Former WWE star Santino Marella will go down in history as one of the funniest men in WWE history, and he was considering teaming up with another hilarious WWE character – R -Truth.
Few comedic characters in WWE history could make audiences laugh as much as Santino Marella, who played an Italian character on WWE television. Marella, during a recent appearance on “No Name Wrestling Podcast“, said he would have loved to team up with R-Truth and was also looking forward to taking part in a buddy cop movie with the veteran WWE star.
“As Santino, I would have loved to tag with R-Truth. I think it would have been (good),” the former WWE star said. “I wanted to do, like, a cop movie with R-Truth, where we’re like cops. We’re both good cops…hanging out.”
Truth and Marella had not teamed on WWE television, although they were paired together for a few WWE house shows before the promotion decided to kill the idea. It is unlikely that a tag team partnership between the two could materialize since Marella is currently in TNA, while Truth continues to entertain WWE audiences. Marella, who wrestles sporadically, hasn’t wrestled in WWE in over a decade, but her alter ego, Santina Marella, made a special appearance in the women’s Royal Rumble match in 2020.
The current TNA star recently revealed that he would like to return to WWE, perhaps to compete in the Royal Rumble with his daughter and “WWE NXT” star, Arianna Grace.
