WWE Backlash 2022

The WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022 event featured four WrestleMania rematches including one title match and a six-man tag team main event with five ...

Moss charged, Corbin with a knee and Moss caught Corbin with a fallaway slam for two. Lashley wanted a suplex, Omos with a punch and Omos went off the ropes leading to Lashley hitting a spinebuster. Corbin got a kick to the chest to stun Moss a bit and then Corbin hit a massive Chokeslam. Moss was out on the floor, so Corbin kneed him in the back to send Moss into the ring post. Flair got cocky at the end while standing over a chair, so Rousey used it to her advantage leading to the armbar with the chair and then the final twist leading to Flair losing. Edge applied an armbar on the mat, Styles drove Edge to the corner and then Edge sent Styles into the turnbuckle. Rollins with a back elbow to the head, Cody slipped out of a Pedigree tease and Rollins got a kick leading to a superkick to Cody’s head for a two count. Rollins with a slap to the back of the head, so Cody came back with a punch along with more punches and Rollins left the ring. Cody sent Rollins back into the ring, Cody went up top and went for a moonsault that missed because Rollins moved out of the way. Back in the ring, Lashley with a running kick to the leg followed by a flatliner sending Omos into the mat. Rollins tried to cheat to win, Cody rolled out of that and Cody was able to cheat to win, so it was payback for Cody in a way that makes sense because he was doing what Rollins tried to do. Cody with a punch to the head, then he went for a move off the ropes, but Rollins was there to shove Cody over the top to the floor. Rollins with a roaring elbow, then an elbow to the back of the head and a Falcon Arrow by Rollins for two.

The final stretch of the match was as packed with action as it could be, culminating with Roman spearing Riddle in half for the victory. Anyway, as for this match, And I find it kind of funny, and I find it kind of sad. There's been a lot of high-octane action tonight, and with six men in the match you would normally expect that here. The match was nothing to write home about and probably went on a few minutes too long. This match is an oddity because, in theory, Madcap Moss is supposed to be the lovable babyface, but that's just not the case. It was a solid match, and an "I Quit" match that didn't get too over-the-top. So I've been enjoying this match for what it is, and when Charlotte put the mic up to Ronda and Ronda said, "Never b****," I lost my mind. So the big story here is that AJ Smiles' arm is hurt and that comes into play a lot--especially when Smile is trying to put Edge into a variety of submissions. As for the match itself, it's two of the best in the industry doing their thing. It was a complete surprise to see Cody get the win here, as Seth winning made more sense--to get a rubber match at the next PPV. Regardless, I don't see anything topping this match tonight. Mat: Wrestlemania did something very important: it put Chris and I in the same room for the first time in a little more than two years. If you want to watch a replay of Wrestlemania Backlash live, you'll need the streaming service Peacock. While it does have a free tier, you will not be able to watch the WWE event through that.

SmackDown Women's Championship -- Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Ronda Rousey ("I Quit" Match): After Flair scored a cheap win over Rousey at WrestleMania, a rematch ...

WWE later confirmed the six-man tag team match, but there was no mention of the tag team titles, casting doubts on the unification match. Rousey upped the stakes of the rematch on SmackDown, when she challenged Flair to an "I Quit" match. Sonya Deville: Deville abused her power as a WWE official to name herself Belair's next title challenger. The card seems as though it will focus on a mix of fresh matchups and rematches of bouts from WrestleMania. That includes a rematch between Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair for Flair's SmackDown women's championship. That weekend saw Moss win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal while Corbin lost to Drew McIntyre. Jealousy overcame Corbin and he set his sights on his friend, setting up a one-on-one showdown between the former tag partners. Ronda Rousey ("I Quit" Match): After Flair scored a cheap win over Rousey at WrestleMania, a rematch was a certainty.

What does that mean for Reigns going forward? It appeared that WWE was setting up a future WWE Universal Championship match between Reigns and McIntyre, which ...

