Thee Cobra is the perfect way to make him into a new character. Have a heel beat him up really bad and tell him he's a joke. Next have a couple of weeks of Santino off TV and the Heel suddenly gets attacked by a random person backstage. That random person turns out to be Santino, but in a completely different persona. You can have Santino rename himself as "Cold Blood" and have him viciously attack and beat up stars backstage, capitalizing on his wrestling/fighting skills.

god bless you Pintint

and some will tell you it's a hygiene thing, some say armpit hair can "get in the way" of certain things, from shitarse shows in front of 30 people to Kurt Angle, just about everybody in wrestling does it although most probably couldn't tell you definitively why. And it's not that complicated

I liked Santino as a serious wrestler, his mma influence was refreshing. It took me awhile to warm up to him after his debut and of course once I did warm up to him, that is when WWE decided to alter his gimmick.

He was funny for awhile but that got stale and old, he bame the divas guy which was fitting because he was not that entertaining at the time.

Santino and Vlad were an enjoyable tag team. They seemed to help each other out or advance each other in ways that neither could achieve via singles matches at that time.

I'm open to him doing good stuff in the future but right now I don't expect much from him. Hopefully creative will reconsider their point of view on him.

P.S. Santino should be a new Savio Vega.

Yes, because the original Savio was so successful, right?

Santino's still good comic relief, plus we all know he can go in the ring. Everybody in here bitching about him needs to lighten up a bit. Plus, ya gotta love how a move as weak-looking as the Cobra has won so many matches for him.

Randy Orton has said before that Santino is the funniest guy he has ever travelled with. So at least we can be safe with the knowledge that Santino will always have a job.

Santino Marella has a safe job on the roster that could make him important to the company via merchandise sales, and people want to risk that? Now, I have all been for moving Marella up the card in the past, and I am still not against it -- but why can't it be with his current shtick?

I really want to see a feud between Marella and a super-serious heel with some mid-card weight. How about Jack Swagger or Drew McIntyre? Let's go Drew McIntyre, and rekindle the McIntyre/Kelly Kelly angle, with Marella also going after Kelly. McIntyre informs Marella that he plans to destroy him, and you get clips of Marella (hilariously) preparing for this match. McIntyre can win a surprisingly competitive match (and that's all you need to build Marella -- give him a little more each time), and then after the match, Kelly Kelly protects Marella from a McIntyre beat-down. Drew is all "What are you doing, Kelly?" and Marella pulls himself up behind McIntyre and takes him out with The Cobra, before making out with Kelly. McIntyre gets the win, but Santino gets the girl.
