Carlito was one of my favorites and he had a lot of potential
He was funny aggressive could talk on the mic was over with the crowd and got better in the ring as time went on adding new moves to his arsonal could he have co-main event or even main evented a wrestle mania ?

    I was always a fan of him too but he never really seemed to crossover into a quality main event spot. He flirted with it though, like Kofi he had a pretty good program with RKO that when it ended he went back to the midcard.

    I've read that he just wasn't passionate enough or that he was lazy but I'm not sure I buy it.

    Those WWE Classes of 2004-2007 had some real potential: Paul Birchill, Lashley, MVP, Kennedy, Umaga, Swagger, Punk, etc all could have been main event players today but for some reason or another only Punk made it, the rest just fell off.

    He could have probably been WHC. The big gold belt was mainly used as a try ? to see if you could be a legit main event talent

    They just gave Paul Burchill a ? gimmick, he was pretty good in the ring. Kennedy just couldn't stay healthy so they cut their losses with him. Umaga ran into the career killer John Cena and Swagger just has no charisma.

    Umaga was also on drugs, which is why it's R.I.P. Umaga these days.

    Kennedy had a ton of problems, injuries was one and big mouth was another. Dude was in line for a huge push too, shame.

    I may be in the minority but I loved the Pirate Paul gimmick, when he went to WWECW he was just kind of like a fat, creepy HHH and nobody liked that. He worked the ? out of that pirate gimmick though.

    Swagger squandered two huge chances he probably shouldn't have even gotten, especially considering the talent they chose to ignore to push him. I don't dislike him though.

    Most wrestlers were on drugs. Jeff was always on drugs n he was a 3 time champion within a year.

    Lashley woulda been the black Cena if he stayed. They seemed to be doing big things with him b4 he left even tho they made him lose to Cena ironically.

    Wow not even an option for a WWE title run. I guess we all know that would never happen. They were passing that heavyweight title around like a two dollar ? at one point so I'm sure Carlito wouldn't gotten a turn eventually.
