Cesaro challenged Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship in the main event of WrestleMania Backlash. It was the biggest match in Cesaro’s career in WWE and he was determined to make the most of his opportunity.
Cesaro tried his hardest to beat The Tribal Chief but ultimately, it was to no avail as Reigns won the match after locking in the Guillotine submission on Cesaro, making The Swiss Superman pass out as a result.
Things wouldn’t get any better for Cesaro after the match as he was viciously attacked by Seth Rollins, who decimated him with a chair and Curb Stomp. Cesaro’s performance was praised by fans and Superstars alike, even in defeat.
Now it seems Cesaro has finally commented on his devastating loss at WrestleMania Backlash. Cesaro took to Twitter and had a short and conscience tweet to fully capture what he felt, as Cesaro simply stated that he was so close to winning the WWE Universal Championship.
So close
Roman Reigns would reply to Cesaro’s words and he made sure to rub salt on his wounds in the process. It is likely the feud between Cesaro and Seth Rollins will continue, but after that, it is likely Cesaro might get another chance at Roman Reigns’ WWE Universal Championship.
