Carlito Set to Leave WWE, Contract Will Not Be Renewed – Carlito has announced that he will be departing WWE in the coming weeks, as his current contract is set to expire and will not be renewed.
The veteran WWE Superstar took to social media on June 1 to break the news. In his trademark humorous fashion, Carlito joked that WWE wants him to repay the money he’s earned, saying, “My contract is up in 2 weeks. It will not be renewed. On top of that, WWE is demanding I pay back the $ they paid me for apparently ‘stealing money’ from the company.” He continued, “I’ve had my lawyers look into it and after reviewing my footage on Netflix for the past months they suggested I pay them back the money😳”
Carlito closed his message with a heartfelt thank-you to WWE and its fans: “All jokes aside, gracias WWE & especially the WWE universe. Los quiero mucho! PS…I’ll reappear again in another 13yrs. Dios me los bendiga!”
Currently a member of The Judgment Day, Carlito has been featured regularly on WWE RAW, often appearing in backstage and in-ring segments alongside Finn Bálor, Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh, Liv Morgan, and Raquel Rodriguez. Despite his involvement in one of WWE’s most prominent factions, his on-screen role has been limited in recent months.
Carlito returned to WWE full-time in October 2023, aligning with the LWO before eventually transitioning to Judgment Day. His WWE history dates back to 2003, when he debuted as Carlito Caribbean Cool. He was released from the company in 2010 but made sporadic appearances over the years, including the 2021 Royal Rumble and the street fight at WWE Backlash 2023 between Bad Bunny and Damian Priest.
Outside of WWE, Carlito remains active in his home promotion, WWC (World Wrestling Council), where he recently captured the Puerto Rican Championship on Saturday.
His exit marks the end of another chapter in his long-running WWE journey, though fans may be hoping his joking remark about returning in 13 years doesn’t prove true.
