Bad Bunny was originally just supposed to be the host of WWE Backlash in Puerto Rico, but instead the world famous music artist will wrestle in a San Juan Street Fight.
Already familiar to WWE fans for his fearless style in the ring, Bad Bunny will face former ally Damien Priest in Saturday's event, after Priest attacked the musician and put him through a table on an episode of Monday Night Raw last month. Bad Bunny is no stranger to competing in the ring, with the Grammy winner having partnered with Priest in a tag-team match at WrestleMania 37, participated in the 2022 Royal Rumble, and even having won the WWE 24/7 Championship.
This, however, will be his first singles match in WWE.
