The Colons
 
Is anyone else chuckling a little at this?

For those who don't know, Carlito returned (skinnier than ever) to team up with his newly-hired brother, Primo Colon (pronounced ko-LOAN, supposed to be spelled with an accent over the 2nd "O"). Though not announced as such, the big bottom screen said "THE COLONS" in huge lettering.

Fox 09-14-2008 10:56 AM

It's just the WWE. Don't be so anal.

Afterlife 09-14-2008 11:01 AM

Such a shitty name. :nono:

Vastardikai 09-14-2008 01:09 PM

Who is the asshole who came up with this name?

Xero 09-14-2008 01:14 PM

Sid could be their man on the inside.

Mr. Nerfect 09-14-2008 01:16 PM

I don't get it, what else are the WWE meant to call them? The San Juan Southpaws?

Afterlife 09-14-2008 02:20 PM

I coulda pulled a better name outta my ass.

And who's being anal? I was just chuckling at this. A little high school humor, if you will.

Ninti the Mad 09-14-2008 02:58 PM

They should just made it 'Los Colons' so people would pronounce 'colon' (i would assume) in a spanish way.

St. Jimmy 09-14-2008 03:04 PM

El Colons.

So when they get fired... will it be called an enema?

Evil Vito 09-14-2008 07:45 PM

<font color=goldenrod>I think the bigger problem here is that WWE once again shows that it has no idea what its doing with someone. :o They stick Primo on Raw, then after one show they realize there's nothing for him to do there so they move him.

Not a complaint, as I like the tag team and it's the right move...I just find it funny that they couldn't decide to team him up with Carlito BEFORE bothering to have him appear on Raw.</font>

I'm calling it now. Terran's going to really spaz out in the next few weeks. This post is a warning sign.

NeanderCarl 09-14-2008 08:15 PM

Maybe they'll bring in RP as their manager?

TerranRich 09-14-2008 10:14 PM

Spaz out? Far from it.

Guys, that joke went over my head, because I'm just used to being crapped all over for some of my posts. That's all. I apologize for missing the obvious humor.

Is it that big of a deal?

A quote like that is cause for concern and the tell-tale sign of someone like darkpower who got defensive and can't trust anyone, which is exactly what you did here.

It's coming, though now you'll probably turn it into a gimmick and do it on purpose, losing all its effect.

WHAT THE FUCK?

Thank you for ruining TerranRich's spaz, thank you for ruining what would have been my only mark out moment in a year.

WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU TYPE "SPOILERS" WHEN YOU TYPE WHAT THE SPOILER IS RIGHT BESIDE IT!!!!!!!!!

Now I know TerranRich will spaz, he is my favourite poster, seeing his damn spaz out would have made me mark out so bad, but no, you have to fucking ruin it, couldn't you make the title "major spoilers" alone? Seriously man, use your goddam brain. Why mark for spoilers when the spoiler is right beside where you mark for spoilers.

Fuck this shit, you're not the only one who does it, so many people do, i am out of the fucking wrestling forum besides for tipsters forever. [/color]

TerranRich 09-15-2008 02:07 AM

Okay, I guess a spaz is forthcoming then.

And didn't I already turn it into a gimmick? That's how I make light of things.

You guys are silly. :P

He was making a crap/anal/colon joke, Xero. Get with it.

Mr. Nerfect 09-15-2008 04:06 AM

It's kind of weird that Carlito is now wearing black and white baggy pants. These guys need to get on the same page and get some matching attire.

Mr. Nerfect 09-17-2008 04:48 AM

I can't believe Xero missed that, to be honest. Just after bolding it, too. :nono:

Carlito and Primo will be WWE Tag Team Champions soon, methinks. It's a good thing. I could actually get into them as a team. Part Hardy Boyz, part Los Guerreros.

How are they like the Hardys? Because they are brother? Did you just say Los Guerreros because they are hispanic? You are so racist.

TerranRich 09-17-2008 11:41 AM

Yeah I don't really see that either. They're too new (as a team) to really engender any opinion as of yet.

BigDaddyCool 09-17-2008 12:13 PM

I mean we have seen Carlito wrestle for years now, simply being in a tag team with his brother isn't going to drastically change his style. He wrestles like neither of the Hardies nor the Guerreros. As for Primo, I have seen all of one match of his, and it didn't remind me of any of the before mentioned wrestlers. So I don't know where noid is getting this.

TerranRich 09-17-2008 05:17 PM

And was it just me, or was Carlito skinnier? Like VERY skinny.

BigDaddyCool 09-17-2008 05:25 PM

Yeah, there have been reports of him dropping wieght and getting a hair cut.

I am not racist, Republican. I drew an analogy to The Hardys because they are high-flying brothers who are considered a success with the ladies without really being particularly good looking (if you believe reports about Carlito). I drew similarities to the Los Guerreros because one is a more established singles wrestler than the other, who now team up, using a luchadore style with sneaky heelish personality attached to face characters.

Oh, and because they're Hispanic. :roll:

I can't see how that's racist because I didn't make any assumptions based on their race other than it is their actual race.

He was wearing baggy pants, keep in mind. Also, his hair is pretty much the same, BDC. He wore the dreads at a house show to groom the fro, I believe. If Carlito went between dreads and afros on a weekly basis, I would pretty much mark-out.

Also, I suspect Carlito's wrestling style will change. As a face, he is allowed to fly more, something he never did too much of as a heel. He's capable of really going when allowed. The WWE also seems to be lightening up on their cruiserweight stylings, as evidenced by Evan Bourne. Primo, in particular, seems to have the shackles off him a little bit, and Carlito will probably be allowed to keep up. This is also the first cruiserweight tag team Carlito has been a part of since joining the WWE, so his tag team stuff will probably be more flowing and punctual. It's also the first face team he has been a part of.

