Carlito has started planning his wrestling retirement.
The former WWE star recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet for a new interview. He talked about things such as sharing the ring with Hulk Hogan, getting the spit or swallow T-shirt approved, and more.
During the talk, the 47-year-old was also asked if he has gotten to the point in his career where he has started thinking about his retirement. Carlito noted that he still has a little gas left in the tank, but admitted that he has started thinking about his exit plan:
“Oh yeah, I’m getting there. I still got a little bit left in the tank. Not that I don’t want to do it anymore, just focusing more on the exit plan.”
WWE Run Helped A Lot: Carlito
When asked what the exit plan looks like, Carlito said that it looks pretty good. He noted that his recent WWE run helped set up his retirement:
“It looks pretty good, man. The WWE run helped out a lot with that, with the retirement plan. So, yeah, a couple more years, and then I can ride off into the sunset.”
