Cesaro to appear at NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff
WWE is teasing that Cesaro will be playing a part in NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff this Saturday.
In a video that WWE posted today, Cesaro said he’ll be paying a visit to Cardiff, Wales for Saturday’s event. “I’ve heard a lot of things about NXT UK, so I’m going to go to NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff to find out firsthand what it’s all about,” Cesaro said.
Cesaro ended the interview by saying he may take more of a “hands-on” approach at TakeOver.
Further details on Cesaro’s role at TakeOver have yet to be revealed.
A member of the main roster was in action at UK TakeOver: Blackpool back in January. After an angle where Jordan Devlin injured Travis Banks before their match, Finn Balor took Banks’ place and defeated Devlin.
