Grammy Award winner could be brought to WWE soon, says wrestling veteran Hugo Savinovich (Exclusive)
WWE roster is undeniably one of the best lineups in any promotion in the pro wrestling industry. However, a particular celebrity could be the right addition to the current wrestling scene, according to veteran Hugo Savinovich.
The celebrity being talked about is none other than Bad Bunny. The Puerto Rican artist has already had much exposure to the wrestling world. At the 2023 Backlash Premium Live Event, he went up against Damian Priest in a Street Fight stipulation match and ended up winning against the veteran star.
On Sportskeeda's UnSKripted, Hugo Savinovich explained that the addition of Bad Bunny to the active scene could be the right step right now, considering how the company is in a great position at the start of 2025. He stated:
"Anytime you want, you could bring... Bad Bunny. You could bring him into the picture. Don't forget we could bring him in, then you have a megastar of the music world, that they almost have perfect matches in WWE. He is there, and he is hot. So you could use him for Saturday Night's Main Event, or you could enter him on Netflix for that angle, too. They have the money." [3:15 onwards]

Another WWE veteran previously said Bad Bunny's presence needs to be used properly
While Bad Bunny certainly brings his fanbase to the pro wrestling bubble, back in 2021, Vince Russo said that the company wasn't using the Grammy Award winner's work properly.
Speaking on an episode of Legion of RAW, Russo stated:
“Bro, I get all that [Bad Bunny's star power]. I understand marketing. I understand, I get it all, but you’ve gotta be driving these people to a good show. You’ve gotta be driving them to [Hulk] Hogan and The Rock and The Undertaker. You’re gonna drive them to an hour-long gauntlet match and people are gonna sit there and watch this? That’s the thing, bro. Great, bro. This guy has 97 billion downloads? Tremendous! You can’t drive people to this show!”
It remains to be seen what WWE plans to do next in the coming months.
