WWE NXT _July 22, 2025 - Santino Marella pissed off by Ethan Pages' insults on United States challenges Ethan Page for NXT Nrth American Championship next Tuesday
Transcript
00:00Today marks the 56th day as the greatest North American to ever hold the North American Championship.
00:18Props, props.
00:2417 Americans before me had the honor and privilege of being North American champion.
00:31But going forward, my plan is to bring more honor,
00:36dignity, pride, and class than all 17 Americans combined.
00:43Now, how I plan to do that is because of who I am and
00:52where I come from.
00:56Folks, my humble parents migrated to North America from former Yugoslavia to
01:02provide my family with greater opportunity.
01:06And because of that, I was allowed to travel the roads of this continent and
01:11truly see every small town with a bingo hall and
01:16every big city with a big arena coast to coast.
01:22Now, if my family had made different decisions,
01:26then I quite possibly might have ended up like all of you.
01:30But I didn't because I was born here.
01:42USA, USA, USA, USA, USA!
01:50USA, USA, USA, USA!
01:59Now, going forward, this championship will no longer represent the continent
02:05of North America.
02:08Because what this championship represents is an absolute lie.
02:15What this championship should do is represent the pure dominance of Canada
02:21over America, Mexico, and every country in it.
02:29Ladies and gentlemen, I was born in Canada, but made in America.
02:39And that makes me the greatest North American alive.
02:44And affords me the privilege of doing this.
02:52And
02:58gives me the honor of bringing my nation great pride.
03:05Quite a handsome title.
03:13Folks, I'm just proud of being from Canada.
03:21But some information going forward.
03:26To claim yourself as a great North American champion,
03:32it will now come with the Canadian standard of excellence.
03:37Because we just do it better.
03:43We are kinder to each other.
03:45We respect each other.
03:47When we take on challenges, we do it with pride and with honor.
03:52And guys, that's just our athletes.
03:55Our civilian life, it's better than yours too.
04:00Our food is better and healthier, our women are hotter and healthier, our air.
04:12It's definitely cleaner.
04:15I mean, guys, Houston kind of stinks.
04:17It does, it's okay.
04:22It's okay, I accept you all as you are, because Houston's in Texas.
04:27Texas is in the US, and the USA is in my North America.
04:33And as your North American
04:39champion, I take great pride in holding this.
04:54But the pride I feel is champion pales in comparison to the pride I have
04:59as a Canadian citizen standing in the spotlight, surrounded by mediocrity.
05:07Now, as you rudely chant,
05:12I would like to close my celebration as your North American champion,
05:18by asking you all to rise for the singing of the Canadian National Anthem.
05:23Are you serious, Grace?
05:26Yeah, I'm trying, I'm not gonna disrespect the man's country.
05:28I'm sorry, I don't have a good singing voice.
05:31But the thought of having an American butcher my national anthem,
05:35I would just rather sing it myself.
05:39That would be sick.
05:49Now, why are you sitting down?
05:58It's the TNA Director of Authority.
06:01Stop pandering, Joseph.
06:10Everyone shut up, you're ruining my celebration.
06:27You know what, you've got a big mouth,
06:33You've got a big mouth, Titan Pagge.
06:39You should be ashamed for yourself.
06:43Now, many people here know that I am from Italy,
06:46and I'm trying to follow in the great combat sports athletes,
06:50such as Bruno Sammartino,
06:54Cannonball Parisi,
06:57and, of course, Rocky Balboa.
06:59But what people might not know is that I currently actually live in Canada,
07:07and I raise my family there.
07:09And trusting you, me, when I say this,
07:12we don't think like you.
07:13Look, the people from Canada, United States, Mexico,
07:20and the people here, they're good people, hardworking people.
07:23And the garbage coming out of your mouth, it makes me sick, you son of my God.
07:30But, of course, you wouldn't relate to these people, would you?
07:36Because you know what you are?
07:37You're a bumhole boy.
07:39All right, no, that's enough of that.
07:48Listen, you're clearly lost.
07:50Look down at your jacket, pal.
07:51Go back to TNA.
07:53This is The Champ Show.
07:55Bye-bye.
07:56You are right.
07:57You are correct.
07:58I am the director of authority at TNA.
08:01But I'm also friends with Ava.
08:03And we're standing in the back and listening to the garbage coming out of him.
08:07I can't take it anymore, so I came out here.
08:10You know what?
08:10One thing you did say was correct.
08:13This title should be held by somebody with dignity, honor, class, pride.
08:20But you have none of those things.
08:22But you know who has some of those things?
08:27Myself.
08:30I'll see you next week.
08:34Next week, what do you think you do call the shots, huh?
08:39Nah, I say we do this right now.
08:42Someone come take this title.
08:43What is happening?
08:49This is insane.
08:50Oh, Cobra.
08:55Paige getting the hell out of Dodge.
08:58But if that one gets made official, guys, we could see Santino Morella.
09:02Could he pull off another miracle line?
