It would have been a different way to go. There have been a lot of wrestlers throughout the history of WWE and several of them will pop up again every so often. One of the most common places to see this take place is in the Royal Rumble, which needs thirty spots filled in for each edition of the match. That was the case last year and now we know more about how it all came together.

WWE legend Carlito took part in a live signing with K & S WrestleFest. During his appearance, Carlito discussed his appearance in the 2021 Royal Rumble. Carlito revealed that he was originally planned as part of the Legends Night just before the Royal Rumble but the decision was changed at the last minute. Carlito would also wrestle a match on Monday Night Raw following the Royal Rumble.

Carlito had a nice run in WWE. Check out some of his time with the company:

Opinion: Returns and surprises like this are some of the most entertaining things that WWE can do. The company is able to offer some very nice surprises and bringing people back for the Royal Rumble is one of the best ways to make it work. Carlito is someone from a bygone era who can still do quite a few things for WWE. It would be nice to see something like this again, perhaps even with Carlito.

What did you think of Carlito’s return? Who else should make such a return? Let us know in the comments below.
