Does Santino Marella have main event potential?

I don't really put much stock in those Intercontinental title wins. The first was a "fluke" when his gimmick was the Milan Miracle. The second was a comedy run in which he beat Kofi Kingston (he didn't actually even gain the fall).

Think like Vince. He doesn't see the small man offense as being credible, and honestly, it shouldn't be in professional wrestling. Everything we have been taught by the WWE says that you need to be big to succeed, so a guy the size of Little Spike Dudley should get tossed around like Spike. He may grab a tag title reign with somebody, but I don't think he will ever hold even the ECW championship because I don't think by WWE standards he is the guy to anchor that show.
