But, the decision of pairing Bad Bunny with Damian Priest has received unfavorable reaction from the WWE Universe. Reportedly, WWE is planning a tag team match between them at Wrestlemania 37.

Priest recently helped Bad Bunny in winning the WWE 24/7 Championship. The rapper has started training at WWE’s Performance Center in order to prepare for his big debut. In case, the match is finalized for Wrestlemania 37, we might see them on the kick-off show.
