5 best moments of Cesaro's WWE career

#4: Cesaro wins the first Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania XXX

Cesaro took part in the inaugural Andre The Giant memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania XXX. The event was announced a month earlier by Hulk Hogan, who famously body slammed Andre in a legendary moment at WrestleMania III.

The Swiss Superman won the contest after eliminating The Big Show using a body slam, mimicking the famous moment between Hogan and André. The New Orleans crowd went wild, proving how popular the winner was.

This, along with his split from partner Jack Swagger and subsequent alignment with Paul Heyman, promised big things for the Cyborg, but they never materialized.

#3: The Swiss Superman holds the United States championship for 8 months

Cesaro's only singles championship in WWE came at the SummerSlam 2012 pre-show when he defeated Santino Marella for the United States title. The King of Swing gained a reputation as a tag team specialist, making this reign somewhat forgotten and underrated.

However, it was a great run involving title defenses against the likes of The Great Khali, Zack Ryder and Hall Of Famer Sgt. Slaughter. The fact that this came during his first year with the company makes it even more impressive, and shows how much singles potential the Swiss Sensation had.
