– NBC has confirmed that Grammy Award-winning artist, actor, and WWE crossover star Bad Bunny will return to host Saturday Night Live on October 8. The episode will also feature Doja Cat as the musical guest.
This marks Bunny’s second time hosting the long-running late-night series. He previously pulled double duty on the October 21, 2023 episode, serving as both host and musical guest. He has also made two other prior appearances strictly in the musical guest role.
Outside of his music and acting career, Bad Bunny has remained tied to WWE fans. His last appearance for the company came in May 2023, when he wrestled Damian Priest in a headline match at the Backlash premium live event in Puerto Rico.
