The following was issued on WWE.com this evening.

"WWE Superstar Carlito (Carlos Colon) has been released from his World Wrestling Entertainmentcontract as of today May 21, 2010. Carlito's termination was due to his first violation of the WWE Wellness Program and his subsequent refusal to attend a rehabilitation facility."

Definitely a disappointment. I could have seen him main eventing a few years back. I don't know what happened to him, but he sure didn't reach his potential. He'll be in TNA soon, I guess.

more likely he'll be back in daddy's wwc in puerto rico. he'll clean up in about a year make his return

It's shame... He and Shelton were my two picks for "Future Champs" the first time I saw either of them.

They don't actually say what he was busted for, do they? Must be bad... No 90 day suspension.

[JoshiQ]

From what I've read he was supposed to be sent to rehab, but he refused causing the release. Not sure what the bust for though.
