Latin music star Bad Bunny impressed the world of professional wrestling when he faced Damian Priest in a street fight in San Juan at WWE Backlash in 2023 and performed in front of a raucous crowd in Puerto Rico.
This wasn’t Bad Bunny’s first time in a WWE ring – he’s 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 risk my life in the ring. I felt like I didn’t take enough risks in the ring, and I want to do that. I want to scare my mom. When? I don’t know.
“We stay in touch with the WWE people, we’re always paying attention to what’s going on. But when, I don’t know. I hope there will be a time where I can really prepare, like I do. I did the last few times. And I would like to take more time to prepare myself 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’m going to go sporadically as a celebrity, I’m going to go full time and be a heel, that’s what I would love to do. I’ve always been more of a fan of the. bad guys than good guys.
Bad Bunny’s entrance into the 2023 game was one of the most celebrated moments of this year.

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