If they can build him up as a serious threat and take away some of his comedic aspects then yes....bonus mark-out points if he wins it in the next tour of Italy.

You could easily prime him into a valid contender over time. He gets the crowd behind him, why not?

NO! God yes get the belt off Del Rio already, but don't put it on that goof. They've already devalued the title enough. Putting it on Santino would kill it for sure. Put the title on Sandow, or Cody Rhodes. Ya know, someone who is believable as champion? Santino could stay off my tv forever and it wouldn't bother me in the slightest

Santino being champion would kill that title, so I'm completely in favour of it.

Only if he gets the WHC for 435 days.

Speaking purely on personal preference, no, I would not like to see that at all. Santino is one of my least favourites on the roster; I find him incredibly annoying.

I'd prefer him over Del Rio, that's for sure.

why not? he'd be streets ahead of the current goomba carrying that useless chunk of gold around. might as well acknowledge that the belt means f*** all in this day and age.

That would kill the title dude... You heard em, boys. Move forward with Santino cleanly beating Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship. He could be a fighting champion, appearing on the lesser shows taking on JTG or Curt Hawkins with the belt on the line. Then one day, we cut to Santino looking around in the back for his World title and he can't find it. He then stops in his tracks staring ahead and says "What have you done??" The camera pans over to a table with the cobra puppet on it, with an outline of the WHC inside it's stomach. Then Santino would be like "You naughty cobra! You ate my World title!" Then he'd make an "oh well" face and march off while doing his little trombone thing for no reason.

Anything to get rid of the World Title and make the IC Title the #2 belt again.

Getting rid of the World title won't help when ADR will just start competing for whatever the new #2 title is.

If Alberto started treating the IC belt like it meant something, then it would benefit that title. If there is not going to be any brand extension, we need one belt that is credited as being "world champion". Crediting anyone who wins the World title as "the guy" is a joke. There can only be one "guy" and that's whoever the WWE champion is. (In before the Vacant is the guy!!! joke)

*Santino would devalue the title*
*Current World champion - the least over person on the whole WWE Roster*
I'd take the gamble.

2007 called, and even they're sick of Santino.
How many title defenses would have to turn into triple threats and fatal four ways so that Santino can lay down for 90% of the match and let others do the work before popping up to hit a Cobra?

I heard that if you turn off the lights and say "ALBERTO DEL RIO'S NEW FOUND AGGRESSION" three times into a mirror that he'll appear and bore you to death!

Crowd already loves Santino and ANYBODY is better than Del Rio as champ, so I say let's do it! Plus it would create some sympy when Sandow cashes in on Santino.
