With plentiful speculation that rapper Bad Bunny could not only make further WWE appearances, but that he could actually wrestle for Vince McMahon’s sports entertainment behemoth, now comes an update on Bunny’s potential in-ring career.

As per Wrestling Observer Radio, the current plan is indeed for Bad Bunny to team with Damian Priest to take on the Miz and John Morrison at WrestleMania 37. Previously, there had been rumblings that the rapper may end up teaming with Booker T – with Bad Bunny performing his Booker T single at last month’s Royal Rumble PPV – but it is reportedly the Archer of Infamy who will instead get the nod here.

Bad Bunny has already been training at the WWE Performance Center, and the company is clearly eager to maximise on the Grammy Award winner’s huge popularity; a popularity that has seen him become the top WWE merchandise seller of 2021 so far.

It’s not known right now just when Bad Bunny will be back on WWE TV, but expect it to be sooner rather than later as WWE embarks on its annual Road to WrestleMania.

Emanating from Raymond James Stadium, WrestleMania 37 will take place on 10 and 11 April.
