Former World Champion Urges WWE to Sign Back Carlito “In a Heartbeat” for One Unique Aspect Despite Having Issues With the Company – “This Guy Has to Come Back”

WWE Backlash pulled in a huge number last month. And a considerable amount of credit can be given to Carlito, who made a surprise appearance during the May 6 PLE. When he came to help Bad Bunny as an LWO member against Damian Priest and The Judgement Day, he received one of the loudest pops from the crowd.

Surely fans want to see him in WWE again. Seeing his immense popularity among the WWE Universe, former world Champion Booker T suggested the Stamford-based promotion hire him again, as he is good for business.

“I respect Carlito,” says Booker T

On May 21st, 2010, WWE terminated Carlito’s contract. According to WWE’s statement, he violated WWE’s Wellness Program and refused to attend the rehab facility after failing a drug test. He has had his differences with the sports entertainment giant in the past. But he never spoke ill about his former employers.

This is what makes him so special. And that is why Booker appreciates the man and respects him so much. While speaking on Reality of Wrestling podcast, Booker T revealed that because of the aforementioned reasons, he thinks he is a true professional athlete and would love to see him back in WWE.

He said, “That’s why I respect that dude. Because he’s a real man’s man. He ain’t about crying over spilled milk or anything like that. I respect that. For me, for this guy to come back, give him a chance. If it was me, I would sign him in a heartbeat.”

Like the WWE Universe, he also loved the BackLash segment where he came out to help Bunny. Well, everyone has been wanting to see ‘The Caribbean Bad Apple’ back in WWE.

Is the former Intercontinental Champion returning to WWE?

As mentioned already, just a few hours after Carlito’s Backlash return, WWE recorded exceptional numbers. Going to his Instagram account, he reacted to this matter. His tweet hinted that he is going to continue pursuing his adventure in the independent wrestling territories.
