Jim Ross says Carlito was wasted potential

Former WWE Superstar Carlito debuted on the main roster in 2004. His first feud was with John Cena at that time.

 


 

Carlito won the WWE United States Title, Intercontinental Title and Tag Team Championships twice before leaving the company in 2010.

On a recent episode of his Grilling JR podcast, Jim Ross discussed Carlito’s six-year run in WWE. Ross said that Carlito had the potential to be extraordinary, but Carlito’s lack of motivation would cost him.

He’s a good worker. His only enemy has always been his own motivation. He can be as good as he wants to be, so therefore some perceive that he might be a little unmotivated, i.e., a little lazy. He wasn’t lazy in his interactions with the fairer sex because he was a Hall of Famer in that area. If he kept his eye on the prize and wanted to go in and work, he was absolutely extraordinary.

Carlito was advertised for RAW Legends Night this past week. However, the former WWE Superstar did not appear in the end.
