Cesaro Among Most Underutilized Performers in WWE

Cesaro is in the midst of a best-of-seven series against Sheamus, and his defeat on Raw put him in an 0-2 hole, as the Superstars battle it out for a title shot.

The former United States and Tag Team champion previously tore his rotator cuff and was out of action for over four months before returning on Raw the night after WrestleMania 32.

An argument can be made that Cesaro is among the most underutilized talents on the WWE roster, but there is hope that his series with Sheamus could lead to something bigger, be it a title shot or a potential trade angle to SmackDown after blue brand general manager Daniel Bryan teased interest.
