I have no idea how Masters will work as a face. Carlito is obviously the more popular of the two, and though in a way I'ld rather Calito stay heel, I think Carlito would make the better face.
Any thoughts?

Masters is the hulking type of person Vince liked to push back in the good ol' days so he's going to try his luck with Masters.

They need to play up the 'stupid' angle on Masters that Lawler was talking about. As for Carlito, he is like the small version of the rock, just with less mic skills and less dynamic moves.

Actually, Carlito can do a whole lot more in the ring that The Rock ever could... but he should just learn to do it with more snap, which is what Rocky had going for him.

Yeah, Calito is a future WWE Champion I reckon. He has the personality which is 90% of the battle. His in-ring skills as you said arent too shabby either. |

I did not say rock had more moves than Carlito. I just meant that rock did the moves he knew with well, it's hard to describe, but more flair and explosive force.

they want Carlito as a face, and will Push him in the "Cheat 2 Win" get over as a face while being a heel tactics with him.
Worked for Jake, worked for Roddy, definitely worked for Rock/Austin, Eddie made himself using that gimmick, and it will work for Carlito
If carlito keeps busting out the high flying crowd popping moves while still keeping that "Cheat 2 Win" attitude it's gonna go great for him
All he needs to do is "ooze machismo"

i dont think people can get behind a face masters, just because of the physique that he has, his look alone would have heat alone carlito in recnt weeks, even months has been the one getting the pops

Why are we talking about a face Masters? He's going heel.

I'd find it easier to get behind a face Carlito.

Maybe im missing something, but I thought for sure it was Carlito that was turning face. Fans were cheering and Lawler was defending his attack on Masters

I think ESPN's take on the Bowflex commercials can be applied to Chris Masters: guys hate guys that look like that guy.

I actually find the Masters/Carlito ordeal to be the most interesting thing about Raw.

I think that it is a shame that they didn't have a third guy in that group before they split them up. It would have lent itself to more funny promo moments if they had a third guy to play off of.
I know! Maybe they can bring back O'Hare. He can play the two off of each other for his own benefit somehow. Too bad creative isn't intelligent enough to make that work.

There is no way Masters will be a face against a over Carlito. Masters gets no reaction week after week.

Carlito doesn't half 1/4 of the Rock's storytelling ability and the Rock was 15x the athlete of Carlito. He just worked a main event style from 1998 to the day he went to Hollywood. Athletically, there is NO ONE in WWE history that matches Shelton Benjamin, the Rock, Kurt Angle, Mysterio, and possibly Lesnar. |

Well, there are a lot more of people in WWE more athletic than Lesnar, but not people in the same size.
