The Swiss Superman isn’t ready to return to the ring just yet.
Cesaro quietly left the WWE earlier this year following his contract expiring. Since leaving, there have been several reports of promoters attempting to book Cesaro, with many not hearing back from the former United States Champion.
In the latest issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer discussed the options for Cesaro. At the moment, he has a young child and is focusing on his family.
“Cesaro has been laying low for some time. He’s a free agent and is taking time off for family reasons with a young child. He did trademark a new name in case he goes elsewhere. It’s not known if AEW made an offer for him but Tony Khan has spoke highly of him. But with the size of some of the new contracts WWE has given, there is the feeling a guy like Cesaro, in his early 40s, will return because he’s comfortable with WWE even though he recognizes he’ll never be used on top, but there’s nothing definite in that direction. The only thing we know is he’s been in talks with Conrad Thompson about doing Starrcast and according to those close to him, has at least considered other projects that he wouldn’t be allowed to do if he returned to WWE.”

Time will tell if Cesaro will return to the ring at all, but it seems Meltzer thinks WWE may be off the table for the star now that his contract expired. Where do you think Cesaro will land? Let us know in the comment section and on our social media pages.
