Cesaro takes down Seth Rollins in his first singles match at Wrestlemania. The Swiss Cyborg and the Friday Night Savior put on a great encounter.
Cesaro has been very underrated when it comes to singles competition. For almost 5 years he has been exclusively wrestling in the tag division despite being a phenomenal athlete extremely capable of carrying a match on his shoulders. The last few months however, have done a bit to correct the wrong.

Cesaro takes down Seth Rollins in his first singles match at Wrestlemania
Rollins and Cesaro are considered among the best wrestlers in the world due to the variety of moves they can employ inside the ring. Tonight, they proved that they are just as amazing with their story telling. There were very few flamboyant moves. Instead, they focussed on their in-ring psychology and selling.
The entire match was built around Cesaro trying to swing Rollins. Cearo started the match by attempting to grab his opponent for the swing. The Messiah managed to avoid it. He later struck with a gutwrench superplex and a bucklebomb for a two-count. Rollins followed it up with a falcon arrow for another near fall.

Rollins worked on Cesaro and it came in handy later. Cesaro launched two failed attempts at grabbing Rollins before finally swinging him. However, his arms tired out after nine revolutions. Rollins landed a corkscrew splash for another two count.
