Though Bad Bunny made a crowd-popping WWE return at Royal Rumble 2022 this past weekend, don't put money on the rapper being able to appear at WrestleMania 38.

'Mania is due to take place in Arlington, Texas on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 April this year. Unfortunately, this clashes with a couple of dates on Bunny's upcoming tour schedule. He is due to perform in Miami, Florida on both of those evenings.

As it takes around three hours to fly from Miami to the Dallas-Forth Worth region, it is highly unlikely that Bunny would be able to make both shows after factoring additional time in.

Bunny worked his first ever wrestling match last April, teaming with Damian Priest to face The Miz and John Morrison at WrestleMania 37. He exceeded expectations, even after training with Drew Gulak in the build-up to the event, hitting a Canadian Destroyer and other big moves in a well-received performance, though he didn't compete again until showing up this year's men's Rumble.

Entering the Rumble at number 27, Bad Bunny eliminated Dolph Ziggler and Sheamus before eating a Brock Lesnar F5 and eventually being thrown out.
