CARLITO IS OFFICIALIZED AS A SMACKDOWN SUPERSTAR

Carlito returned to WWE during last Saturday's Fastlane, to help LWO (Rey Mysterio & Santos Escobar) against the trio of Bobby Lashley & Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford).

After his long-awaited return, there was some speculation about what his future in WWE would be and what his plans might be.

It was pointed out early on that the former WWE United States Champion would be part of the SmackDown roster, and this was confirmed this Thursday.

WWE posted Carlito's profile on its roster page on its official website, and confirmed that the veteran will be part of the SmackDown roster. It is likely that Carlito will appear on this Friday's show, but we will see what his role will be in the rivalry between LWO and the rival trio.
