Pretty cool news my fellow Boricuas have always brought that energy for Wrestling and will continue to do so once again with Backlash.

Inb4 Damian Priest and Bad Bunny team up again

 

[Lethal]

Oh fuck no, this means a Zelina pity title match so we can witness her botch up once again. Yay.

Wouldn't mind a Bad Bunny match, he's most excellent

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Bad Bunny is really good but no belts for Zelina

 

[Rosie]

Time for that Savio Vega pop

 

[Sky]

If we don't at least get a cameo from (hopefully still TNA World Champ by then) Mike Santana then WWE creative is even more brainless than I thought

 

[camdudetenger9]

imagine if savio vegas iwa puerto pico or carlitos wwc did crossovers with wwe for backlash

 

[Barry Poppins]

Lol ew, WWC.

 

[R-Troop]

I love it.

PR was a white hot crowd for Backlash a few years ago (terrible match order besides the point).

Absolutely run it back. Don't know if Bad Bunny will wrestle as I believe he's touring? But if he's available to be there you gotta try to get him involved.

 

[Buffy]

I don't mind it honestly. Backlash PPV's from WWE has all been fun.

Well this isn’t happening now, Hunter has announced the show will be in Tampa.
