match getting beat down until he turns the tides.

And in any case, Santino's more or less just a tool for helping get Cesaro a chance to show off his personality and quriks to the crowd and help them really get into Cesaro outside the ring as well as inside. |

I am a real American, fight for what's right, fight for your life!Call me crazy, but I like this. Providing Hogan lets Cesaro have the spotlight (I'm being optimistic), then I'm all for this. Cesaro could even have his 'Hogan/Andre' moment using the Big Show match suggested further up. Also... www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EgbejhblVk |

Zeb gets more and more xenophobic until Cessaro snaps and gives him a giant swing (if he can take that bump), swagger tries to run in and attack but gets put in an even longer giant swing.

Cesaro's visa expires and Zeb/Swagger turn on him for being an illegal immigrant.
He gets an extension to battle them and courts a new Diva, maybe one of the NXT call-ups to be his Green Card wife.

I'd have him beat Big Show or Mark Henry in a body slam competition while on an aircraft carrier, and then embark on the Cesaro Express.
Also, a UFO, big swing, and or Swiss Death on Triple H would get it done. I actually had an idea the other day where he some how manages to pee in the Shield's cheerios and manages to fight them off for a while with his flashy feats of strength before they take him down and D-Bry makes the save.
Then Cesaro states that while he is the "Swiss Superman" and looks like the ideal WWE Superstar, he's also one of the best there is in the ring. Then he starts beating people with his flashy feats of strength and the chain wrestling/holds/style that a lot of us know he's capable of.

Anyone doing anything with Santino is the kiss of death for unlimited continuous mediocrity. Other than his one comedy spot that they're currently pushing, "unlimited continuous mediocrity" is a pretty good description of Cesaro. |
