That Bad Bunny Backlash match may have been the most important in Damian Priest's career, because he did business by putting Bunny over and making him look like a million bucks in the process, impressed officials backstage that much that he won Money in the Bank soon after, cashed in at WrestleMania, and became a legit main event star and over babyface.
I'm glad they made the match IN Puerto Rico since lets face it if backlash 2023 wasn't a success we won't have elimination chamber in australia, backlash in france, bash in berlin and the many more PLEs will get in the future
I agree. I think that Puerto Rican crowd really showed just how amazing these non US fans are and how excited they are to see a major show live. And each one of those countries you mentioned had such a different feeling to them. Live fans can make or break a show for tv viewers and each country delivered an amazing experience for live views and tv viewers. But PR definitely set the tone.
I was there that night and grown men had tears coming down when Savio came on, people just don’t understand how important Tio Savio is to us. My apple watch was going crazy marking over 100 on the sound scale.
that crowd was absolutely electric. i hope they get a wrestlemania or summerslam there at some point. and shout out to Priest for stepping up for that match and also shout out to Bad Bunny. that dude clearly respects the game and puts in the work. best celebrity wrestler i’ve seen so far.
I still go back to watch the entrance Bad Bunny had...cus omg watching it live was mind blowing and it doesnt drop quality no matter how many times you rewatch it
If WWE gets to have the rights for the theme of Savio Vega that he used in IWA that was the legendary theme, “Engel” by Rammstein, then I tell you that the Choliseo along with the ring would have trembled more than ever!
@@RainSennin_ismyAlt Puerto Rico IS an unincorporated territory of the US. It is NOT however one of the 50 states within the US. That was his question. It's a country that is a territory of the US.
For me Berlin Was better as France. France was loud and wild but they were mostly chanting their two count and didnt went into the Matches. Berlin was more into it and wild too. Puerto Rico is in my opinion the Best of them all.
I think Dominik would be a great guest on the show due to his IMMENSELY growing character and popularity over just the last 3 years. He went from “I’m his son… the end.” To “Everybody knows my name, and NO ONE can stand to say it!!!” Which is exactly what you want in a heel. Look at Roman and Solo. Solo was a heel, but now that he’s the MAIN Smackdown heel, and Roman is becoming a leader to take back his family, Roman is seen as a savior to Smackdown fans, and Solo is unable to be seen without massive boos from the crowd. Dominik or Solo would be great guests for this show! (If one or both of them have already been on here… please send me a link to one of their videos!!!)

that was legitimately one of the best matches I’ve ever seen

@@stonebone316Puerto Ricans are u.s fans
That is US territory hence they're Americans

That was the best crowd imagine if it was in a bigger Stadium😮
they set the tone for the rest of the international PLEs I’m sorry still top 2/3 for me and all the drone shots they were doing

I was there and I can tell you that if that theme song came on the building would’ve fallen down.
Backlash in Puerto Rico set the standard for PLEs in different countries
Facts I'll never forget how loud the crowd was I've never seen anything like that in my life watching WWE
isn't puerto rico technically a United States territory
@@balamohammed5947 bro what? Puerto Rico is a country, not a US state.
You should research before typing in random comments,Puerto Rico in fact is a U.S. territory.@@RainSennin_ismyAlt

Bad bunny best entrance EVER!
It should have been the main event.
I thought it WAS the main event.
@@hideharu-xiii8852this is going to be one of those Mandela Effect moments lol
Y'all forget that even as popular Bad Bunny is, the people upstairs LOVE Roman.
@@Figs3Roman was on that card? Damn it really is a Mandela effect cause I forgot about that lmaoo
1. France
2. Puerto Rico
We need to keep going again and again
For me Berlin Was better as France.
France was loud and wild but they were mostly chanting their two count and didnt went into the Matches.
Berlin was more into it and wild too.
Puerto Rico is in my opinion the Best of them all.
@@marvin1994hell nah, what show did you watch; France went crazy.
Damian is the man for how he performed, a great collab with Bad Bunny! 🇺🇸🇵🇷
In the last two years I got back into the WWE, PR Backlash is the best PLE I’ve experienced

Backlash 2023 crowd one of the best crowd in a PLE/PPV in the last 10 years.
Awesome match and priest is amazing at what he does
Bad bunny looks like tony kahn 😂😂
It was perfect for what it was. I really dislike the Canadian Destroyer as finisher for Bunny but besides that it was as perfect as it was.
man i havent seen wwe since like 2010 and i saw this match and it was great
Bad Bunny is still the best celebraty that has wrestled in WWE. Hope he comes back soon.
"Cambea, jala" 🇵🇷 was on fire that night. Shout out to Zelina Vega aswell
La novela de de wwe bad buny y damian pris
That was fun match to
Chris should interview Bad Bunny.
Damien marry me 😎
His voice sounds so evil for some reason
CLASSIC.😂.
I like his shirt
🇵🇷
I totally ship DP and Bad Bunny ;)
hey it the bisexual undertaker
Wrestlers crying about representation etc. They really are cringe and gay compared with their predecessors.
