Bad Bunny put on a show at WWE Backlash, utilizing his wrestling skills and help from LWO — and Carlito — to defeat Damian Priest.
In an instant classic for matches featuring celebrities, Bad Bunny continued to show off his in-ring talent. The “San Juan Street Fight” lived up to its name, with Priest and Bunny using any and all weapons at their disposal throughout the match.
Late in the match, The Judgment Day attempted to come out and help Priest, causing Rey Mysterio to come out as well. After Bunny and Mysterio got overwhelmed, however, the crowd was shocked to see Carlito come running out, who was soon followed by the rest of LWO and Savio Vega, to help Bunny overcome Judgment Day and walk out with a win following a Bunny Destroyer.
