He's like a modern day Piper, and I think it's fantastic, but in the 80s a character like that could main event and work vs. Hogan, Snuka, etc. Do you think in this day and age a Piper/Marella-like character could main event?

To be honest, I don't think so. No one would take him seriously. He is a comedic wrestler. PAst intercontinental champion is not in his future.

I don't know, I think Piper had more say in how much offense he got in during a match, all while making others look good.
No matter how you look at it though, Santino has worked with plenty of greats so far, for a supposed jobber.

Piper wasn't a Main Eventer, he was overrated.. so no Santino isn't a main eventer considering you compare the two

Lets see Santino has been in the WWE for about a year and a half I say its to early to tell.I think he needs to go after midcard titles more over a couple of years and then see what happens.Nothin happens in about two years from now I say maybe not but you never know WWE has to give Santino a chance and see what happens.

Santino is nothing like Piper. Santino is a joke he was good when he first showed up but then they turned him into a total goof ball.

Sure. If Shawn, Cena, HHH, Batista, Jericho, Punk, Edge, Undertaker, all the WWE roster, everyone on earth all dropped dead - he would have a chance..

Santino is nothing like Piper. Not true, they do share 3 things in common: 1. They're both former Intercontinental Champions. 2. They're both billed from other countries, but are really Canadian. 3. They'll both never be a World Champion. |

Yes they'd just have too give him a chance maybe the following angle can prove that his move set could be changed too make him a dominator such as Lashley and Masters combined.
Have him get beat by Charlie Haas or a recent druggy. Hold on for a minute.
Have him get enraged afterwards and refuse too release his arm bar and Haas screams in pain and they announce later he broke his arm. Have him face a series of lower card guys each time they tap before he even gets it locked in. Have him do like Masters only with the armbar and nobody breaks it. Have him face a guy like Kofi and he makes them tap. Then have him beat Batista in a supposed upset. Have him say I am the master of the armbar.
Have him win a one night tournament for the number one contender too the world title. Have him win the tournament. Have him face Punk/Cena for the title but never gets a chance too lock it in. Have him get a rematch this time in an I Quit match. Have it go back and forth with chairs and weapons. Have the face go for a firemans carry but he counters into an armbar. They lift him up with repeated powerbombs but he doesn't let go and they eventually pass out.

Neither is the IC champ one or never being world champ one, though another to add to the billed from another country but really from Canada one is Larry "Abdullah the Butcher" Shreeve, who has of course always been billed from the Sudan, but is actually indeed from Canada. |

And yet, he and Piper, despite having these things in common with Santino, are both way out of his league. |
