There was a heel turn tonight on WWE Friday Night SmackDown and if you’ve been keeping up during the last few weeks then you probably saw it coming.
Santos Escobar presented footage to show that he was not the person behind the attack on Dragon Lee a few weeks ago. The security footage showed that it was actually Carlito who was behind the attack.
The turn has been teased for weeks when it was obvious that Carlio wasn’t happy about being overlooked when Mysterio picked Andrade and Dragon Lee as partners instead of him.
After the attacker was revealed, Carlito hit a backstabber on Lee before shoving him into Mysterio and then running to the back.
