Following his official return to WWE at Fastlane, Carlito was interviewed by The Ringer Wrestling Show.
Carlito talked about his new theme song:
“They ran it by me. They wanted to change it. I wasn’t crazy about changing it. I, like everyone else, wanted to keep it. I liked it the way it was, but, you know, they said we want to change it and I was like, alright, let’s see what we can do. They asked for my input here and there. I’d say we can use a little more base, more drums, little things like that. Then the lines, I wanted to change. I didn’t want the old lines from before. I wasn’t crazy about it, but I found it was like one of those ear worms where I’d be humming it to myself during the day. I’d find myself humming it here without even noticing. It grew on me a little bit. People don’t like change. I’m not crazy about change, but I think it’s something that needs to be done and you know, just do something to put a fresh coat of paint on everything.”
On if he saw himself returning to WWE:
“I never went anywhere else because I always thought that I’d be back. I didn’t think it would be 13 years, but I always had the feeling that I would be back in the WWE somehow.”
On his return at the WWE 2023 Backlash:
“Bad Bunny is a fan. I think he was a fan of mine growing up. One of his ideas was he thought it’d be a great idea for me to be a part of it. You know, of course being in Puerto Rico, you know, it just made perfect sense.”
