Don't get me wrong, I like Santino now and he is probably better off face but I was just watching Rumble 08 where he's ripping on the New York teams and he's just much funnier as a heel, I guess he has more freedom with what he can say.

Nah not really, he was hilarious at the time but I don't personally feel being hilarious makes an effective heel. I like his current role best.

I don't find him to be that funny anymore, but he still has his moments sometimes. Hit his peak as a heel with Beth Phoenix IMO.

I prefer my Santino stealing Subway sandwiches.

I like how he has slept with half the divas roster (kayfabe, of course). He may be the biggest ladies man in WWE history.

Face Santino is not even in the same league as heel Santino.

GKind of. He was more hilarious and got a lot more mic time. But he is just too likeable to be a heel now. I wish he had the same sort of material and mic time he had then but as a face with his jibes directed against the heels. More tea time with sheamus segments.
I would have liked him to play up coming in second in the rumble, he could have said how he was the top star on raw since he only lost to a smackdown star. Heel Santino would have been all over that.

He should stick with it.

Face Santino is not even in the same league as heel Santino. Hell yeah. Heel Santino was the first time I was seriously marking for a wrestler in years. He single handedly saved Raw during that time.

He was too good at his role that the fans loved him very early on.
They shat all over him when they tried to keep him a serious face.

Nah, some of his heel stuff came across as way too forced for me.
He seems more natural acting like a goof as a face than acting like a goof whilst also trying to be heelish.

Heel Santino was great, but I think that's more down to Santino than the material. He's just naturally funny. Few people could have made the Honk-A-Meter or a sandwich theft that entertaining.
I still think face Santino is funny (tea with Sheamus was gold) but the heel stuff was better.

I'd rather he play the comedy face role than Hornswoggle.

What's the difference beween Heel Santino and Face Santino?

What's the difference beween Heel Santino and Face Santino? The lack of Honk-A-Meter and stealing sandwiches.

Heel Santino was one of my main reasons for tuning into RAW when he was Intercontinental Champion in 2008.
