Santino Marella is a probably in the trouble

Recommended Posts

From PWInsider:

 

World Wrestling Entertainment's Santino Marella was arrested at 2:57 AM this morning on charges of Driving Under the Influence after being stopped at 6301 Westshore Boulevard in Tampa, Florida. Marella is currently being held on $500 bond. I'm sure we'll have more on this later today.

 

So does WWE punish him for getting arrested or quietly ignore it and continue pushing him and Carlito?

Pleasepleasepleaseplease.

I hope not.

 

Although, it's kinda moot, since I'm usually watching on DVR when their segments come on, and am able to FF them into oblivion on my way to catching up to the live feed.

Sadly, my immediate thought was at least he didn't use a racial slur. Since WWE seems to enjoy making fun of itself getting in trouble (such as Vince calling out Congress in a promo), maybe Santino can parody the Mel Gibson meltdown a few years too late. I think Santino butchering "sugartits" has potential. (Spiff, it breaks my heart that you hate Santino.)

Santino is completely bogus.

 

Abdullah wasn't from Sudan, but that doesn't make him bogus. Santino is good for what he is, a comic low-midcard heel.

He was under the legal limit but failed two roadside sobriety tests so something must be up here. He was 0.061 and the limit is 0.080. So either he is a drinking lightweight to be that drunk while under the legal limit or there was a drug interaction(prescription or illicit??) of some sort.

 

Or maybe he was at a Gay Bar and somebody slipped him some GHB...

Mark me down for someone else that doesn't care. He's ok, but nothing special.

I hated the guy when he debuted but his heel gimmick has grown on me.

 

Same here. When he was still trying to play a face, I couldn't stand him and wanted him off my TV as soon as possible. Then Umaga started spiking him every week, he became a heel, and BAM..I love the guy.

I think it's hilarious that when RVD & Sabu got arrested, WWE.Com was quicker than some of the rumor sites to post it. But they still haven't said anything about this.

I like that this story made WWE.com's Industry News.

Legal limit is a myth, it's 0 tolerance. Roadside sobriety tests are subjective. If they wanted to bust him, they bust him.
