Mama Mia! I'm-a being arrested! (Santino Arrested)
From PWInsider:
World Wrestling Entertainment's Santino Marella was arrested at 2:57 AM this morning on charges of Driving Under the Influence after being stopped at 6301 Westshore Boulevard in Tampa, Florida. Marella is currently being held on $500 bond. I'm sure we'll have more on this later today. |

He can kiss any push goodbye. Maybe even his job.

He got arrested for DUI not drugs, he certainly won't be fired. I doubt he will even get punished besides a fine or something.

Wait until the media gets a hold of it. If it gets enough press they'll have to do something.
Though I don't THINK he should get much heat, it's likely he will. |

Well, that certainly was stupid on Marella's part. I doubt he will get rewarded for this behaviour. Of course, he is currently feuding in-part with Hardcore Holly, so his matches are probably punishment enough. I also doubt we'll see Sober Santino and Constructive-Worker Carlito get the World Tag Team Championship anytime soon. Yes, those names were sarcastic.

They were going to let him go, but he had a warrant for stealing Jerry Stoopid Lawler's delicious sandwich.

He won't lose any push or his job. DUIs happen all the time and we don't even hear about them. Even Kurt Angle got one and nobody cared
It's an out of work matter, and he'll have to pay for it and settle it outside of his work. Other than maybe a fine, which I doubt, it won't have any effect on him in the WWE |

1) They didn't say what he was under the influence of.
2) Has he been charged or just arrested? He could be proved inocent yet. 3) I hope this doesn't fuck things up for him. Although its not as if they can depush him much further. He's in a tag team already, the only way down from here is the cruiserweight belt. |

TMZ.com has some more details:
Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella was arrested at 2:57 AM EST in Tampa, Fla. for suspicion of driving under the influence. Marella, real name Anthony Carelli, was pulled over by officers after they witnessed his car drifting back forth on West Shore Boulevard -- and after he was stopped they noticed he had "bloodshot, watery and glassy eyes." Carelli then failed two field sobriety tests -- he couldn't hold his balance and did not take the correct amount of steps requested by the officers. He then told officers he started drinking at midnight, and had three Miller Lights and one Kamikaze. After being taken to the Hillsborough County jail, Carelli's BAC registered at .061 and .062. Although the legal blood alcohol content in Florida in .08 -- he took the test nearly two hours after being arrested and can still be prosecuted. He was released on $500 bond around an hour ago. |

So he's under the limit but because it was 2 hours later he gets convicted anyway? So how does that work. If he's under, he's under, and if the cops take 2 hours to process him thats their dumbass fault. Surely they now have to prove that it takes that amount of time to process more than 0.019 blood alcohol.
I mean its not hard to think of reasons why someone who travels round the country just to get beaten up might be glazed / bloodshot. Aside from the obvious weed jokes, I would imagine a WWE shecdule alone leads to bloodshot eyes and a glazed expression. Look at Perry Saturn's WWE run for example ![]() |

Correct, but you need proof he was over at the time. And there is none. End of story.

Otherwise, it was a nice little statement. Too bad it relies on the notion that they can't book him with it. Read the TMZ article if you're unclear on that. Besides, standard reduction of BAC means he was well over the limit at the time. They can demonstrate this by taking his BAC and adding 2 hours to it. End of story. ![]() |

In reality, his BAC would have been between .09 and .10 at the time, well above the legal limit.

They really should have breathalyzed him on the scene, though. With the right lawyers, which I'm assuming he can afford, this seems like it could easily be beaten.

Do they not use roadside testing equipment in the states? I agree KK that he probably was over at the time, but I just don't see why it takes 2 hours to get a reading. In the UK if you are under when tested, you are under, end of. |
