Bad Bunny Beats Daman Priest, Carlito And Savio Vega Make Cameo Appearances – Bad Bunny came to WWE Backlash and Puerto Rico, and he conquered, defeating Damian Priest in a street fight.
Bunny broke out a trash can, a kendo stick, and a chair in the bout as he tried to take down the bigger Priest. The fight spilled into the crowd, where Bunny was put through multiple tables off the equipment with a broken arrow.
Back in the ring, Bunny regained control after Priest missed a spin kick and hit the ring post. Judgment Day (Dominik Mysterio & Finn Balor) hit the ring, but Rey Mysterio made the save. The odds were still against Rey & Bunny until Carlito made a surprise appearance.
Carlito wasn’t the only Puerto Rican legend to make a surprise appearance Savio Vega, who appeared earlier in the night to gift Bunny with a kendo stick, returned to ensure Judgment Day got some extra punishment. LWO (Santos Escobar, Joaquin Wilde, & Cruz Del Toro) came out to help rid Judgment Day from ringside.
In the end, Bunny hit a destroyer on Priest for the victory.
This marked Bad Bunny’s first official singles match in WWE at a premium live event. He had previously competed in tag team action and the Royal Rumble. He is also a former WWE 24/7 Champion.
Vega famously led Los Boricuas during the Attitude Era in WWE. He joined WWE as the friend of Razor Ramon (Scott Hall). He was last seen at Undertaker’s retirement ceremony at Survivor Series 2020.
Carlito remains active on the independent scene. This marked his first WWE appearance since 2021 when he made a surprise appearance in the WWE Royal Rumble and then wrestled the following night on WWE Raw.
