Carlitos legacy is now living on in the WWE thanks to his nephew and his brother who are performing as The Colon's on SmackDown Live, but it seems that some of the things that Carlito managed to do in the ring whilst his was still employed by WWE, still live long in many fans memories.
Back in 2009, Carlito looked as though he was about to lose a match to John Morrison when he pulled off one of the greatest reversals of his career. He managed to turn a suplex into the backstabber and secure the win over the former Tag Team Champion, which turned out to be a much-needed win for Carlito at a time when Carlito and his brother were feuding with The Miz and John Morrison over the Bella Twins.
