Carlos Colon Comments on Carlito's Release

[Mr. Nerfect]

To be honest, I've always wondered about the Backstabber, too. It doesn't look like the nicest finishing move to either give or take. Carlito doesn't really get to break his fall doing it, either. During the WrestleMania XXIV Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Carlito gave one to Chris Jericho that absolutely made me cringe -- for both men.

It'd be cool to see it busted out once in a while, but it should be a "sometimes" move. If Carlito got himself clean, returned to the WWE with the right attitude, I think he would get another shot. Wasn't Vince afraid of losing him at one point? Everyone knows how naturally talented the guy is. Maybe this could be the "maturing process" many thought he needed?

I'd laugh if Carlito returned as a member of The Straight-Edge Society. The hair gave him a "thing" at first, but it stayed way past its expiry date.

Oooh I remember that Backstabber... That made me cringe too...
