I think the small reaction for Austin was because people were expecting another fake-out before he came out. Santino comes out boasting about how Austin isn't there and he isn't coming. He did the same thing last week. The music goes off and people remember last week and the fake-out. Finally, when Austin ACTUALLY walks out, there is a reaction. Not the biggest thing, but they were caught off guard. That is how I'd explain it to Vince in order to get more power...er I mean, that's what I think the reason is. i agree

I've said this before, but I don't think he'll ever be a main eventer, His wrestling skills are bad and he's not the right size for Vince. Usually a main eventer in WWE has to have at least one of these qualities. He IS pretty freakin´ decent in the ring. He is just bad at brawling and Vince gae hi mthe "I AM FAN. I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO WRESTLE LOL" so he really couldn´t do much in the ring.

It'd be cool if they still had the European title because they could have given him that instead of the IC title.

Santino was brilliant monday. Anyway I like the Piper comparison, super effective small heel. Or really hes just replacing Carlitos spot as a talkative midcard heel.

Still don't like his gimmick, but he's earning a paycheck and he really sells well, so good for him.
Just would like to actually see him wrestle.
It's in the title of the promotion after all.

Santino has the talking part down. Now if he's only passable in the ring he could be a big star. WWE is right to push him, as it seems he gets pretty good (for these days) heat whenever he talks.
