Carlito: Anything Left and whose to blame?

MikeRaw

Alright, so we all know about Carlito's problems in wwe. And then, finally, he was drafted to SD. Noone really even thougt of a main event push, but we allt hought he would get some kind of a push. A month later... He hasn't even been on the show. It's pretty clear they don't want him. I mean, it's not even like they are even noticing him (liek Maria, when she isn't on), instead, they are just having him sit at home, or wrestle dark shows.
So does anyone here think Carlito has anything left in WWE, or should he leave for good?
And who do you think is to blame here/ Carlito's lack of effort, or WWE not pushing him? Don't say both, just choose whichh is more of the problem...

I'd say give him a Tag Title... find him a legit partner, make him face, give him a Tag Title, and see how that goes

He should just leave. It's pretty clear that Vince will never view him as a serious contender to anything. I say Carlito jumps ship to TNA and debuts as Salinas's cousin, or something.

Well he hasn't done himself any favours over the last few months. His lack off effort, Airing he opinions about wwe stars and how unhappy he is and wanting to leave dont think has helped his cause any. I dont see him having much of a future TBH his best bet is to leave and goto his dads wrestling promotion on try it on TNA. It wouldn't be no great loss really.

I think that just as Elijah Burke, as they are getting some sort of repack, I think WWE are just freezing him so that fans can forget a little bit of him, then bring him back with his new look

Exactly cms.

I hate how tna fans think if he jumps to tna, the grass is going to be soooo much greener on the other side. If carlito thinks if in his that if he jumps to tna, they will just hand him the belt, he has another thing coming. I can't see him doing much in TNA either. Carlit is good, but he's not that great to be complaining why isn't he a main event star. LOTS of stars in the past were midcard in wwe and had great careers ( Razor, Perfect, Piper ) So maybe Carlito should be thankful he's was handed a few midcard titles.

As far as who's to blame??? No one really. If we should place the blame on someone, maybe Edge, Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, CM Punk, John Cena. Maybe those guys are just a little bit better than carlito.

I blame WWE!

WWE push that Russian guy on Smackdown who in the most part bores me with his no music having entrance. A guy like Carlito who once was in a title match cant seem to get a push. What push has WWE given him to show that he isnt giving any effort? If its because of his matches well whens the last time he had a match?

When that russian guy wins the wwe championship, then you can blame the wwe. The wwe pushed carlito to moon when he debuted. Problem was that he had a piss poor attitude and it still hasnt improved.

Attitude or not doesnt seem WWE gives a decent push to anyone look at what a push is a dead guys wife with a guy who still thinks he's Rated R.

I think carlito only has himself to blame.. he can't expected main event push just like that he has to work for it and i haven't seen him improve or evolute he's pretty much the same carlito gimmick when he debut in 2003...

He may of get easy pick main events in his dad promotion wwc..

Yeah seriously...WWE is just repackaging him.....I remember a story of him sporting cornrows now and shit.....Carlito is gonna be given a pretty decent chance to shine on SD imo...If he fails then I guess hes done.....I never saw Carlito as a main event guy anyway...

Yeah, you know your push is pathetic when you are on every segment on Smackdown and the show is built around you.

Can't blame Carlito or WWE, it's just right now they got guys that are just getting over. There's really no real room for him (kinda). The tag team with him and Santino was great but with DiBiase coming in, their plans got scratched. I say it's bad timing.

When he comes back, like Burke, fans will see him in a new light and with a new gimmick (that will hopefully work).

Carlito will be leaving and that is a good thing. Its WWEs fault tbh, he was there best youngest heel when he debuted and then they moved him to RAW and done nothing with him after the elimination chamber. He should have stayed up in Upper mid card or atleast mid card but they didnt, they just took him off the air...

Carlito for TNA :D except when he debuts have him win the world title not mid card title :shifty:

I doubt the WWE have much left in the tank for Carlito and to be honest I doubt Carlito is interested in giving much more either, he was a good heel at first but like Kennedy his move to RAW killed him.

I doubt he would ever have been anywhere near world title material but thats not a slant, there is far to much focus now on getting to the main event and not enough on solid mid to upper card guys and Carlito could have been that!

I think both WWE and he himself are to blame, they have given him little or no good storylines and he appears lazy whenever he does get a chance!
