There's no reason he couldn't be a main fixture in the IC title picture.
You know, Vince, that title on Raw that was once great, but now is fodder for the midcard?

because even though he's the best thing on Raw right now, it's not because of his wrestling. It's because of his comedic antics. Hence, Santino should be involved, however not wrestle on the PPV.
Also, to the poster who said that it's because he sucks in the ring....hellooo??? when has that ever stopped WWE from pushing a wrestler? Vince gives wrestling ability little to no importance whatsoever. Remember Heidenreich? Khali? Bret Hart??? (runs for cover)

I don't disagree with your post about vince(well except the Bret Hart comment). But at this point I don't even consider him a wrestler. He is comedy that is it

Yeah, that wasn't cool. I don't know which was worse, having Santino lose to Lawler, or jobbing out the tag champs in a squash match. To be honest, the tag champs weren't even in their league and they got a nice Conway Pop upon entering the arena, so it's not like people would've cared all that much anyways. As for Santino, he's best when he's talking, he could still be on the PPV in some capacity. But still, the fact that Cade and Murdoch were squashed, even if it was to Batista and Undertaker kinda shits all over the tag belts. If they would have made a match of it and gotten some near falls and then lost anyway, it would have been better. I'm just frustrated that the only title that seems to be worth anything on Raw is the WWE Championship. I miss having a worthy tag division.

Heaven knows that worked so well for him the first go 'round. It's because he was the babyface who was hotshotted the title. Now that he's established as a heel a bit, he could use the classic underhanded dirty heel tactics to keep eeking out wins. If they gave it to him after establishing him in the ring a bit more, I think it would go better.

Boris Alexiev was no better than Santino. Worse really, it was mostly short one-sided matches that I'm sure people would bitch about if it happened on Raw each week.

There's only one match at SS I'm looking forward to.
Khali vs Hornswaggle!

They've got enough crap on the card (Khali Vs. Hornswoggle) they sure as hell don't need this guy on there as well. As for him beating Austin...that should never happen.
If they want a new guy to beat Austin...he should at least be halfway good. Santino sucks epic sized balls.

Santino doesn't just need a match at a PPV, he needs a feud to justify it. Like, a REAL feud with a full-time wrestler. His mini-feuds with Ron Simmons (which never did reach a conclusion) and Austin and his DVD were OK, but now it's time to have him work with someone who's there every week like he is.

Because Santino is so awesome, WWE would have to charge $139.99 for everyone to watch and it and no one could afford it.