Rollins attempted a roll up, pulling on Rhodes tights, but Rhodes reversed the roll up into one of this own and, with a fistful of Rollins tights, got the three count. Styles protested to the ref, saying Priest was barred from ringside, but Priest said he was on the ramp and not the ringside. For the first half of the match, Rollins was one step ahead of Rhodes. It's not just that Rollins got heat on Rhodes, but that Rollins had a counter for all of Rhode's attempted offense. Edge then got Styles in the crossface and Styles passed out. The commentators did a good job at explaining that Rollins had clearly watched tape on Rhodes and had prepared for his moves. On the inside, she slammed Rousey's face into the chair with a Natural Selection. Flair put Rousey in a Figure Eight, but Rousey broke it up by grabbing the chair and hitting Flair in the hip with it. The story going into this match is that AJ has a damaged shoulder following an attack from Edge and Priest on Raw a couple weeks back. Back at ringside, Flair went to the top rope and began to go for a Moonsault outside. Flair set up a chair in the middle of the ring and grabs the mic. He got a hot tag into the match, planting Jimmy Uso with the middle rope DDT and setting him up for an RKO. Jey Uso tried to break it up, but Orton threw him out. Reigns would get his revenge on Orton. Later Orton was battling with Jey Uso on the outside, setting up to slam him on the announcer's table. The first part saw The Bloodline work over Riddle. It set a slow pace, but that picked up once Reigns and McIntyre got in the ring.

WrestleMania Backlash also featured an “I Quit” Match for the SmackDown Women's Championship between Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair. Rousey won the match with ...

Roman Reigns picked up the win over Riddle in the finish, which is fitting because this match simultaneously built up to Reigns vs. McIntyre and Reigns vs. Despite doing a good job of building up to Roman Reigns vs. Corey Graves described it as “beating Superman to the punch.” Randy Orton vs. Randy Orton at Allegiant Stadium for Money in the Bank.

While it shared a name with The Most Stupendous Two-Night Event in WrestleMania History, WrestleMania Backlash did not feel as special as last month's show.

Intercontinental champion Ricochet has not been either of the last two PPVs. With just six matches on this card, it was up to a small section of the WWE roster to deliver. She built a story with Sonya Deville that played out on Raw and missed this PPV entirely. With more story behind the action, they outshined their WrestleMania clash and set the stage for a third contest soon. However, they are not defending the titles until Friday's SmackDown. This is thanks to presentation and booking.

Welcome to Bleacher Report's coverage and recap of WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022. WWE had originally booked a tag title unification match between The Usos ...

- Jey took out Orton on the apron with a superkick at one point, and the way The Viper sold it was hilarious. Everybody was fighting in and around the ring. Then he tagged in Jey and told the crowd he was the shot-caller and would do things his way. Even without any titles on the line, this still felt like a bout that was worthy of closing the event. The Viper came in off the hot tag and began to run through everyone. - The sunset flip Moss used to win was about as textbook as it gets. The crowd was hot and chanting before they even made contact. The All Mighty tried to go after MVP, but Omos put a stop to it by pulling him back in the ring by his head. - The camera angle when Rollins slapped Rhodes in the back of the head before The American Nightmare turned around and decked him was perfect. - The kick Corbin hit to the leg almost looked like a low blow at first. Omos was unable to beat him back until MVP got on the apron to provide a distraction. He had a chip on his shoulder from his 'Mania loss, so it made perfect sense for him to be the aggressor.

WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022 preview: UK start time, matches and live stream with The Bloodline vs. RK-Bro and Drew McIntyre and more.

- Drew McIntyre and RK-Bro (Randy Orton and Riddle) vs. WrestleMania Backlash is a hard night to predict because on the surface the card itself – with just one championship match and four rematches from last month’s WrestleMania weekend – gives the impression of a filler night. Their recent untelevised match at The O2 in London was an improvement on their strong WrestleMania showing (which was only let down by a disinterested crowd), so there should be high hopes for tonight. WWE presents WrestleMania Backlash tonight (May 8) with all the action on the main card kicking off at 1am for fans in the UK. For fans in the UK, you can tune into the main WrestleMania Backlash show by either streaming live or watching on demand via the WWE Network – or order the event via BT Sport Box Office. Given the event’s theme following the Showcase of the Immortals, the card is fairly stacked with some rematches from Mania itself – including a huge title match with a brutal stipulation, and plenty of grudge matches.

