I agree with what you're saying, I didn't really articulate my point well. My point is that Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock were so big, Triple H couldn't keep them grounded even if he wanted to. Carlito is not at that status. Maybe it is something he will achieve in time, but to be honest, Carlito's stock has dropped in the company since he's turned face.

I agree Carlito is charismatic, and he can be energetic, and he's got the ring skills, it's just he doesn't have the upwards momentum the Rock/Austin had. Maybe if the WWE gave him a kickstart I would change my tone?
