During the latest WWE Raw after WrestleMania 39 episode, Bad Bunny returned to the weekly programming of WWE. Backstage interviewer Cathy Kelley asked a few questions to the celebrity at ringside who took time to promote next month’s Backlash 2023 premium live event from his homeland of Puerto Rico and as he will be the host of the show.
The 2023 WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio then came out on WWE Raw and thanked the fans alongside Bad Bunny for helping him out in his match against Dominik Mysterio at Wrestlemania. United States Champion Austin Theory interrupted Mysterio on WWE Raw and bragged about defeating the greatest of all time John Cena. Fans tried to get under his skin by chanting, ‘you tapped out’. Theory was least bother by it and he rather taunted them by saying the following,
“Yeah, cheer for him. He’s not here, he’s part-time.”

Theory then claimed that he was going to beat Mysterio’s a** and add him to his collection. This led to a non-title match, which Theory eventually won. Dominik Mysterio attacked his father, Rey after the match. Afterward, he stood in Bad Bunny’s face to receive a punch from him. This led to Damian Priest assisting Dom with a brutal beatdown on Bunny. He ended the attack by choke-slamming Bunny through the announce table.
