Carlito's Controversial Comment Sparks WWE Backlash

During the October 21 episode of WWE Raw, Carlito sparked controversy with an unscripted remark, saying, 'I gotta learn Chinese,' as Japanese wrestlers IYO SKY and Kairi Sane exited a backstage segment. The comment has drawn significant backlash for its perceived racial insensitivity, especially given SKY's previous experiences with derogatory remarks. WWE officials reportedly expressed disbelief that the line was uttered and subsequently edited it out of all digital replays. While some in the company were unhappy with the incident, no reports of disciplinary action against Carlito have surfaced. WWE has faced ongoing criticism regarding sensitivity issues in its programming, raising concerns about the nature of its content moving forward. As discussions about Carlito's future within The Judgment Day continue, his recent comments have added complexity to his status in the organization.
