5 Biggest Moments of Santino Marella's WWE Career

3: Champion!

Back when Cena and The Rock had begun their much over-hyped feud, there came a moment that stealthily crept out and managed to steal the show in Cena’s own hometown of Boston, Massachusetts. Santino Marella faced Jack Swagger for the United States Championship at a time when Swagger had his Real American gimmick and this happened on the heels of Teddy Long and John Laurinaitis feud.

Much as anything or everything surrounding this remained uninteresting but Marella’s victory was a major boost in this feud’s momentum going into WrestleMania. Also, just hear and watch the crowd react to this surprise victory.