WWE is back for its first post-Wrestlemania PPV on Sunday with backlash at the Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, RI. Here are the final results from the ...

Superplexes, kickouts of both the Crossroads and the Pedigree, a bunch of high-flying action — these two just put on incredible matches. Omos followed that up with a tree slam to get the 1-2-3. Edge capitalized with a crossface hold that put Styles out cold. Finn Balor then raced out to take out Priest. There are six matches on the card, five of which are rematches from WrestleMania. The show will open with the second encounter between Cody Rhodes and Seth “Freakin’” Rollins. Other rematches include AJ Styles versus Edge; Bobby Lashley versus Omos; and Charlotte Flair taking on Ronda Rousey for the Smackdown Women’s Championship. But this time, those two will battle in an “I Quit” match. And they will be settled tonight on WrestleMania Backlash.

The six-man tag team match to close the show blew the roof off in Providence, RI.

Riddle dove onto Reigns and Jimmy. Riddle and Jey exchanged moves in the ring. Reigns cheap-shotted Riddle and antagonized Orton, setting up McIntyre to land the Claymore Kick. The audience roared for Orton, who tagged in and punished The Usos with his signature powerslams. Riddle dove onto Reigns and Jimmy. Riddle and Jey exchanged moves in the ring. Moss took the lead with an explosive spear in the corner and then chucked Corbin with a fallaway slam. Riddle and Jey tagged into the match and Riddle exploded to life. Flair then repeatedly struck Rousey and planted the challenger with a Natural Selection against the chair in the ring. Styles dodged a spear and Edge went into the exposed buckle. Rhodes entered the ring, sprung off the ropes and nailed Rollins with the Cody Cutter. Rhodes ducked the pedigree, Rollins countered and planted him with a superkick. After a spear into the corner by Lashley, "The Almighty" tied up Omos' arms in the ropes and pummeled him with unprotected strikes. Lashley took off for the match-ending spear but Omos dodged it and MVP struck Lashley with his cane while the referee was distracted. Rollins rolled up Rhodes with the tights; however, Rhodes rolled through and grabbed the tights for a three-count. Rhodes popping Rollins in the throat, faceplanting him off an extended suplex spot and then hitting a Disaster Kick. Rhodes attempted the Disaster Kick a second time and was firmly shoved over the ropes and to the outside.

Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey was a rare limp spot at Mania, but the "I Quit" stipulation made this once must-watch, while MVP's defection meant Omos vs Bobby Lashley had an interesting wrinkle.

What many considered a simple rehash of WrestleMania matches and uninteresting rivalries instead resulted in the best WWE pay-per-view of 2022 to date, ...

On top of it all, we got a brilliant main event featuring six of the best WWE has to offer. McIntyre was spared a loss as Reigns pinned The Original Bro following a Spear from out of nowhere. Rousey entered the industry via a five-star Match of the Year with Kurt Angle vs. In doing so, he ensured the feud with his perceived top contender has legs beyond Sunday's PPV. She fits the group's dark, brooding aesthetic and has the same edge of danger her teammates in Judgment Day possess. Ripley can be for Judgment Day what previous factions did not have: a presence in the women's division. He was fresh off a lengthy run with Impact Wrestling, where he improved his in-ring skills but had still not developed into the wrestler he needed to be to achieve consistent excellence in a main event role. Too often, she has seemed uncertain since her return at the Royal Rumble in January. Today, The Bloodline has a stranglehold on SmackDown and its titles. Wrestling history is brimming with great factions and stables that have dominated different divisions. Two things needed to happen in the main event of WrestleMania Backlash: The six men involved needed a great match to dampen any criticisms of what was, effectively, a house-show headliner, and WWE Creative had to protect the Roman Reigns-Drew McIntyre match that central to its storytelling in the future. The best match of WrestleMania 38 saw Cody Rhodes make a triumphant return to WWE and defeat Seth Rollins in a genuine Match of the Year candidate.

WWE presents WrestleMania rematches better than they were the first time.

