The company announced that WWE Backlash will take place in San Juan, Puerto Rico on May 6th after the WrestleMania pay-per-view. It will be the first time in so many years that WWE will be hosting a show in Puerto Rico.
Furthermore, the hometown celebrity, Bad Bunny, was also announced as the host of WWE Backlash. Above all, due to the overwhelming response for pre-sale tickets, WWE made the decision to treat its Puerto Rican fans by scheduling the final SmackDown at the same location as Backlash.
However, it seems like that response and recent numbers have indicated massive success for the event. The tickets for WWE Backlash have not been available for many days now, hinting at a sell-out show by WrestleTix. However, the site did list that some tickets for the SmackDown show might still be available.
For Puerto Rican fans, who haven’t been actively engaged by WWE lately, this will be a massive event in their hometown with their boy, Bad Bunny as the host. WWE Backlash will take place at Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot on May 6th, 2023.
