Damian Priest Says No Celebrity Touches Bad Bunny—‘He Set a New Standard’

Damian Priest believes Bad Bunny is in a league of his own, stating that no other celebrity comes close to what he’s accomplished inside a WWE ring.

Speaking on MLB Central, The Punisher had high praise for Bad Bunny. He noted that while many celebrities come to WWE to promote their movies or music, Bad Bunny was different—he came with a mission to prove that even stars from outside the wrestling world can truly compete in the ring.

To me, when it comes to celebrities, nobody touches him. He set a new standard. If anything, for celebrities to come in and want to be a part of our world, you gotta look at what Bad Bunny was willing to do — and willing to take.

Priest admitted he was genuinely surprised to see someone as successful as Bad Bunny step into a Street Fight, especially considering all he’s already accomplished in the entertainment industry. He added that it truly showed just how passionate the Grammy-nominated icon is about pro wrestling—something that was incredible for him to witness.

Therefore, the former World Heavyweight Champion believes Bad Bunny has set an incredibly high bar for any celebrity looking to step into the world of professional wrestling. He sees Bunny as a benchmark—an example future celebrities will be measured against when they enter the WWE ring.

Bad Bunny is one of the biggest icons in pop culture, but within the WWE Universe, he’ll be remembered for his unforgettable Street Fight against Damian Priest at Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico. Fans now eagerly await the next time the global superstar steps back into a WWE ring.
