Cesaro Won't Address WWE Contract Status, Says Wrestling Needs "Mystery"

WWE SmackDown star Cesaro has been subject of recent rumors, in regards to his contract status. While reports emerged earlier in February that Cesaro signed a new deal with the company, he's not affirming anything.

Speaking with Sports Illustrated, the WWE veteran said, "I’m not going to confirm or deny anything. To me, there needs to be a certain amount of mystery in wrestling. A lot of that magic gets lost, so I’ll let people talk. What is important to me is my work in the ring.”

In regards to a potential World title run, Cesaro states, “It’s not up to me to decide what I deserve. In wrestling, that’s up to the fans. I’ll keep working hard to reach my goals. This isn’t just about me. I represent all of Switzerland, all of Germany, all of Italy and all of the international world. Wrestling is a universal language spoken all over the world. I am so proud to be an international representative and do this to the fullest for all the international fans.

“I came from a country that’s not known for wrestling. I’m bringing an international flavor, showing that anything is possible. I am living my dream, and I bring that kind of realism, passion, and love to WWE. I hope to inspire people to go out and follow what they love.”
