14. Carlito (Caribbean Cool)

Carlito and Primo Colón were a fixture of the tag team division for years, and before that, the former competed for secondary titles on both Raw and SmackDown. He also had a bizarre obsession with the abstract concept of "cool", so much so that he decided to call himself "Carlito Caribbean Cool."

In retrospect, the whole thing was weird. You've got this babyfaced ersatz Razor Ramon with a comically large afro, in resort casual dress, spitting apples at people for deviating from his tautological definition of "cool." Also, I don't care what kind of fruit-based hang-ups you have, Carlito's "region of origin + adjective" naming formula is weird. I mean, he's the son of super famous Carlos Colón. They didn't bring Curtis Axel in as Mike Minnesota Moronic, although to be honest it's not much worse than McGillicutty.
