Latin music star Bad Bunny impressed the professional wrestling world when he battled Damian Priest in a San Juan street fight at WWE Backlash in 2023 and came out to a raucous crowd in Puerto Rico.
It wasn’t Bad Bunny’s first time in a WWE ring (he made several appearances for the company in 2021) and he hopes it won’t be the last.

The music star told Rolling Stone that he wants to compete in the ring again.
“I want to do it one more time,” he told the magazine in an interview published Monday. “I want to put my life at risk in the ring. I felt like I didn’t risk enough in the ring, and I want to do it. I want to scare my mother. When? I don’t know.
“We stay in touch with the people at WWE, we’re always paying attention to what’s going on. But when, I don’t know. I hope there comes a time when I can really prepare, like I did the last few times.” And I would love to take more time to prepare physically.

“But man, just like in music, I do this to get better and do something different. Sometimes I say, ‘I’m going to quit everything and do wrestling full time.’ I feel like in wrestling I go sporadically like a celebrity. I’m going to go full time and be a badass. That’s what I would love. I was always more of a fan of villains than good guys.”
Bad Bunny’s entrance to the 2023 match was one of the most celebrated moments of that year.

It’s unclear where he would fit into upcoming storylines, but with WrestleMania season upon wrestling fans, anything could really happen.
