Never enjoyed his lame ass gimmick but from what I've seen he is actually talented. Guess we will never see him with a better character now.

friverlous comedy has no place in wrestling

could have been alright but they ruined him

just annoyed as they used to have him on instead of ted dibase jnr, who should have been pushed, at the end of the day

He got to kiss Maria in his career. I think he's got nothing left to accomplish in his role. [HASHTAG]#ThankYouSantino[/HASHTAG]

Comedy does not belong in something that is sprung out of carnies?.....

If there is an lifer in WWE it may have been Santino.
For all the low card talent WWE could cut, I'd see Marcella being the very last they'd cut loose.

Vince loves dogsh** humor and who better than Santino?
He'll always have a place in WWE and make sporadic TV returns
I think WWE would maken fans suffer before putting him in the Hall of Fame to get a huge build before finally inducting him

Shame to see anyone retire due to injury, I could see him sticking around doing other stuff though, to be fair he wasn't wrestling as much anyways.

My understanding is he has a school now. It may be difficult to demonstrate proper techniques with a bum neck.

Poor Santino, he has had about as many neck injuries as Kurt Angle!

I did enjoy some of his comedy skits but overall I never really enjoyed his work or took the time to invest in his character. I would like to see him continue in some form for the company though.
