10 Best Moments From WWE’s Worst Performers

Before he was selling timeshares in the Caribbean or pretending to be a bull fighter (who, weirdly, hung around with a man dressed as a bull), Primo Colón actually had a chance to get over as a tag team star. Forget the duff gimmicks he's shared with cousin Epico, because it was with his brother Carlito that Primo had most success.

Following a brief stint on Raw bad-mouthing Carlito, Primo moved to SmackDown and formed a fun-loving team with his sibling. When the pair captured the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship on WrestleMania XXV's pre-show, they seemed all set, and the team's dynamic had an air of Los Guerreros from five/six years before about them. And that's high praise indeed; Eddie and Chavo Guerrero were awesome as a team.

Things fell apart for Primo when Carlito left WWE in 2010. Though he's always been a dependable in-ring worker, Colón has never been taken seriously by the creative team. That short stretch with Carlito remains his best work.
