While I might empathise with Carlito, he was hardly buried or his career ended.

In any event, this whole "attitude" thing is bullshit anyway. I'm sure it's used as a "good reason" to not push him or whatever, but it's not like they won't push people with a bad attitude. How many times has Orton been pushed?

It's mean something if not for the fact that WWE's enforcement of these things is seemingly arbitrary. There's been heat on a ton of wrestlers for their attitudes and their workrates without any real repercussions (And in the case of people like Orton, repercussions are short lived, even for making the company look bad).
I honestly was not aware of these behaviour issues. I thought that all reports about Carlito were about him not wanting to be a wrestler. But I do agree he should have remained more professional, but as you said, it's easy to empathise with him. I just don't like seeing the blame placed solely on Carlito, like he's the one responsible for his shit charatcer direction.
