On this week’s edition of Friday Night SmackDown, Bad Bunny officially joined the LWO, helping to drive away The Judgement Day’s attack on the faction.
In a SmackDown Exclusive, the WWE Hall of Famer reflected on his special return to Puerto Rico. Rey would also discuss Bad Bunny aligning with the LWO at the end of Friday Night SmackDown.
“Oh my god, incredible. Every time I’ve been to Puerto Rico, I feel like I’m at home. 2001 was my first time visiting this beautiful island, and the crowd was just incredible. I came back maybe three times after that, and now it’s been almost two and a half years since I’ve returned, but it’s like I never left. The connection we have here is solid. The fact that, not only is it solid, but what we represent in the LWO, every hard-working Latino around the world, they see that. They feel it, and they’re with us 1000%,“
“We feel privileged and honored for Bad Bunny to receive the shirt, put it on gracefully, and represent what we represent, the Latinos. It’s incredible. I don’t think Bad Bunny needed superpowers for tomorrow because he will take Damian Priest down. I know it, I’ve seen him train. He works hard and he’s dedicated. He’s been a fan since he’s a kid. But if that LWO shirt brings him some type of superpower, it would be incredible, man. The representation is to the fullest right now for all the Latinos,”
Rey Mysterio
Rey Mysterio is not currently scheduled for the Backlash card, but will likely make his presence known in both the San Jose Street Fight as well as Rhea Ripley’s SmackDown Women’s Title defense vs Zelina Vega.
