2025 has been a year of many departures from WWE, including plenty of big names who were somewhat unexpectedly let go.

11. Carlito

WWE star Carlito

R-Truth announced his WWE departure and returned a week later, but the same couldn’t be said for Carlito.

Although he didn’t hold gold in his latest run from 2023 onwards, Carlito is a former United States, Intercontinental and two-time Tag Team Champion.

It wasn’t Carlito’s departure that was a huge surprise as much as the fact that there was no write-off for him on TV, he just disappeared.

Even Carlito himself has said that he felt it was a bit disrespectful to fans for there to be no storyline explanation for him being gone.
