WWE Backlash has come and gone, leaving fans with plenty to talk about. For many, the highlight of the show was the San Juan street fight between Bad Bunny and Damian Priest, which has been hailed as one of the best matches of the night. While the match was certainly impressive on its own, it was made even more so by the assistance of a controversial guest producer.
Brian Kendrick, a former WWE star, made waves in the wrestling community when comments about Holocaust denial resurfaced, leading to his cancellation from certain events. However, it seems that Kendrick is turning things around and trying to make amends for his past mistakes.
According to PW Insider, Kendrick was present at WWE Backlash as a producer, where he was trying out for the role. Alongside Jamie Noble, he assisted in producing the San Juan street fight between Bad Bunny and Damian Priest. This isn’t the first time Kendrick has tried out for a producer role, as he previously had a tryout at the Survivor Series several months ago.

While Kendrick’s past remains controversial, it remains to be seen if WWE will decide to keep him around in this new role. Nevertheless, it’s clear that Kendrick’s contributions helped make the Bad Bunny vs Damian Priest match one of the standout moments of the night. The Puerto Rican fans in attendance made the most out of WWE’s rare appearance on their island, and the response to the match was overwhelmingly positive throughout the night.
