WWE News WWE's Carlito still unhappy with his push, had his contractual release papers in his hand Mar 28, 2008 - 10:40 AM Email This Article | Printer Friendly Page Send Us News & Results | Back to Main Listing Carlito expressed frustration with his current push yet again during an interview with Between the Ropes on Thursday night. "Things aren't great," he said. "It's a work in progress, so we'll see how it goes. Carlito's been sucking for a long time so hopefully 2008 will be a lot better." -Carlito on whether he came close to leaving the company: "I was close. I was almost out the door. I had my release papers in my hand at one point. We talked some things over and now I think we've smoothed things out, so we'll see how things go... Don't get me wrong, WWE is a great company and Vince McMahon is a great guy." -Carlito on playing a babyface role: "Carlito in no way is a babyface. That's where all the trouble started is they made Carlito a babyface, which I was totally against. The character is not a babyface... I'm back in my comfortable surroundings so hopefully it goes well." To listen to the full interview, visit BetweenTheRopes.com. Powell's POV: I get a kick out of Carlito. He doesn't do many interviews, but he's never afraid to speak his mind when he does no matter how much heat he gets over it. As for him nearly leaving the company, a Dot Net Exclusive story stated last month that Carlito told friends he wanted to sign with TNA last year.
