Not saying the positive parts of the gimmick is a bad thing, however, his real wrestling talents are being wasted, and that is sad, because he really is a great force in the ring. A useless, comedy style should be reserved for someone who isn't that great in the ring and needs something to hang on to that overshadows not-so-stellar wrestling abilities (though I would personally wonder why someone with shit talent would be allowed in the business, but, we get enough of those to show it happens).
I dunno, I am just one who shakes my head at good talent that doesn't actually get to show their good talent. A lot of people probably don't know how good Santino really is because he just comes out and acts like a fool all the time.
