Santino Marella Talks Possible WWE Hall Of Fame Induction, Impact Wrestling Return

Santino Marella, who had been the acting Director of Authority with Scott D’Amore sidelined in Impact Wrestling, returned to in-ring action when he teamed with Dirty Dango & Joe Hendry against The Design (Angels, Callihan, Deaner & Kon) at the recent Rebellion pay-per-view event.

His daughter, Arianna Grace (Bianca Carelli), is signed to WWE NXT. Appearing on the Ignorance Is Strength with Fabian Ojeda podcast, the former WWE Superstar was asked about a potential WWE Hall of Fame induction.

“I don’t know. There are a lot of well-respected people that are pretty confident I’m going in. I don’t know. I hope working for IMPACT doesn’t take away from that anymore. If it happens ten years from now, that would be cool. My daughter is 27, but I also have a one-year-old and a four-year-old. I just wrestled in front of my four-year-old for the first time at the Rebellion pay-per-view. It made me realize that I want to wrestle a little bit just for him and my younger daughter, just to give them a memory. My son is only four. Do you remember shit from when you were four your whole life? A wrestling match is a big thing, he might remember that, or have pictures of it. I’ll probably have to wrestle when he’s seven or eight just to make sure he remembers the event. I may have to wrestle for a few more years, sporadically, and give them some lifelong memories,” he said.
