WWE on-screen personality Charly Caruso is reportedly done with the company and isn’t expected to re-sign when her deal is up.
Fightful first reported there were backstage issues when the 34-year-old was consistently late for interviews for WWE Raw, specifically with Randy Orton and Sheamus, that led to her being removed from TV. Vince McMahon was reportedly told about what was happening and “took exception” to the situation.
PWInsider reported Friday that she is done on TV and is expected to leave. The recent hiring of Kevin Patrick (Kevin Egan) as a backstage correspondent and the host of Raw Talk essentially confirmed it. Her last appearance was on the February 22nd edition of Raw Talk.
Caruso (real name Charly Arnolt) has done double-duty with ESPN since 2018 and has been frequently seen on First Take. She was recently part of their first-ever all women’s edition of the show. She has yet to post anything publicly about the situation.
The Indianapolis, IN, native has been with WWE since 2016 when she began in NXT. She was the host of Raw Talk and various pay-per-view kickoff shows following Renee Paquette’s departure last August.
Since 2011, Josh has been a contributing editor to Wrestling Observer/F4WOnline.com and also hosts the Punch-Out podcast. He has also written for Fight Magazine, Bloody Elbow, Bleacher Report, and other websites. He's a 2000 graduate of the University of Maine, worked in pro sports, and once was an indie ring announcer.
