So what ever happened to Claudio CSRO?

[tekkenguy]

What ever happened to the Claudio CSRO name? He never used it and I thought he introduced it because “Castagnoli” would be too hard to pronounce by mainstream audiences.

[Dr. Bolty, Disaster Enby]

Maybe got talked out of it by his boss who loves old school ROH, or likely he just trademarked it in case he needed it somewhere.

[Lizuka #BLM]

Honestly I think he should probably just be using Claudio as a singular name.

[Jacy Jayne Atomic Dog AMV]

God came down from the heavens and said dude ily but that name suuuucks

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

CSRO felt like more a brand name for stuff in the end, that or Tony told him Claudio would be way better, especially for use in ROH.

[Mochi Lone Wolf]

Sounds like what his CYN name would have been.


Don’t overthink things just because American audiences aren’t very bright.

It might catch on. CSRO is really chantable?

[kingoftheindies]

I kind of get the impression he maybe thought he needed the Cesaro portion for branding purposes and decided that may not be necessary.

Though will say Claudio Cesaro is a badass name

[Kalmia]

I imagine he'll keep the Castagnoli name but largely just be known as, and referred to, as Claudio. CSRO is kinda pointless with an AEW crowd - I'd suspect most have at least a knowledge of the Claudio Castagnoli name, even if they didn't watch his indies run.

Dude’s got a pretty boss government name, to be fair.

[Finish Uncle Muffin’s Story]

As somebody suggested above, I think he was going to use it but somebody talked him into keeping his government name. I could also see it being a situation where he trademarked it in the event WWE had the idea to f*** around with him and do it themselves.

They awarded him the trademark, so WWE didn't object to it though:

Good one...The best name still goes to Law and Order creator Dick Wolf though

Clawd E Oh is a pretty good chant.

If Castignoli is hard, Claudio is a pretty fine name to say. When I first saw him in ROH and I definitely didnt want to remember the full name, but I was being lazy American.

[Tea & Crumpets]

Claudio is easy to chant, and I've honestly always felt Claudio Castagnoli is a top 5 real names for wrestlers in history. It's distinctive, alliterative enough to be catchy/snappy, just screams star.
I'd gotten used to Cesaro but I'm already completely back to calling him Claudio. His real name is honestly too good not to use.

[ARI WOW WOW]

Claudio shouldnt remind people of WWE's Cesaro. If pronunciation is a problem, drop the 'G', change it to Claudio Castanoli.

[Zombie Mod]

Claudio CSRO is off hunting that evil git El Generico for the fraud he committed with the fake orphanage & orphans, he's Claudio Castagnoli's twin that he never mentioned.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}what? it's more fun to think of them both doing this.
