According to 2-time Hall of Famer Booker T, former WWE Superstar Cesaro would've been in the company if the "situation was right for him."
Cesaro left WWE in February this year after his contract expired. He is currently signed with AEW, where he goes by his real name Claudio Castagnoli. The one-time United States Champion was with the company for 11 years.
In a recent episode of his Hall of Fame show, Booker T praised Cesaro and said that he would love to see the ROH World Champion back in the company. The Hall of Famer feels that Cesaro would've still been in the company under the right circumstances.

"I was talking about Cesaro - I felt like Cesaro, I think he would've stayed in WWE if the situation was right for him. The situation wasn't right and he moved on, and hopefully he's happy. And I'm sure if Tony Khan is smart, he would've locked him up for a minute. I said it before, if I could've had that guy on my team, I'm going to have him on my team. I would love to see a guy like him come back," said Booker T. [From 58:55 to 59:25]
