Confirmation On Carlito’s WWE Status Following Fastlane Return

WWE

Former Intercontinental Champion Carlito made his return to WWE at the Fastlane premium live event last weekend, where he was revealed as the third member of the LWO’s team against Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits.

Carlito had been signed to a new WWE deal since the Summer, with his return finally taking place last weekend.

It was reported that Carlito was slated for the SmackDown brand prior to his return, and there has now been confirmation on his status in the company.

WWE have now added Carlito to their active roster page on WWE.com, with him officially being listed as a member of the SmackDown roster.

The following description accompanied his profile:

Son of legendary competitor Carlos Colon, Carlito emerged in WWE in October 2004 as an exceptionally opinionated Superstar who projected a smooth demeanor.

Armed with an apple in hand, The Southpaw from San Juan wasn’t afraid to unload a mouthful of apple and spit it into your face if you were not cool in his eyes. That said, Carlito also had the ability to unload a serious arsenal onto any opposition at the drop of hat.

Carlito made headlines on his very first night on SmackDown when he defeated John Cena for the United States Championship. He would go on to capture the Intercontinental Title and unify the WWE and World Tag Team Titles alongside his brother Primo at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania.

Reemerging in WWE at Backlash 2023, Carlito exploded back onto the scene by joining forces with Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar to defeat Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits in a Six-Man Tag Team Match.
