Tonight the WWE Fastlane premium live event will take place from Indianapolis and it’s shaping up to be a big show. Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits will be in action tonight as they were originally set to take on Rey Mysterio & the LWO. However, Joaquin Wilde & Cruz Del Toro were taken out of action as part of an angle that aired on Friday Night SmackDown this week.
After it was confirmed that Joaquin Wilde & Cruz Del Toro would not be cleared to compete Rey Mysterio teased that he was bringing in backup when he said he was going to make a phone call.
PWInsider is reporting that the angle was done specifically to bring Carlito back to WWE. The company signed him to a new deal over the summer and has been waiting for a way to write him into the storylines.
Carlito made a surprise appearance at WWE Backlash earlier this year when he backed up Bad Bunny and the LWO during Bad Bunny’s match with Damian Priest. Fans have been patiently waiting for the former Intercontinental Champion to return to TV ever since word of his new WWE deal started making the rounds over the summer, and it looks like his return could be happening sooner than later.
Stay tuned for more updates on Carlito and WWE Fastlane as they become available.
