Is CCC really the son of Carlos Colon, as claimed on his WWE profile? The last time I saw Carlos Colon, he was wrestling in the 1993 Royal Rumble. Monsoon called him a "youngster", and I still remember to this day how some PWI reader wrote a letter about how Colon was far from being a youngster. And this was 15 years ago! Anyways, that reader sure seemed pissed at Gorilla's comment. Anyways, all I remember when he came down was that he got absolutely zero pop from the crowd, no one knew who he was. Thank god the days of WWE filling the Rumble with unknowns are over...

Carlos Colon wasn't, and isn't an unknown. Perhaps he's unknown by WWE fans. But he's arguably the most famous wrestler ever out of Puerto Rico, and heads up the World Wrestling Council promotion, where he waged war for years with the likes of Abdullah the Butcher. WWE brought Colon in for the Rumble, as well as Mexican wrestling legend Mil Mascaras among others, to cater to the non-WWE fanbase and try to generate additional business.

To answer your question, yes Carlito Caribbean Cool is the son of Carlos Colon.

Thanks JV. On a side note, I just listened to Carlito's theme music from WWE Theme Addict and it's quite entertaining. I can't help but think that the whole gimmick is a gab at Scott Hall.

I like this Character. have watched bits of Wrestling again recently and the high points are Orton, Carlito and Maven (some might not be a fan... but he has the look and - well, he has something about him) I think he is the only Tough Enough winner who truely could be a good Wrestler - given time.
