Santino Marella is hoping to be back on WWE television in early September following a few months off due to a neck injury.

Marella was talking to Live Audio Wrestling when he spilled the beans about the potential target dates for his WWE return.

The 34 year old Mississauga native is hoping to be on RAW either the 2nd or the 9th, preferring the 9th since the show is in Toronto and it will be some sort of a homecoming for him.

“I would love to hear my music start, and just see the faces of these Torontonians going berzerk,” he said. His family is scheduled to be in the audience that night along with several of his friends so returning on that night would be a special moment for him.
