!!!Antonio Cesaro (Claudio Castagnoli) 2012-
* BaldOfAwesome/[[BaldOfEvil Evil?]]: He's bald. And he seems to be a heel, but nobody's quite sure yet.
* JerkJock: First appeared on WWE TV as a somewhat arrogant (former?) rugby player.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: Possibly



* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: PUT {{DANIEL BRYAN}} IN THE LEBELL LOCK AND MADE HIM TAP.

to:

* BadassDecay: Well, look at BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame. Since being outed as Hunico, he's been pretty much DemotedToExtra, jobbing every so often.
* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: As Sin Cara Negro (well, technically not Negro), he PUT {{DANIEL BRYAN}} IN THE LEBELL LOCK AND MADE HIM TAP.



* WhatCouldHaveBeen / AbortedArc: Variation. Originally, after losing to Sin Cara and outing himself as Hunico, he was placed into a group with the recently promoted (from FCW and Superstars, respectively) tag team Epico and Primo. Rosa Mendes was expected to join soon after in order to make an AlternateCompanyEquivalent to TNA's Mexican America. The problem was that Primo and Epico were from (and billed from) Puerto Rico, which is considered a territory/protectorate of the United States. (Oh, and Rosa is part ''Costa Rican''.) Perhaps seeing the UnfortunateImplications of putting a group of Hispanics together and calling all of them Mexicans, the stable split before it got off the ground. Primo and Epico got Rosa (and subsequently became the Tag Team Champions), while Hunico became a singles competitor and was paired with a ''huge'' bike-riding lackey named Camacho - also known as former FCW talent Donny Marlow, [[FakeNationality who is neither Mexican nor Puerto Rican nor Costa Rican]].

Perhaps with seeing the UnfortunateImplications of putting a group of Hispanics together and calling all of them Mexicans, WWE split the stable split in half before it got off the ground.