BigDaddyCool 09-18-2008 10:55 AM

Destor 09-19-2008 06:39 PM

They should bring back The Dicks and have them fued with The Colons.

Afterlife 09-19-2008 07:18 PM

The Dicks would fuck them up.

Vastardikai 09-19-2008 07:28 PM

But the Colons would shit all over them.

NeanderCarl 09-19-2008 07:57 PM

But knowing WWE, when the Dicks flop (:shifty:) again after a program with The Colons, then the Dicks would get shafted (:shifty:) once more and face the axe, and The Colons would get the "can't work" label and eventually The Colons would face the can (:shifty:) too.

So basically if the Dicks make a mistake, the Colons backsides would be on the line.

Simply put... The Dicks' cock-up; the Colons' ass.

I'm just waiting for the news story that says that The Colons have asked for a release.

Lux 09-19-2008 11:53 PM

I like them alot. They are growing on me.

Afterlife 09-20-2008 02:47 AM

Honestly, their segment tonight was awful. I'd call it "shit", but I'm not joking. It was really, really awful.

Juan 09-20-2008 02:49 AM

Yeah that "Gracias!" bit at the end ruined it for me.

Destor 09-20-2008 02:50 AM

I liked it. The live crowd on the other hand obviously didn't care. Talk about dead.

Afterlife 09-20-2008 03:27 AM

The dead crowd made it even worse. Curt and Jerk were more fluid and comfortable than the Colons, and that's kinda backward. You'd think Carlito would have grasped minimal acting ability by now, but he and his brother were simply terrible.

Gertner 09-20-2008 10:18 AM

They were friggen annoying as fuck. Trying too hard to be Eddie and Chavo. Bad, just bad.

Tommy Gunn 09-20-2008 12:37 PM

At least Carlito has something to do after being on the rim of unemployment.

If you got that from the Thin Blue Line, infinate bonus points to you.

So will they have a tag finisher called the colonoscopy? For some reason I see it being an electric chair type manouver.

Mr. Nerfect 09-21-2008 01:01 PM

Haven't seen the segment yet, but I assume that saying The Colons were trying to be like Eddie & Chavo is racist.

I want to see Primo Colon missile dropkick opponents into the Backcracker. Maybe a flipping front missile dropkick so that when he does that move in singles matches, it'd be a convincing finisher itself, and not just be a regular high-flying move made finisher.

The Tolands were treated like shit in the WWE, which is sad, because they were a talented tag team. Now the "cousins" apparently don't get along. If the WWE brought them back with that gimmick, however, I would mark out. I was also thinking the other day just how much I miss The Heartbreakers ("Why do we take their last names?" "Because we don't have last names silly").

TerranRich 09-21-2008 06:26 PM

God, even "Primo Colon" sounds like a laxative brand name.

Mr. Nerfect 09-24-2008 10:42 PM

I'm surprising the team is meeting this much hostility. It's a great way to humble Carlito and start using him again. It's a great way to introduce fans to his younger brother. It also provides SmackDown! with a charismatic and solid tag team. Wait until they get to work a few more matches together. People will be in love with them.

Xero 09-24-2008 10:42 PM

lol, humble.

Afterlife 09-24-2008 10:45 PM

As long as their match work doesn't involve either of them talking, then it might not be so bad.

Mr. Nerfect 09-24-2008 10:46 PM

Not sure about Primo, but I don't mind Carlito on the mic. I didn't mind their introduction video during their first match together. It's probably more the writers than them.

They were Heartbreakers before they were Heart Throbs. And yes, they were amazing.

Carlito is great on the mic, and Primo has potential. Don't hang the guys for one bad night.

Afterlife 09-26-2008 02:26 AM

I'm not dismissing them as performers. Just making clear how awful that segment was.

Destor 09-26-2008 02:30 AM

And it was, but you said they should never speak again, which is a bit harsh. It was bad, but next could be better. Give them a chance, ya know?

Afterlife 09-26-2008 03:58 AM

Well, not "never again", per se. But their match had better just be a match. A steady flow of terrible acting will definitely put off a crowd. Let the crowd develop a reason to welcome Carlito back and ease into the new tag team before trying to "make them funny".

Mr. Nerfect 09-26-2008 10:11 PM

Yeah, I used their OVW name, just because it sounds better and it didn't hide the obvious homosexuality of the characters. They were incredibly entertaining in whatever they did, and not a bad team in the ring.

Weren't they released because they were pretty much too funny for WWE.com? I'd like to see the WWE give them another chance.

Lux 09-26-2008 11:16 PM

Now they are champs, deal with it pussies!

Afterlife 09-26-2008 11:29 PM

The company said their release was unrelated to their .com segments, but that was pretty much bullshit.

D Mac 09-27-2008 06:02 AM

Fucking foreigners. :mad:

Dorkchop 09-27-2008 09:58 AM

Carlito has lost a lot of weight. Has he pretty much stopped working out? He's smaller and less toned than he was a couple of years ago. I'm wondering if his new baggy pants are worn because his legs got really skinny or if he just wanted a new look.

Mr. Nerfect 09-28-2008 04:53 PM

Well, slimming down for Carlito in this new team is probably a good thing. It'd allow him to keep up with Primo a lot easier, and let them mesh a lot more fluidly as a tag team.

Afterlife 09-28-2008 10:01 PM

When exactly was Carlito "toned"?

Lux 09-28-2008 10:16 PM

;)

Mr. Nerfect 09-29-2008 01:08 AM

I personally haven't noticed much change his physique. But I never really "checked out" Carlito, anyway. I was too distracted with Brian Kendrick. :drool:
