The atmosphere was electric in San Juan, Puerto Rico when Bad Bunny emerged victorious over Damien Priest. The Puerto Rican rapper’s hard work is being highly praised by the fans. Bad Bunny came out swinging at Damien Priest in a San Juan Street Fight. The 29-year-old celebrity set the mood for the match by making his way to the ring to his highly-acclaimed entrance song.
The San Juan Street fight was one-half of the main event at Backlash 2023. While making his entrance, Bunny brought along a cart full of foreign objects. The match also saw several interferences, including the return of former United States Champion Carlito. All things considered; the first main event of Backlash was exciting.
Bad Bunny makes his entrance to the “Chambea” song
Although Bad Bunny made his WWE debut in 2021, he has had a longstanding relationship with WWE. His 2017 song, Chambea, featured the WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair. In Puerto Rico, Chambea means to lock and load or to go to work. Bad Bunny embodies the spirit of his entrance music and went to work on Damien Priest.
The song has garnered over 336M views on YouTube. Bunny experienced genuine jubilation, winning his first-ever singles match in WWE. Interestingly, Bunny defeated Damien Priest, who was also once his tag team partner, in his tag team debut match at WrestleMania 37.
Bad Bunny was rumored to be suspended for wearing a jacket with the WWF print on SmackDown
Ahead of Backlash, on Friday Night SmackDown, Bad Bunny made an appearance and officially joined the LWO team. But Bunny came out with a jacket with the “WWF” logo on it. This led to the rumor that Vince McMahon was upset with Bad Bunny and that he was going to suspend him for 90 days.
Boozer 666, famous for WWE spoilers, squashed the rumor. The Stamford-based company changed from WWF to WWE. Bad Bunny donning a jacket with the old logo only goes to show that the rapper is a genuine Attitude Era fan.
