I'm not quite sure Claudio's hometown in Switzerland is Schaffhausen, I've read Luzern on some websites. If somebody can help... By the way why not write "Swizterland" after the hometown??? That's the same thing as US States, when a wrestler isn't American he's always billed with his country.
So, Claudio Castagnoli is his real name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djm912 (talk • contribs)
True, but is there any particular reason to think that of this name? Yes, plenty of ring names sound like real names (Christopher Daniels, Jimmy Jacobs, Alex Shelley, Roderick Strong, Shawn Michaels, Nigel McGuinness, and Eric Young all come to mind) but unless there's a reason to definitely think otherwise it's a bit silly to think this or any ostensibly real name isn't one.

This article and OWW both state that his birthday is December 27, 1974, making him 32. However, his profile on Cagematch.net says his birthday is December 27, 1980, making him 26. Castagnoli's My Space says he is 26 years old. Nenog 23:11, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Claudio Castagnoli → Antonio Cesaro – Castagnoli has been performing as "Antonio Cesaro" for over 18 months now. He has appeared on television globally under this ring name, whereas his performances as "Claudio Castagnoli" were overwhelmingly untelevised. McPhail (talk) 19:23, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
Starting July 2013, debuted a swinging rear chinlock. Referee treats it as a possible submission, but seems to be more of a set-up for the Neutralizer. 218.212.229.196 (talk) 16:43, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
There is extensive vandalism in this article that has yet to be addressed. The section headings in every section from Section 1.4.2 onward contains references to female wrestling achievements, and other things that are obviously not applicable to the subject of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.162.201.229 (talk) 02:46, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Just a heads up, his WWE Bio and the Elimination Chamber preview on WWE.com now list him as just "Cesaro", has this been referred to on live TV yet? Duffs101 (talk) 00:07, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
Antonio Cescaro has offically changed his ring name to Cescaro. Just a little note, move the page if you want Moel 5.0 (talk) 04:41, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Finishing moves As (Antonio) Cesaro Neutralizer (NXT / WWE) / Gotch Style Neutralizer (FCW) (Cradle belly-to-back inverted mat slam)[5][171][172] Very European Uppercut (FCW) / Super Uppercut (WWE)[173] (Pop-up European uppercut,[171] sometimes as a counter to a diving opponent)[174] – used as a signature move in WWE Bridging German Suplex "Cesaro used it like 3-4 times, maybe it's not that much but I think it will be his regular finisher. It's just a suggestion." Mattias Lucas (talk) 14:01, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: not moved. (non-admin closure) —innotata 17:31, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
Antonio Cesaro → Cesaro (wrestler) – Arguably his common name now. He spent two years as "Antonio Cesaro" but has received peak exposure by just his last name (i.e., his role with Paul Heyman). It's time to make the move. GeicoHen (talk) 22:01, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
why is his name still antonio cesaro he has been Cesaro for almost a year — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:ACC2:500:2881:9A9F:1334:BEF7 (talk) 04:29, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
Neutralizer (NXT/WWE) / Gotch Style Neutralizer (FCW) (Cradle belly-to-back inverted mat slam, with theatrics) – 2012-2014; used rarely thereafter
Because he has been in a tag team for almost all of 2015, where most of the matches were won by Kidd or by a sequence of other moves. He used the Neutralizer as a finisher against Cena in his one high-profile match of the year showing that it is still considered his finishing move. Though technically that may be "rarely used," it does not take context into account. It also does not offer up another finishing maneuver that he is using in place of the Neutralizer. As it stands, this page lists no current finisher, and honestly I believe it's too little a spans of time to deem it "rarely used." Sherick (talk) 02:55, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
During the 6 July 2015 Raw, the announcers called the move a "springboard uppercut" and I added it, but it got reverted. Possibly because it didn't deserve to be under 'finishers' ? I guess his normal pop-up uppercut was finisher in NXT but demoted to signature in main roster?
"spinning springboard European variation" is the term used by WWE.com for the move though: http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2015-07-06/wwe-raw-results-27609511/page-10
Under "Multiple European uppercut variations" we do have "springboard" but not "spinning springboard" so I would like to add it, using this recent match as a reference.
@Darkwind: Since the article is currently locked to administrators I would like to appeal to admins oversighting the article to add this newest variation. The spin looked super-cool and more powerful than a basic non-spinning springboard. Ranze (talk) 00:17, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
I support this addition, especially considering the WWE website referenced it as well. Sherick (talk) 07:18, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
The article has a heading for Cesaro section but the extensive text under it has no reference to what CS is and how it came about. Needs adding or the heading should be edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.147.19.2 (talk) 17:20, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Antonio Cesaro → Cesaro (wrestler) – Like Big E and Rusev, both recently moved, the fictional first name here hasn't been used in years, was only used briefly, and is too obscure to act as WP:NATDAB. Dropping it is overdue. oknazevad (talk) 01:21, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Support Antonio Cesaro is too obscure to keep at this point --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:07, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
1. I believe that everything in the article is relevant to the topic because it highlights the major phases of Cesaro's career as a wrestler, which he is well known for. I appreciated having around one image for every sub-section to provide more information and insight about his career. 2. I am concerned about the amount of out of date information. Editors may be missing opportunities to update the info every time Cesaro wrestles. However, I think that we can keep the current amount of information since it covers a significant stretch of time in Cesaro's career. Overall, I like the amount of information on this article and the way it is organized. --IMZ Editor (talk) 03:59, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Not moved. A strong consensus would be required for the wrestler to be identified as the primary topic, and there is no evidence for such a consensus here. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:18, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

Cesaro (wrestler) → Claudio Castagnoli – It's his real name, the name he has used everywhere except WWE, and we can't be married to the WWE name forever. Vjmlhds 12:54, 27 June 2022 (UTC)— Relisting. —usernamekiran (talk) 19:00, 7 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisted. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'r there 03:47, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
Support - Claudio Castagnoli had a long and distinguished wrestling career using his real name prior to his tenure with WWE. He is now using his real name again. Fans knew who 'Claudio Castagnoli' was prior to his tenure in WWE, and they still know who he is now. To claim otherwise would be a disingenious argument. I would also argue to not acknowledge the name change would also be to dismiss and disrespect the wishes of Claudio Castagnoli himself.
Furthermore, WWE is not the only professional wrestling promotion, nor is it the only prominent professional wrestling promotion. In fact, much like WWE, AEW also has international TV deals in place and is televised in multiple countries around the world. In addition, AEW also has working relationships with non-American wrestling promotions too. To claim wrestlers are best-known by their trademarked WWE names would be a false argument. You all know who I'm referring to if I say Miro, for example. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.13.213.48 (talk) 12:06, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
What happens if he retires? If he changes his name again? Or even if he dies? Namechange again?
i agree with the name change. just throw in a redirect when people search for cesaro MasterOfPuppets2022 (talk) 13:52, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Support:His real name is Claudio Castagnoli and he wrestled under that ring name for ROH and various other Independent Promotions for a decade before joining WWE Darklord86 (talk) 14:15, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Agree I believe we should change his name as despite his destingushed career in WWE, he had a notable career under his real name in the American and European independents even winning the PWG World Championships. Now that he has moved to AEW and he has opted to use real name (I.E. Bryan Danielson to Daniel Bryan and back to BD.) my soulution is to wait until January 2023 before making any big decisions.
