Is Cesaro Being Punished For His Cena/Orton Comments?

As noted earlier this week, there was some speculation that Cesaro was being punished via the way he is booked due to comments he made about John Cena and Randy Orton in a recent interview.

For those who missed it, below are the comments Cesaro made:

“Exactly. It is a new era of guys, it’s a new generation, and it’s a lot of fun to watch that because there are fresh match-ups. I mean I’m sick of seeing John Cena against Randy Orton for the 500th time. It’s great that we have some new, young guys that can come out and provide absolutely great match-ups and for the fans there are fresh, exciting matches and things to watch.”

According to one WWE source, Cesaro is not being punished for those comments. In fact, the claim is that Cesaro didn’t get any heat for making those remarks and the feeling backstage in WWE is that the comments were taken out of context.
