It’s tough to tell, though it seems a little unlikely that we’d only have five matches on a non-Royal Rumble premium live event. As it stands, here are the five matches we know will take place in St. Louis at Backlash on Saturday: WWE Backlash 2025 Confirmed Matches Undisputed WWE Championship Match John Cena (c) vs. Randy Orton WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship Match Lyra Valkyria (c) vs. Becky Lynch WWE United States Championship – Fatal Four-Way Match Jacob Fatu (c) vs. LA Knight vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Damian Priest WWE Intercontinental Championship Match Dominik Mysterio (c) vs. Penta Singles Match Gunther vs. Pat McAfee As of now, the following Superstars are without a match at Backlash: Roman Reigns CM Punk Seth Rollins Cody Rhodes Bron Breakker WWE Tag Team Champions: The Street Profits WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions: Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez World Tag Team Champions: The New Day Bianca Belair Naomi Jade Cargill Men’s World Heavyweight Champion: Jey Uso WWE Women’s World Champion: Tiffany Stratton Women’s World Champion: Iyo Sky Women’s U.S. Champion: Zelina Vega Nia Jax The Motor City Machine Guns Aleister Black Karrion Kross Chelsea Green Logan Paul That’s a lot of missing star power. And as of now, only four of the promotion’s 13 recognized titles will be on the line. If we’re looking for potential additions to the card, you might point to something developing between Jey Uso and Logan Paul. The latter slugged the reigning World Heavyweight Champion after Raw went off the air on Monday. KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI – APRIL 28: Jey Uso with a kick to Logan Paul during Monday Night RAW at ...

I predict Paul will win Money in the Bank and succeed with one of the more memorable cash-ins in WWE history later this year. There’s also the possibility that a WWE Women’s World Championship match happens between Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax. Immediately after WrestleMania 41, it was made clear Jax wasn’t done with Stratton. She attacked her to interfere with an impromptu match against Cargill, thereby rekindling their feud. There aren’t a ton of feuds for Stratton to have at the moment, but one with Jax makes the most sense, and they could potentially entertain at Backlash. One of the less-entertaining time-filling feuds on WWE programming is the one between Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky against Giulia and Roxanne Perez. All four women are outstanding performers, but I’d much rather watch them in a Fatal Four-Way than in this battle of makeshift tag teams.

Be on the lookout for more updates on Backlash as we move toward the PLE, and the last bit of news concerning the WWE weekend following SmackDown from the Nutter Center in Dayton, Ohio. It will also be interesting to see if the promotion’s recent cuts have an impact on the show and the upcoming week of WWE programming. Will we see new factions form? Will we find out who—or if—Rollins, Breakker, and Paul Heyman will add a new member to their faction? Perhaps that will have to wait until the Raw after Backlash. In any case, it should be an interesting next few weeks in the WWE as we may also see a brand draft before Saturday Night’s Main Event on May 24. Stay tuned.
