DOWNS…

5. LWO: Least Wrestling-Oriented?

The WWE draft is several weeks in the rear-view mirror, and the LWO has yet to do anything of note… especially when it comes to getting revenge on Carlito.

Monday night, the group was spotted in the backstage area huddled around Cruz Del Toro, who apparently had been attacked by Carlito, keeping him on the shelf for the foreseeable future. Carlito the fled to the Judgment Day for protection, telling them he needed to lay low until the heat died down.

Um, what heat? Rey Mysterio supposedly had Carlito drafted to Raw so the LWO could get revenge on him for taking out Dragon Lee before WrestleMania 40, but the group has done nothing to strike back at him. Carlito has been on Raw, trying to establish an alliance through Dominik Mysterio with Judgment Day, and the LWO’s only real contribution has been Zelina Vega getting scratched from Queen of the Ring and Rey being eliminated from King of the Ring in an untelevised first-round match.

Obviously, there’s a lot of other activity, but if an entire stable is out for revenge, shouldn’t they maybe be seen trying to pay Carlito back for his transgressions? Instead, they’re getting picked off and put on the shelf one at a time.
