Rey Mysterio has often found himself inadvertently stirring up trouble in the WWE, and it seems another superstar might be poised to betray The Master of 619. Recent events on Friday Night SmackDown have sparked speculation among fans that Carlito could soon turn on Mysterio and the stable he leads.
The WWE Hall of Famer took the helm of the Latino World Order when he resurrected it alongside Legado Del Fantasma during a feud with Dominik Mysterio at last year’s WrestleMania.
However, things took a sour turn when Santos Escobar betrayed him, departing from the faction.

In a recent episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Rey Mysterio issued a challenge to Santos Escobar for a match at WrestleMania XL.
Escobar accepted and teamed up with Dominik Mysterio, while Mysterio surprised everyone by revealing Dragon Lee as his partner, solidifying Lee’s inclusion in the faction.
The WWE Universe was quick to react, with many noting Carlito’s apparent displeasure at being left out of the event. Speculation is rife that The Caribbean Cool could be plotting to betray Mysterio and abandon the Latino World Order in light of this decision.
While it remains speculation at this point, the WWE often weaves continuity and backstage dynamics into its ongoing storylines, particularly under Triple H’s regime.
The actions of Carlito in the coming weeks leading up to WrestleMania XL will undoubtedly be intriguing to watch.
In other news, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently spoke highly of Rey Mysterio’s contributions to the industry.
Reflecting on Mysterio’s journey from his early days to his championship victories, Booker T praised their memorable match and hailed it as one of the highlights of his career.
As WrestleMania XL approaches, the question remains: Can Mysterio and Lee emerge victorious against Escobar and Dominik Mysterio on the Grandest Stage of Them All in Philadelphia? The unfolding drama promises an electrifying showdown at the event.
