All the information you need to watch the WWE Backlash live event in St. Louis
On Saturday, John Cena and Randy Orton wrestle for the 22nd and, likely, final time. WWE Backlash hosts the latest chapter in their legendary rivalry with the undisputed WWE championship at stake.
Cena defeated Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41, kickstarting his campaign to take the undisputed WWE title with him into retirement. Randy Orton struck the night after WrestleMania, renewing his two-decade feud with Cena. Orton has home-field advantage, returning to St. Louis on his quest to stop Cena.
Saturday’s pay-per-view is packed with title matches. Most notably, a fatal four-way for the United States championship is set when Jacob Fatu, who earned the title at WrestleMania 41, faces off against Drew McIntyre, L.A. Knight and Damian Priest. Fatu beat Knight for the title and McIntyre and Priest have continued their blood feud beyond WrestleMania as well.
Another title match sees new intercontinental champion Dominik Mysterio look to defend his title against Penta. The two stars have not come face to face in the build up to this match, but Penta has had continued issues with Mysterio’s allies in Judgement Day. Mysterio will likely have Finn Balor, who he pinned in a fatal four-way at WrestleMania to win the title, in his corner, but tensions within the group continue to bubble up.
