Santino Marella hangs up his wrestling boots
Santino Marella ( Anthony Carelli ) who was billed out of Italy has retired from in-ring performing on Sunday night (July 6Th,2014) in his real hometown of Toronto, Ontario during a local house show. The reason for his retirement because of a third neck injury and he has been a footnote in the WWE for the past few years and even if he got healthy he is still 35-year-old so that he could of been one of the next cuts when they do their next salary dump (thanks WWE network).
He had a mid-card career and got over with the fans as they loved his skits and the cobra but it started with a bang as he was picked out of the crowd in Milan, Italy by Mr. McMahon take on the late Umaga for the Intercontinental title and won.
He had great relationships with divas especially Beth Phoenix who overpowered Marella and he had a relationship Maria as well as a short relationship with Emma and even Tamina as well.
He had entertaining tag teams Beth Phoenix, Vladimir Kozlov, Zach Ryder, and the Great Khali and it was a very funny guy to team with as well.
He had a funny skits with the IC title and trying to beat the Honky Tonk Man's 64 week reign and had the Honky meter.
He was a great mid-card act and he will be missed but he will be very busy with his gym in his hometown of Mississauga.
He maybe back time to time in the WWE with special appearance especially in Toronto
