One of WWE’s best in-ring wrestlers over the last decade is no longer with the company after failing to come to terms on a new contract.
PWinsider reported on Thursday that Cesaro has “quietly exited WWE'' following the expiration of his contract. The report states that the 41-year-old Cesaro (real name Claudio Castagnoli) and WWE had been in negotiations for a new deal, with Cesaro turning down a contract extension that was offered.
Cesaro’s last match for WWE prior to his contract expiring took place on the Feb. 11 episode of SmackDown. He lost to Baron Corbin on the show.
