In professional wrestling, commentators play a crucial role in keeping the audience engaged and entertained. At the WWE Backlash premium live event, commentator Michael Cole did just that with a comment that left his broadcast partner Corey Graves speechless. Following the highly anticipated ‘San Juan Street Fight’ between Bad Bunny and Damian Priest, Corey Graves challenged Michael Cole to name a Bad Bunny song. Cole’s response was unexpected, as he replied, “My autobiography! It’s translated to ‘I twerk alone’.” The look of shock and horror on Graves’ face was evident as he remained silent, while Cole continued to describe a real Bad Bunny song, “Yo Perreo Sola”, which roughly translates to “I twerk alone”.
The song, released in 2020, gained widespread attention for its powerful message of sexual diversity, women’s rights, and the LGBTQ community. Bad Bunny, who co-directed the music video, appeared in full drag and made a public service announcement at the end of the video, echoing the song’s lyrics. The message was powerful and resonated with many people who have experienced harassment and unwanted attention while out dancing. Cole’s comment, although unexpected, highlighted the great message behind Bad Bunny’s song, bringing awareness to important social issues.
