Seriously...does anybody like this guy? He's been Intercontinental Champion for 3 months and he's been on TV 4 times and had only like 3 matches!
The Intercontinental Title used to be such a prestiges Championship, it was defended in a Ladder Match before the World Title was. Arguably from 1994-1996 the Intercontinental Title meant more than the World Title....then of course Shawn Michaels moved to the World Title Division and took his fame there with him and the Intercontinental Championship has been a joke ever since people such as Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, the Rock, and Kurt Angle moved toward the World Title.
Even though Umaga isn't exactly that throw back to old school title prestige, at least he is pretty much on TV every week.....Santino Marella is Champion and isn't even on TV. We don't even know if he is any good or not because nobody has seen him wrestle! Perhaps now that the disgusting and offensive "Mr.McMahon is dead" angle is apparently over, maybe now WWE will actually be bothered enough to put on some wrestling matches rather than explosions in the parking lot and fake press conferences with fake FBI Agents.
So my advice to WWE would either be to use Marella MORE and at least TRY to build him up, or just have him drop the belt and get rid of him....because the IC title isn't building prestige, nor is Marella gaining recognition while both of them are sitting in the lockeroom every Monday night.

I dislike Marella soooo much!!! I hope Umaga wins tonight, only to drop the belt to someone like Jeff Hardy, Randy Orton, or someone else with some talent.
BTW, am I the only one who hates his enterance music?

I really don't like him at all. I really have no idea who he is, besides for the fact that he's the IC Champion.

Not to mention how awful Marella is in the ring.

Not to mention how awful Marella is in the ring. Actually, he has some talent. WWE just does not let him show most of it. IMO

I think WWE's trying to build Marela up to being the John Cena of the 2010s. Umaga looks like a baby when he loses by DQ. I know people hate this but-we need the Dusty Finish!

Yeah, his kicks are real weak. Kind of sad that Umaga MIGHT have to loose to him, sad that Masters has lost to him a lot also...

If WWE wanted a short Italian to get a cheap pop by winning the IC title in Italy, they should have just used Nunzio....at least he's got talent and has paid his dues by being poorly used over the last 3 years.
But then again, Marella is more muscular than Nunzio, and we all know Vince McMahon's sexual fetish for muscular men who are awful in the ring.

Remember the time when Nunzio was being built up as a bodyguard for Jamie Noble. Sad what he has become....

So you hate Marella solely for the way he's being booked? Umaga was booked to do less with the IC title last time he held it. I mean it was barely mentioned during the McMahon/Trump feud. At least Santino has defended it... not to mention Santino could easily work a better match than Umaga... but then again who couldn't besides Khali?

The Intercontinental Title was already meaningless before Santino won it. Honestly, I forget it exists half the time. I have no problem giving the title to someone else, but definitely not Umaga.

Everyone hated the Ringmaster....we loved Stone Cold. Everyone hated Rocky Maivia.....we loved The Rock. Mean Mark who?......Undertaker is a Legend. It's all about how these guys are booked, that is all that matters. WWE could make Marella into the next Hulk Hogan if the booked him like they shove Cena down our throats.
