Santino Marella Calls Out Fans Who Turn on Underdogs Once WWE Pushes Them
Santino Marella criticized wrestling fans for turning on wrestlers once WWE begins pushing them, explaining that some fans prefer to support "underground" acts rather than company-approved stars. Speaking to Amir Jordan, Marella reflected on his own babyface turn that was driven by fan reaction to his comedy segments, noting that while fans may cheer for someone they're not supposed to like, they often lose interest once WWE officially gets behind that wrestler. He described this as fans wanting to back the underdog rather than someone supported by "the system," causing the appeal to fade once a push begins.
