It is being reported on the inter webs that according to fans it attendance at the “WWE LIVE” show in Toronto CA today, professional wrestler Santino Marella (real name Anthony Carelli) announced his retirement. Santino was billed as Italian but really is Canadian. According to fans Marella came out and said he’s suffered his third neck injury and he’s sorry he can’t preform anymore but is proud to be Canadian.

Santino Marella made his debut in 2003 as a fan in the crowd who challenged the late Umaga for the IC title and actually ended up winning the title with a little help from Bobby Lashly

He was a face his entire time with the WWE & served predominately as a comedic relief. One of his most memorable moments was his “Santina” persona who just so happened to win the very first “Miss Wrestlemania battle royal” at Wrestlemania 25

On behalf of everyone here at DTRTwrestling we would like to wish Santino all the best and thank him for the memories.
Are you a fan of Santino and are you saddened by the news? What is your favorite Santino moment? Let us know.
