10 Huge WWE Upset Wins That Led To Nothing
10 upset wins in WWE that led to absolutely nothing
6. Cesaro wins the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal - WrestleMania 30
WWE have tried plenty of different tactics over the years to get as many of their performers on WrestleMania as possible, ranging from multi-man ladder matches to huge tag team bouts to the always-reliable battle royal.
The most famous form of this has to be the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, which made its debut at WrestleMania 30 and was won by Cesaro.
In a move nobody saw coming, the modern-day Claudio Castagnoli picked up the Big Show and slammed him over the top rope to become the first man to etch his name on the trophy.
This felt like the start of something big for the oft-overlooked performer, but, by the mere fact that this entry exists, you can probably figure out that it wasn’t.
Although he won a match at the next pay-per-view, Cesaro lost a United States Championship match the month after. By Battleground in July, he was filler in yet another Battle Royal and, by SummerSlam, he had been relegated to the pre-show.
Hardly Lesnar-like success for the newest Paul Heyman guy.
