Speaking of his father, the man himself has been involved in the two most controversial aspects of Carlito's career. Carlos Colon - the legendary Puerto Rican promoter and wrestling family patriarch - certainly wasn't shy of giving his son a few breaks during the early stages of his career. While working for Carlos' WWC promotion, Carlito has amassed 15 championship reigns throughout his career. Carlos - himself a record-breaking 26-time champion - certainly didn't mind giving his eldest a helping hand to get over. Although WWE are often keen to play up the ancestry of certain superstars, including Bret Hart and Randy Orton, no mention of Carltio's impressive WWC run was ever made onscreen.