The two went back and forth, Seth went for a pin attempt with all of Cody’s tights in his hands, only for Cody to reverse that with his own pin attempt. Omos got the W in a very meh match. The story here was very simple: Seth proved a much harder task for Cody now that the former was properly prepped. Charlotte was hoisted on her own petard since she not only brought the chair into the match, but planned to break Ronda’s arm in a similar fashion and gave the most sinister Happy Mother’s Day wish this side of the movie Mothers’s Day. Ronda is your new SmackDown Women’s champ. There were enough distractions and shenanigans to make the L acceptable in the eyes of fans, plus the story is nowhere done yet. It was my favorite moment of the match AJ mustered his remaining strength to hang Edge over the top rope, then putting him in the position for the Styles Clash. Using the ropes as leverage and do the heavy lifting was ingenious. Finn Balor rushed to ringside and brawled with Priest. Full disclosure, I figured Finn was out for the swerve. The man is extra over in every arena, and that was no different in Rhode Island. He was easily the biggest favorite in this match, and the RKO he hit on Roman when the match broke down was not only out of nowhere, but a thing of beauty. But the match leading to her reveal was worthy of Edge and AJ Styles. So, let’s talk about that and then get back to Rhea. Shall we? AJ did his best to get Edge into a Styles Clash but it was obvious he just didn’t have the strength for it. While I wasn’t excited about the prospect of a match before, I am intrigued now. “Kick in the Door” was the Notorious B.I.G.’s warning to emcees everywhere.

On tap for tonight's show is Seth Rollins vs. Cody Rhodes, Bobby Lashley vs. Omos, AJ Styles vs. Edge, Ronda Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair in an I Quit match for ...

Uso goes to the top-rope after that but Riddle recovers and leaps to the top in a single jump, connecting with a RKO out of nowhere. He turns right around to a Spear from Reigns, who follows up with the cover and the pin fall victory. They end up landing hard on the ground below and each are down for a bit before re-engaging in this one while the fans selfishly chant "We want tables!" He starts to knock the big man backwards and as he nearly knocks him out of the ring, he opts instead to tie up the big arms of the giant and unloading on him with a free range of punches. Riddle fires up and goes into Viper mode, pounding the mat as he waits for Uso to get up. Rousey ends up snatching an armbar through the ring ropes, draping down as Charlotte is half-way to the top and stuck upside down hanging from the turnbuckles. We see Lashley catch him and he goes out to the floor to make him pay. Edge takes over from there, and ends up catching Styles on the mat with a crossface attempt. We go to a commercial break and when we return, the commentary trio of Smith, Graves and Saxton talk about tonight's main event. On that note, we head down to the ring and get ready for our opening contest of the evening. This includes the package for the main event and then analysis on The Bloodline vs. The pre-show panelists wrap things up and the Kickoff Show comes to an end.

WWE WrestleMania Backlash is in the books! Which match was the best on the card, and which bout was skippable?

The final flurry of the match had tons going on that had audiences hooked, and it created chaos in the best way possible. It proved to be a perfect main event, and it had the live crowd going crazy for everything that happened. It wasn't the type of match that fans will be desperate to see again, with this one feeling more like a standard television bout. Nobody was expecting a classic from these two men, and the match that they provided was likely similar to how people thought it would go down. Both men went back and forth in a competitive manner, putting on a fun mid-card match for the show. WrestleMania Backlash only had a short card in comparison to the juggernaut two-night event that took place during WrestleMania 38 weekend.

Rousey captures gold, Ripley joins Edge, Bloodline stands tall, does Cody have ring rust?

Really, aside from Ronda Rousey winning the women’s title, was there anything hugely memorable about Sunday night? Five such grudge bouts – three of which were Mania rematches – is a bit excessive. Backlash was a better-than-average wrestling show.

Charlotte Flair sustained a storyline injury during her SmackDown Women's Championship "I Quit" match against Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania Backlash.

Charlotte has been wrestling pretty consistently on WWE since returning in December 2020 to capture the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Asuka. Flair lost her title to Rousey after quitting while locked in a steel-chair assisted armbar, ending her latest title reign at just shy of 200 days. But now it appears like we won't be seeing a third installment of this matchup for quite some time.
