Bad Bunny Comments on Making Potential Return to WWE in Future

Rolling Stone held a recent interview with musician Bad Bunny. One of the topics discussed included Bad Bunny’s thoughts about his interest in making a potential return appearance in WWE in the future.

“I want to do it one more time. I want to put my life at risk in the ring. I felt like I didn’t risk it enough in the ring, and I want to do it. I want to scare my mother. When? I don’t know. We stay in contact with the people at WWE, we’re always paying attention to what’s going on. But when, I don’t know. I hope there’s a time where I can really get ready, like I did the last few times. And I’d love to take more time to get ready physically.

But man, just like in music, I do this to get better and to do something different. Sometimes, I say, “I’m going to quit everything and just do wrestling full time.” I feel like in wrestling, I just go sporadically as a celebrity. I’m going to go full time and be a heel. That’s what I’d love. [Laughs.] I was always a fan of the villains more than the good guys.”

Bad Bunny also stated that WWE will be holding this year’s Backlash event in Mexico.

Bad Bunny last appeared in WWE at their Backlash 2023 event in May of 2023 in Puerto Rico.
