At a Raw brand houseshow in Louisville on March 1, Carlito came out to do an interview wearing a CM Punk shirt with his face cut out of the shirt. Carlito basically said that he cut the face out because he was out of toilet paper. It was done in Louisville because Punk is either based there or was based there. Also, Punk never came out to confront him as they're on different touring brands, so they're not building any angle. It's said to be a receipt over some bad blood the two have regarding something to with WWE Diva Maria Kanellis. Punk at one time dated Maria and Carlito supposedly hit on her. Carlito was able to get away with the house show incident because he is currently in good standing with officials after he agreed to not leave the company back in December. Carlito was promised that he'd be used better if he decided against leaving. His standing also explains Carlito landing a spot in the Money in the Bank match. Punk has some detractors backstage, so Carlito was able to get away with doing this even though it was quite unprofessional of him to air out some dirty laundry when they're not building an angle off of it.
And this is the follow up
Carlito's rib towards CM Punk at a house show the other weekend was orchestrated by Tony Atlas. According to sources, Atlas found his way backstage asking anyone who would listen if they knew who a "Chip Munk" was. When he bumped into Carlito, Carlito caught onto the fact that Atlas was referring to CM Punk. Carlito, who still has bad blood with Punk, decided to go along with it. Atlas gave Carlito a bootleg Punk shirt and told him what to say. Atlas was overheard saying that the bootleg shirt was closest thing the kid will come to ever having a piece of merchandise with his name on it.
