About Anthony Carelli
Anthony Carelli is an Italian-Canadian Sports Entertainer currently working for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as character Santino Marella. Carelli has been with the WWE since August of 06 and his comedic role within the company's programming has steadily made him one of the fan favorites, and a staple within the company's RAW brand. Carelli had his own Internet based show called Santino's Casa (07-09) where he would give a break down of his views on local events in the news. Santino's Casa was not only successful but provided an excellent medium for Carelli to really fine tune his skills in front of the camera. Carelli is in the process of taking his skill set to television in the form of the first ever WWE situational comedy. Carelli takes part in numerous charities both in Canada and the U.S. and also makes time to visit elementary and secondary school students in an attempt to motivate kids to increase the amount of focus and discipline they invest in their own lives. Carelli is very much looking forward to the opportunity of better connecting with his fan base.
