Thankfully there's no way for Shawn Michaels to eliminate Shelton this year.

I can see Carlito getting a decent pop, Shelton not so much.

Can I just say f*** YOU to every f***ing wrestling website for spoiling that two "former IC champions" would be in the Rumble? I wanted to stay surprised this year but these assholes couldn't just say "two former superstars confirmed"

Yay! Carlito. Can't wait to hear his theme. Hopefully he joins his bro/cousin as the leader/voice of the group.

I wanted to stay surprised this year but these assholes couldn't just say "two former superstars confirmed" Carlito and Shelton are the first names that you think of when they say "two former IC champs"? It could have been anybody from Billy Gunn to Ken Shamrock to Val Venis to the Godfather.

That's cool. And I hope they stick around after the Rumble. Even if they don't get pushes upon their return, they'd at least be solid hands to help out the midcard division.

But can you hide it? I am surprised Carlito is coming back since he was so vocal about being burned out by the company

I hate Carlito, just figured I'd say that. Shelton/Gabriel/Kidd could have some fun flippy stuff to do.

Would they really help out the midcard division or would they just be "token midcarders" like Kofi? The best way to help out the midcard division would be to showcase the guys they already have.

Carlitos current hair could count as an entry by itself

They wouldn't be like Kofi because they wouldn't be winning the IC/US title every few months. They'd help because they more credible than most of the midcarders already on the roster, so someone beating them would actually mean something. Not to mention they are both the kinds of wrestlers that can get a good match out of just about anyone, and the WWE can never have too many of those.

Carlito is worse than Bo Dallas. Nostalgia blinds.

Wow the internet is going to be stumped when Shelton comes back and doesn't do much of significance like all the other times he's wrestled for companies.
