I think they are trying to turn him heel and I really like it!
Did you hear the boos while the dating game segment? It was wonderful! I think they could make him a great mid-card heel.
It also looks like the WWE are turning Umaga into a face. Do youthink it will work?
What do you think? Discuss.

i think it's being discussed in about 20 other threads already.
but salmonface mozzeralla as a heel is better than him being a face.
umaga as a face will go over like a lead zepplin over niagara falls. ie; wont work. will kill the character quicker than a bullet to bambi's mother's head.

I love Santino the heel, he reminds me of Desi from I love Lucy. Even though he is not Cuban I hope they keep this.

Trying to turn him heel? I think it's already happened, like you said the boos he gets are pretty clear and he's cowardly running away from Umaga

The long term goal is for him to go heel and then, after Maria dumps him, becoming apart of the Heat Elite

To my trained eye it appears that the E is booking Santino to be a real dick, the slippery weasel who always escapes the beating that he's due for, much like the dirty referee Danny Davis back in the day who was biased towards the Hart Foundation in their feud with British Bulldogs.
And like the Danny Davis angle, it will culminate at Wrestlemania when everyone he's offended finally gets a piece of him. All the faces will slap him around, and its going to be a pleasure to see it.
Santino's quote "I'm in lotsa pain" was future tense, day-after-Wrestlemania crystal ball speak.

Working a decent heel turn that will work until he can get back in the ring. Then people will remember how badly he sucks. It amazes me that not two weeks ago, everyone here couldn't stop talking about how badly he sucked, but now that he's cut two or three decent promos he's now "a good wrestler" somehow, despite no inring improvement whatsoever.

That's a whole lot of imagery right there! Definitely the most interesting post I've read all day. |

heel Santino is great.
