Puerto Rican idol and global superstar Bad Bunny defeated Damian Priest in a ‘Street Fight’ in the co-main event of WWE Backlash on Saturday at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum from San Juan, Puerto Rico.
It wasn’t Bad Bunny’s first performance inside a WWE ring, but this one once morest Priest was definitely his most epic.

Both wrestlers put on a show, pulling off multiple impressive moves throughout the match. Every time Priest seemed to be in control, Bunny would respond amazingly. It was a street fight, which meant there were guns, rule breaking and outside help. For Priest, an injured knee left the Judgment Day member compromised for the second half of the match. However, when things started to turn sour, his faction mates Finn Balor and Dominik Mysterio came to help.

When everything looked bleak for Bunny, reinforcements arrived to help, some locals like Savio Vega (TNT) and others from the Latino World Order.
Rey Mysterio came out first to help Bunny, but to even the odds, Carlito made his first WWE appearance in years. However, when it comes to odds and Bunny, who cares? More members of LWO and Savio Vega came out to take Balor and Mysterio completely.
Bunny then pinned a figure four on Priest along with multiple chair slams to Priest’s knee. To finish it off, Bunny performed his Bunny Destroyer to get the win and a huge pop from his hometown fans.

Bunny was scheduled to host the event, but instead had his first professional wrestling singles match. The two-time Grammy Award winner had a tag team match, teaming with Priest once morest The Miz and John Morrison at WrestleMania 37 in 2021. Last year, Bad Bunny performed at the men’s Royal Rumble.
