#5 Details on SmackDown's Cesaro having a backstage fight with Sin Cara
Cesaro is known to be an amicable person who has led a mostly non-controversial career in WWE. However, there had been rumors regarding The Swiss Cyborg's backstage fight with former WWE Superstar Sin Cara in 2015, ahead of their match at Elimination Chamber.
Sin Cara, now known as Cinta De Oro, mentioned the incident with Cesaro while speaking to Inside The Ropes. The former NXT Tag Team Champion said the two men had entered into a heated verbal argument ahead of their match, but the matter was eventually resolved.
"The other day, I posted a picture of me and Cesaro because he won his WrestleMania match," De Oro said. "And then Tyson [Kidd] commented on that. He said like, 'Oh, I remember what happened before the match' – because me and Cesaro got in a little argument before the match. So everybody thought we were going to get in this crazy fight or whatever, and then we ended up having an amazing match. It was a great experience for me to be in the first."
Cesaro has been the recipient of a major push on SmackDown lately. WWE has major things in store for The Swiss Superman, as suggested in the next slide.
