WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select reports that Bad Bunny is someone WWE top brass badly want to appear over WrestleMania 42 weekend in Las Vegas. It's also said that the company actually approached the musician before his performance during the Super Bowl LX halftime show earlier this month.

Nobody's quite sure whether or not WWE will get their man in the end, but "conversations were positive" between both parties and there's still time to make something happen. However, it's unclear whether or not Bunny would be stepping into the ring for another match or simply showing face on the grandest stage this April.

Here's where things get even more interesting.

Logan Paul previously confirmed that he'd pitched a match vs. Bunny to WWE chiefs behind the scenes. Obviously, that celeb vs. celeb showdown would play before major mainstream interest. The social media engagement alone would reach insane levels, because both Paul and Bunny make a ton of impressions online.

Bad Bunny last wrestled back at Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico. There, he defeated Damian Priest in a 'San Juan Street Fight' that was critically lauded after the fact - reviewers noted the red hot atmosphere, as well as just how well Bunny did in his first ever singles bout.

More could be on the way, but that'll depend on Bunny's touring commitments. Getting a deal over the finish line and starting the roll towards Bad Bunny vs. Logan Paul could be big for WWE. It certainly isn't out of the question, and Logan is pushing hard to make it reality.

Over to you, Bunny.
