dailyloe.com – WWE Backlash takes place on May 9, 2026, at Benchmark International Arena in Tampa. This event follows WrestleMania 42, where Roman Reigns won the World Heavyweight Championship by defeating CM Punk. In the main event, Reigns will defend his title against his cousin, Jacob Fatu.

Fatu, who shares blood with Reigns, asserts that his time to claim the championship has arrived. Earlier on the card, Trick Williams will defend the men’s United States Championship against Sami Zayn, after winning the title at WrestleMania 42. Additionally, Bron Breakker secured a victory over Seth Rollins in a previous match.

The Miz and Kit Wilson faced Danhausen and his mystery partner, known as “mini-Hausen,” but were unable to secure a win. Iyo Sky is scheduled to compete against her former faction member, Asuka, later in the show. The match card presents a diverse lineup of talent and anticipated moments.

As the event unfolds, fans are eager to see how the matches will impact the narrative and championship dynamics following WrestleMania 42. WWE Backlash continues to build excitement as wrestlers vie for titles and personal glory in front of a live audience.
