Charlotte Flair On Bad Bunny Working With WWE: 'He Wants To Be Good At What We Do'

Bad Bunny's recent appearances on WWE television have continued to impress viewers, critics, and even the roster itself. And ahead of his headlining match against Damian Priest at WWE Backlash, one of the promotion's top stars is speaking out about how blown away they've been by the rapper-turned-wrestler's in-ring abilities and dedication to training. Speaking with Boardroom, 14-time world champion Charlotte Flair shared her thoughts about Bunny, saying he's dedicated and "wants to be good at what we do."

"You can tell he respects the business, he loves the business," Flair said. "He works really hard and I don't think he'd be where he is in his industry if he didn't have the ability to adapt. Our business is not easy, and you could tell how much he loves it and wants to be [here]. He wants to be good at what we do. It's very admirable." Bunny made his memorable in-ring debut alongside Priest at WrestleMania 37 two years ago. The pair won their match against The Miz and John Morrison, but in recent weeks their relationship has soured, leading to Bunny challenging Priest to a "San Juan Street Fight" at this weekend's premium live event.

Given how well he's performed in the past for WWE, it's easy to expect Saturday night's match with Priest to be another feather in Bunny's pro wrestling cap. "It's just unbelievable how much he's thrown himself into the sport and wants to be good at it," Flair said. "You don't see that many people who come from different industries putting that much time into it, and he does."
