In 1999, Colón began competing in the World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico as a face under the name "Carly".
During his time with WWC, Carly feuded with Ray Gonzalez (Ramón Gonzalez). The two competed in several matches involving the
WWC Universal Heavyweight Championship , with both of them defeating their adversary in title bouts on separate occasions.
When Colón signed a developmental contract with World Wrestling Entertainment, he was assigned a heel character in Ohio
Valley Wrestling (OVW). During this period, Colón was also booked as a heel for WWC and was involved in an angle where he

This angle culminated in the company's anniversary event, Anniversario 2004 , where Carly competed in a match against
