One of the veterans in the professional wrestling business is the Caribbean Cool Carlito. His iconic move is him spitting an apple on his opponents’ faces.
Recently, while speaking to Chris Van Vliet on his Insight podcast, Carlito revealed his apple-spitting technique. He mentioned that it is important to get the perfect chew to make sure the apple spit results in a spray and the apple sticks on his opponents’ faces.
“There’s actually a technique of spitting that people haven’t realized. You have to get the right amount of chew, because if you don’t chew it enough, when you spit it at someone, it’ll just be like big blocks and it’ll fall off. If you chew it too much, then it just gets too gooey and it won’t spray enough. But if you get it just right the way I do, you get that nice spray that just sticks all over their face and gets in the shirt and their hair. Lovely.”
During the same interview, Carlito also shared some of the apple spits that he is not very proud of. The list included some stuff that would not be accepted in this day and age.
“There’s a couple that I’m ashamed, not ashamed of, but there’s a couple of people, especially some females that I remember. Maybe that’s why there’s no vignettes, because I look a lot of them now and nowadays you’re like, Oh, we couldn’t get away with that nowadays. The one I did with Maria, you guys know, right? That one wouldn’t fly today. And for those who don’t know, you’ll look it up somewhere. But, yeah, that wouldn’t fly these days,” Carlito said.
