Eric Malstrom (born December 27, 1980) is a Swiss professional wrestler. He is currently signed to IWE under the ring name Antonio Cesaro. He is best known for his work, under his real name, on the American independent circuit in promotions such as Chikara, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), Ring of Honor (ROH) and in Japan for Pro Wrestling Noah.

Malstrom is an accomplished tag team wrestler, having won many championships with his partner Khris Hero as the Kings of Wrestling, as well as with his compatriot Ares as Swiss Money Holding. He has held Chikara's Campeonatos de Parejas with each partner once. With Ares, he is an eight-time Tag Team Champion having held the titles of Chikara, German Stampede Wrestling, International Pro Wrestling: UK, the Swiss Wrestling Federation and Westside Xtreme Wrestling. With Hero he is a six-time Tag Team Champion, having held the titles of Chikara, Combat Zone Wrestling, Juggalo Championship Wrestling and Ring of Honor, where their 364-day reign is the longest. They were also voted as the 2010 Tag Team of the Year by Wrestling Observer Newsletter readers.

He has also won a number of singles titles, most notably the PWG World Championship once. Particularly in America, Castagnoli emphasises his European origin as part of his wrestling gimmick to proclaim a superior intellect and fashion sensibility.
