This Santino love is just sickening if you ask me. EVERYONE hated him when he was a babyface, but oooh...he turned heel and now everyone is creaming their pants over him. What a joke. I'm sorry, but if you can honestly be entertained by this crap (that makes Cena's toilet humor seem hilarious) then it sure doesn't take much to make you happy. It seems like the cheaper the character...the more the internet fans just drool over him or her. "I'm not entirely in love with your tone right now"

Well to be fair they haven't let Kennedy do ANYTHING lately He's in one of the best feuds going right now. He and Jeff Hardy.

Jeff is the random fall-back IC champion when the other stars are out, and there's not much of promos between the two, seriously I don't see how that can be one of the best..

I like Kennedy but this year has not been kind to him, losing MitB and costing himself a major push by putting his foot in his mouth. But Santino's gold on the mic due to being an arrogant heel but at the same time, a complete goof ala Kurt Angle's early WWE career.

That indicates something about the state of the WWE, now doesn't it? But seriously...from an in-ring standpoint, the feud has been gold.

I disagree, Jeff Hardy is one of the better choices to hold the IC title. IMO. Also, the RAW prior to Cyber Sunday had a lengthy exchange between them on the mike. The matches themselves have been pretty solid also, arguable the matches of their respective nights. The tag match this past RAW was a good way to include Designated Hitter and Carlito. The IC title is in danger of having more than two or three legitimate contenders.

All the love for Kennedy was/is a mystery to me...
Sure, the self-announcing thing was interesting, and KK shows good intensity in the ring, but that's pretty much all I can say about him.
Bob Holly is intense (too much at times), but I'd not plead for give this man a Main Event spot...
Kennedy being hailed as the new Mr.Perfect was an overstatement I just didn't get.
On the other hand the Santino love is more justified, but unless he shows what he can do in the ring, it'll still be too early to hype a new phenomenon.
So, Kennedy is the better wrestler (albeit nothing remotely special), but Santino is much more entertaining. Having better material to work with, promo-wise, helps him a lot.

I like Kennedy more still. Him lying is not really a big deal at all. Doesn't change the fact he wrestles tons better than Santino.

Kennedy the person...well, that's questionable at best. But maybe I'm just able to seperate what I see on TV from what I read about.
I like Santino as comedy relief, but I still prefer Kennedy overall, and still think he has potential as a main-eventer down the road.

i like both fo them persinally. although i lost alot of respect for him in the whole "steroids" thing, i think of him the same way i think of randy savage and chris benoit, in that he is a great wrestler, and i find him entertaining. whatever he chooses to act like outside of the ring is fine by me. i think he is tremendous in the ring, and a good mic worker, so therefore i like him.
marella on the other hand is just awesome-a. he actually CAN wrestle (as seen by his ovw work), but has yet to really impress anyone between the ropes, but his promo ability and charisma more than makes up for that.

i am just not a big fan of marella. he has good delivery on the microphone but that just doesn't do it for me. maybe he was better in ovw, i can't claim to have seen a surplus of his work there. however i believe he should be judged on how he is now, and now i am not a real fan of his in the ring. i tend to be more a fan of the actual in ring work, that being the reason i tune in, so i don't go that gaga over him. while he does have good delivery, with scripted promos it seems to me their are others on the roster that if given material that santino is given could be just as good at it if not better, while still putting on better matches. that is just me though.

I personally like Kennedy more, but I think Santino is more popular on the forum.

I enjoy Kennedy more in the ring and Santino more outside it. Kennedy has seemed "off" lately though...

Kennedy has been pretty much hated since he got suspended (even though I still like his character, I can't understand why he would blatantly lie.) To quote the late, great Bill Hicks. Because he's a company man, to the bitter f***ing end

I honestly don't get people saying that Kennedy's steroid comments have hurt their outlook on the guy, especially when you get a lot of people here saying that they don't give a rats ass about the backstage stuff when it comes to who they like.
