We don't need another sympathy case in the main event. I think they learned their lesson when Rey held the belt. I realize he connects with the fans. That is the mark of a great showman. Do you not remember back in the Attitude era when guys like Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, Al Snow, Goldust, Godfather, and, yes Val Venis all connected with the fans? For one reason or another, they didn't get pushed to the main event. You could argue that some of those guys didn't have the right look that a Rock, HHH, or a Stone Cold had, but there was still a spot on the roster for them because of their talent. That is the case with Santino. I'm not sure what you mean about him having success "despite being a comedic character." That is exactly why he is having success now. He was so one-dimensional before. There is no reason to play with the formula as long as it is working.
