Carlito's relationship with The Judgment Day has not been the most positive lately, and Finn Balor has previously dropped hints that he might be making other changes to the faction. Interestingly, The Prince may have chosen a superstar who is currently making rounds on RAW. That would be Bronson Reed.
After SummerSlam 2024, The Judgment Day underwent significant changes with Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley being removed from the group and Liv Morgan joining, followed by Raquel Rodriguez after Bad Blood 2024. However, more alterations can be on the horizon, with Carlito potentially being affected.
After laughing at Dominik Mysterio's interest in challenging Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship, Carlito's remarks about IYO SKY and Kairi Sane did not help his case. As a result, The Caribbean Bad Apple might be replaced in the faction by Bronson Reed.
Reed, who is a former NXT North American Champion, has been wreaking havoc on superstars on RAW recently, and one star that he has set his sights on is Seth Rollins. Both men are now scheduled to clash at Crown Jewel 2024. Finn can reach out to the Australian star and tell the latter that he can take The Judgment Day's help at all times to ensure that he emerges victorious.

Reed can even have certain benefits by being aligned with Finn Balor and the rest of the group by being showcased regularly due to their popularity. Meanwhile, the group needs muscle to maintain its dominance, which Carlito cannot provide as he is mainly utilized as a comedic act in the faction.
The former Intercontinental Champion being kicked out of the group can also help his career. WWE can keep him away on the sidelines until the reaction to his recent comments subsides, and he can redeem himself as a serious character once he returns as a solo star.
Did Carlito receive heat after his controversial comments on WWE RAW?
Following Carlito, Kairi Sane, and IYO SKY's segment on WWE RAW, fans were quick to express their thoughts on the matter. While some did not think it was a big deal, some took the comments more seriously. As for the Stamford-based promotion, they followed the latter approach.
According to WrestleVotes on a Live Q&A with Bill Apter on Backstage Pass, they stated that The Judgment Day member's comments were unscripted and he received some heat for it backstage. The report added that it may not be a good look for the 45-year-old star.
It will be interesting to see what will happen next with Carlito and the rest of The Judgment Day.
