Former WWE Superstar Claudio Castagnoli dethroned Jonathan Gresham at Ring of Honor Death Before Dishonor to win the ROH World Championship. This marked the Swiss Superman's first major world championship of his career, and former WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch took to Twitter to share her feelings on the accomplishment.
Castagnoli went toe-to-toe with Gresham in his ROH return match. Many fans pegged the AEW star to win the gold. When he did, The Swiss Cyborg was instantly congratulated by his Blackpool Combat Club mentor William Regal, who was present on commentary.
In a tweet, Lynch commented on Castagnoli's world title win using applause emojis:

Claudio Castagnoli came close to winning a World Championship in WWE
Under the moniker of Cesaro, Castagnoli was a strong mid-card wrestler who had few opportunities to hit it big. But In 2021, Cesaro was on a hot streak. After having defeated Daniel Bryan and Dolph Ziggler, he was primed to take on Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 37. Cesaro then defeated Rollins in one of the highest-praised matches of night 1.
Following his triumph, Cesaro was launched into a WWE Universal Championship feud against Roman Reigns. The two took each other to the limit at WrestleMania Backlash 2021 in an evenly balanced fight. The Tribal Chief picked up the win after making the challenger pass out to the Guillotine.
Cesaro went on to rekindle his feud with Rollins and was on the losing end of two subsequent matches. After competing in a few mid-card feuds, Cesaro let his contract with WWE expire earlier this year.
Regaining his former wrestling name, Claudio Castagnoli was reintroduced to the wrestling world when he debuted in AEW at Forbidden Door. He defeated Zack Sabre Jr. in a memorable match. Since then, he has remained undefeated in a string of high-profile matches.
