Carlos Colón is a legendary Puerto Rican professional wrestler, but WWE fans will more than likely be more familiar with the various members of his family who have competed in the company over the last few years. Primo, Epico, and Carlito are all members of this talented family tree, the former and latter being Carlos' sons.

Colón made a number of sporadic appearances in WWE, including a 1978 win over a performer called Jack Evans (not the high flying hero of modern Lucha Underground fame). The final WWE (then-WWF) match for the WWE Hall of Famer came in the 1993 Royal Rumble, won by Yokozuna.

The early and mid '90s weren't a great time for Vince McMahon and his roster, as we'll see at various points throughout this list. Colón entered the '93 Rumble at number 24, eliminating the less iconic Damien Demento before being thrown over the top by Yoko.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
