When watching Cesaro right from the start of his WWE career he has been one of the most consistent and better performers in the company however he doesn't really seem to be getting anywhere other than the midcard and tag team kind of level.
Although I think the current team with him and Sheamus is great and would like it to be a while yet before Vince decides to pull the plug on the team I have often wondered if Cesaro will ever go on to the next level and win the World Championship?
He is capable of going toe to toe with anyone, He V's Brock or He V's Strowman would be awesome if ever allowed to happen.
Anyway what is your opinion on the matter? Is it going to just be a upper midcard and occasional Tag title run career for Cesaro? Or will there eventually be a time when he is allowed to get into the main event situation and finally win the big prize?

At this point, I would be happy with a strong IC title run. But then again, Jinder Mahal is WWE Champion. Either way, don't think so.

Probably not.
A thread needs to be made about this but there is little to zero upward mobility in WWE. Once a performer settles into a spot on the card, they tend to stay there. Their top stars, by contrast, tend to be pushed hard right out of the gate.

The moment Jinder became WWE Champion it broke the ceiling anyone with anything in remote of talent or look can be WWE Champion. There's no more excuses anymore. If Jinder can be booked as champion anyone else can. Sadly he will probably never be world champion in the WWE

No, Vince Mcmahon is well aware of how desperate most fans are wanting Cesaro to be WWE Champion and decided never to make him champion to spite the same fans.

If you would have told me just three years ago that Seth Rollins would beat Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura would have pinfall victories over John Cena, and Jinder Mahal would be back in WWE, let along a WWE Champion, I'd have laughed it off as fantasy booking. I've always said anything is possible, but I think now more than ever, we can really say ANYTHING is possible.

As much as I would like him to be champion at some point I just don't see it happening. Any time it seems like he's on the verge of a push he just gets shuffled back down the card a couple notches. I've been a fan of his going back to his time on the indies and one thing that has proven consistent with him is that he's a great tag team wrestler. He's been paired with several people and it always seems to work out well. As great as he is in a singles capacity he's that much better as part of a team with somebody to play off of.

You can never say never, Jinder and all.
But the dude is absolutely dire when he's by himself. He's so bad when he doesn't have someone to play off of. There's nothing wrong with being a bad ass tag team specialist, and I think he's exactly where he belongs.

at this moment in time it depends how much Vince wants to tap into the Swiss market

Cesaro has been my favourite since Bryan retired, but I've come to realise in the last year that whilst some guys are talented enough to be world champ, some are best utilised in a tag team.

No, but it doesn't really matter. Titles aren't what they used to be. They used to be given storyline importance, now they are just things to carry around.

I really don't think Jinder is as good a bench mark for anyone can be WWE champion as people think. Jinder is WWE champion because of the billion strong audience he happens to share ethnicity with that WWE wants to tap into for revenue. Not many jobbers have that, it's not like there's going to be some kind of huge Curt Hawkins title push on a whim one week. It was a certain set of circumstances that lead to Jinder as champion. Rather than Vince just taking a huge liking to some lower card guy.
In answer to the thread, no, it's a little too late for Cesaro I think short of leaving and coming back. He's not a maint event level promo and never has been, fantastic wrestler, don't get me wrong, but it's not really enough right now to equate to a world title. Yes there's guys like Brock who can't speak very well either, but the difference between he and Cesaro is while they're both athletic freaks, Lesnar has always had a level of protection and the machine behind him which Cesaro hasn't. If he had, with a mouth piece he absolutely could've been a main event player. But the damage has been done at this point.

at this moment in time it depends how much Vince wants to tap into the Swiss market Someone go to Wikipedia and change Switzerland's population from 8 million to 8 BILLION and Cesaro will beat Brock for the title on Monday night.

It's criminal but it doesn't look likely. Dude is a beast and best guy they have right now in my opinion. Man when he came out with hey man that time I nearly did too.

Years from now, if he sticks around long enough after Vince is gone and Trips and Steph are in dire straights to the point they're willing to put the belt on ANYONE (see Jinder), he might get a thank you run. But I doubt it.

No, but he should have done two years ago. Had Heyman actually been his hype man instead of using Cesaro as a means to keep hyping Brock, he could have become world champion after winning the Andre Battle Royal. He could have done it again after the Cesaro Section thing too. I honestly think if he was just given a good mouthpiece, or was able to relax as much on mic as when hes doing UUDD, he'd cruise it to the top of the card and was my pick to dethrone Brock ages back. If I ran the WWE I'd push Cesaro so hard Braun, Brock & Roman would look like jobbers in comparison, but I'm resigned to the fact that, like my former favourite William Regal, my fav guy is again never getting the title.

Yes, Cesaro will hold the title. His organic fan connect will explode once he turns face and breaks solo again.

doesn't seem like they're going to pull the trigger on it. the best time IMO for that push to start was during the US open challenge matches with cena. that was the time for him to get the win over cena to make the jump to the bonafide main eventer level and get the world title from there. instead he had a bunch of great matches that he ended up always losing, got pulled into the sheamus feud and then the tag team. so barring lots of injuries I don't see it happening- unless he gets a thank you run at the end of his career or something
