Santos Escobar Thinks Of Bad Bunny As a WWE Superstar First

Bad Bunny is known to the world as a hitmaker, but Santos Escobar sees him as a WWE Superstar first. Escobar spoke with Under the Ring for a new interview ahead of WWE Backlash and praised Bunny’s work in WWE, noting that the rapper’s commitment to excelling in the ring has earned his respect.

“Everyone says Bad Bunny is this recording artist and multi-Grammy winner,” Escobar said (per Fightful). “He’s none of that to me. He’s a WWE Superstar. He has shown respect, commitment, love, and admiration for what we do. The only way I can repay that is with respect. He earned his way into the WWE ring.”

Escobar continued, “He has the most difficult task of his WWE career when he faces Damian Priest. I’ve faced Damian Priest. It won’t be easy. I’m sure Bad Bunny is going to have everything he needs to defeat Damian Priest. If Judgment Day decides to show up, LWO is going to be there.”

Bad Bunny battles Priest at WWE Backlash on Saturday in a San Juan Street Fight.
