Regal is better all around than Santino in the ring (with what WWE lets him do), but on the mic he doesn't hold a candle. WWE has never let Santino do what he is actually capable of. He was sick in his pre-WWE days. Like, Kurt Angle sick.

Jericho is going to be stuck in a no-storyline zone until after Wrestlemania, and HBK's storyline isn't going to go away until at the very earliest Wrestlemania.
