How many sharks does this "comedy" act need to jump? Really, it's just horrendous, that stupid walk he does down the ramp that makes me jealous of Jim Cornette on a weekly basis, and the sock thing and the stupid fake accent. He's the Police Academy 48 of wrestlers. Just stop him. It pains me (not really, but I love an exaggeration) to see Emma dragged down with him, it'll get here nowhere as joke/comedy acts have a limited shelf-life. I was so happy Santino got a little heat last night for his tomfoolery. Boo that man. Boo him!

HEY!
I tolerate a lot from this board that I shouldn't, but you cross the line when you dog on Police Academy.

He's had a hell of a run, and will go down as one of WWE's greatest comedy wrestlers... but I'm not sure that there's much else he can contribute at this point.

Poor Emma. She needs to be rid of him before it's too late.

I'm still waiting for a storyline where Santino gets bonked on the head and changes personalities like Fred Flinstone.
That guy though, he's got the best gig right now. Fairly high profile, on TV every week, gets to hang out with Emma and bascially barely wrestles and when he does its a style safer than John Cena.

It's weird. I like the pairing of him and Emma....but he's so stale now it's not working.

Santino knocked Miz out of the Battle Royal.
He's cool in my book.

When he's given something pointed that has a clear beginning and end, he can usually play it to its strengths and still be very entertaining. It's when he's redundantly floating that there's a stagnation. Hopefully this combo of him and Emma goes somewhere, even if it's separate ways.

He's stuck doing the same thing over and over. Why can't he be that heel dickhead he was in 2008. It would be something different.

Dangit Gino......Keep your family squabbles off the forums.
(That said, I do think he could REALLY be transitioned into a serious (Not SRS) wrestler. He has the technical skill)

Santino has weirdly transcended being a comedy act for me. I just sort of think of him in the same way I think of Ziggler or Kofi.

I think he brings Emma up, personally.
And so far Daniel Bryan, now Santino... who's next?

I've never really liked him, but once the Cobra came into play, it became an active dislike. I'm not even completely opposed to the idea of the move, but for a character like Santino, you give him something like that and it will become him.

Gorilla Monsoon is right. Santino's act is beyond stale.

I only cheer for one sock based finisher and it ain't the Cobra.

On the bright side, the breakup of Fandango and Summer Rae means no more Santino and Emma vs. Fandango and Summer mixed tag matches.

If Santino leaves, who will be the "only low card guy we pretend to care about"?

He's so stale that if he ever tries anything else as far as a gimmick/character, he will have no credibility whatsoever.
That takes talent.

Yeah, I'm pretty sick of him myself. Either change his act or get him him outta there.
