WWE has announced that Bad Bunny will be making a special appearance on the May 5th edition of SmackDown.
The episode will be coming live from the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot in Puerto Rico, just 24 hours before Backlash is held at the same venue.
The Hip Hop star will also host a press conference for the event on March 5th.
It has also been announced that Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson will be back in action when they take on the Viking Raiders. It will be the first time that the O.C. members have teamed together on the main roster since January when they took part in Tag Team Turmoil on Raw.
The O.C. reunited in full on the April 28th episode of SmackDown, after being drafted to the blue brand.
Shinsuke Nakamura recently made his own return to action but was quickly targeted by Karrion Kross. The two men will look to settle their differences on March 5th.
