Wow, I'm one of three people that dislike Santino. That is the single most depressing poll result I've ever been on the losing side of. People keep forgetting that guys like Santino can't transcend eras. Theres no way he'd be a star in the 80's WWF or the Attitude era. No one wants to bring things like that up. He sure isnt in my top greteatest IC champs of all time. Boring generic Italian guy whos occasionally funny. Salvatore Sincere > Santino. Who cares if he wouldn't have been funny or over in 1988 or 1998? I find him funny today!

He is one of the best parts of Raw at the moment as this week just confirmed it.

One of the few wrestlers i feel I have to watch.

GLAMARELLA has been money ever since they got together. They are my favorite things on RAW at the moment.

Nobody cares if he will "transcend eras." OMG ATTIDTUDEE ERAA!!!!!11!!!!!11. Those days were amazing but they're long and gone. Santino is entertaining which is why many people are into his character.

Started off good (once he turned heel), got pretty dull, rejuvenated with Beth/Santino alliance.

No. Not. Never.
I've seen test patterns more entertaining than this doofus. I may be in the minority but that's just how I feel. His popularity is even more baffling than Randy Orton's.

He is good, but I would never call him awesome.

one of the best things about watching Raw, seeing what antics he's gonna do this week No. Not. Never. I've seen test patterns more entertaining than this doofus. I may be in the minority but that's just how I feel. His popularity is even more baffling than Randy Orton's. you have the right to your opinion, it just happens to be that your opinion is wrong

I always enjoy him, but perhaps his best contribution has been helping Beth get over.

Amazing. This week's Raw really proved it.
Hey, I'm the 100th vote. Woo hoo and stuff.

100% not awesome.
I haven't followed very closely lately, but I haven't seen a match of his go over 2 minutes I don't think. He's decent on the mike, but so what? I just don't get the love for this 2nd rate Fez.

Salvatore Sincere > Santino. ... i agree. he cant transcend an era... but ya know what the funny thing is... he doesn't have to. he's perfect for the era he's in right now.

He is one of the only few reasons that I watch RAW besides Jericho, the Orton, Rhodes, and Manu angle, and the recent IC tourney. He may not have survived in the Attitude era (and the only reason that is cause he's not risque), but he definitely brings me back to that time period because he is entertaining and is really great on the mic.

He needs another guy who's just as funny to bring him to the stratosphere.
Repackage Colt Cabana as his half-brother, Jean-François Marella.

Boring. If this was the Attitude era he'd be a jobber and never would have risen to the heights he's achieved. He's benefitted from the mediocre current WWE where there's a lack of super stars and creativity. Exactly how I feel about him. Sometimes it's not too bad, but last Monday's antics were unbearable for me. That was about as funny as a train wreck.

Pretty much just sounds like sour grapes.
