Current ROH color commentator Steve Corino recently appeared on the Ross Report to discuss various topics. Here are the highlights.
On Cesaro having “it” and why he thinks Cesaro is underutilized in WWE:
“He’s too talented. He’s too reliable because you’re not going to get problem one out of the guy. None. He’s a total pro. He’s the kind of guy you look at and you want to have in your organization for years to come.”
“He’s the nicest guy ever and that might just be a detriment to him, because he’s a company guy too. No matter how dumb the idea might be, and I don’t know if [WWE] have given him dumb ideas, [but] he’s going to do it and he’s going to do it to the best of his ability and he’s not going to put up a fight.”
On Kevin Owens’ success in WWE:
“He’s like a little brother to me! I’ve known him for 10 years and we had so many great times in Ring of Honor. I still talk to him every week.” Corino continued, “and he’s just a great guy, a great guy, and he makes me so proud just because he goes in there and he has just destroyed stereotypes of what a pro wrestler should be and that’s his niche. Just like when you brought Mick [Foley] into the WWF in ’96, he broke the mold of what normal fans thought a WWE, WWF at the time, wrestler was supposed to be.”
