Carlito was noticeably absent from “WWE Raw” following the announcement of his forthcoming exit from the company. He had rejoined WWE in 2023, making a surprise appearance at a Backlash event in Puerto Rico. Shortly after, he resumed television appearances aligned with the Latino World Order. However, this coincided with the Judgment Day faction’s move to Raw after the 2024 WWE Draft. Since then, Carlito had consistently appeared with factions, often involved in backstage segments and interference, but he was missing from Judgment Day’s segments on this week’s show, indicating his departure is imminent.
Carlito, son of Puerto Rican wrestling icon Carlos Colon, began his wrestling career in 1999 with his father’s World Wrestling Council before signing with WWE’s developmental territory in 2003. He spent a year in Ohio Valley Wrestling before moving to WWE’s main roster, where he notably feuded with John Cena and won the United States Championship. Alongside his brother Primo, he captured the Tag Team Championships twice before leaving WWE in 2010.
Fan Take: Carlito’s departure marks the end of a significant chapter for WWE fans, especially those who appreciate his unique charisma and wrestling legacy rooted in Puerto Rico. His exit could open doors for new storylines within Judgment Day or the Latino World Order, keeping the WWE landscape dynamic and exciting.
