WWE Backlash 2025 takes place on Saturday, May 10, at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The event is set to begin at 7 PM ET\/4 PM PT.<\/p>\n<p>This will be the 20th event in Backlash&#8217;s history. WWE Backlash 2025 will be available to watch on <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.peacocktv.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peacock<\/a> in the US, and on <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Netflix<\/a> for international markets.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, five matches have been confirmed for the event, with four of those being for titles.

On the April 21 Raw, Randy Orton struck the newly-minted champion with an RKO, making it clear that he would be his first threat. With WWE Backlash 2025 emanating from Orton&#8217;s hometown of St. Louis, Missouri, the stage is set for one more chapter in one of the WWE&#8217;s most storied rivalries.<\/p>\n<p>Cena and Orton has clash 21 times in their careers, with Cena having won 13 of those. Notably, Cena is also on a four-match winning streak against &#8216;The Viper&#8217;. Yet, with the hometown crowd behind him and 14 World Championship reigns of his own, Orton steps into the match with pride and unfinished business on the line.<\/p>\n<p>As Cena continues his retirement tour, this battle with Orton feels like a fitting, high-stakes collision between two future Hall of Famers. Perhaps we are just one RKO away from history being rewritten, and the most intriguing storyline in WWE right now getting another swerve.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"FULL SEGMENT: Randy Orton challenges John Cena at Backlash: SmackDown, April 25, 2025\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wF7j6R9LpR8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Becky Lynch Attempts To Dethrone Lyra Valkyria<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What started as an inspiring WrestleMania moment quickly unraveled into one of the most bitter rivalries in WWE&#8217;s women&#8217;s division (at least on Raw). Lyra Valkyria and Becky Lynch captured the WWE Women&#8217;s Tag Team Championship at the Showcase of the Immortals, but the celebration was short-lived. The very next night on Raw, the pair lost the gold, and Lynch turned on Valkyria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Now, the former allies are set to collide at WWE Backlash, with Valkyria&#8217;s WWE Women&#8217;s Intercontinental Championship on the line. This is a captivating clash between a rising star and a veteran trailblazer, both fueled by pride, betrayal, and championship gold. Adding to the significance, it is currently the only women&#8217;s match confirmed for the Backlash card and, with emotions running high, it might just steal the show.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria get into a massive brawl: Raw highlights, May 5, 2025\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uZJkok8A2Vw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Jacob Fatu&#8217;s Fatal Four-Way Challenge<\/h2>\n<p>The United States Championship scene has become absolute bedlam heading into WWE Backlash, and it all centers around the destructive force that is Jacob Fatu. Since capturing the gold at WrestleMania, &#8216;The Samoan Werewolf&#8217; has been an unstoppable menace on SmackDown, with Solo Sikoa by his side. At Backlash, three of WWE&#8217;s top stars are stepping up to challenge his reign in what promises to be a show-stealing fatal four-way match.<\/p>\n<p>LA Knight, Damian Priest, and Drew McIntyre were all entangled in a chaotic series of matches and attacks. The mayhem forced SmackDown General Manager, Nick Aldis, to put together this fatal four-way match. With four hard-hitting, high-profile Sueprstars in one match, this could be the banger of the night &#8211; a combustible collision where the only guarantee is carnage.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jacob Fatu is all gas, no brakes: WWE Playlist\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pHQpSFNsF0g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013<\/span><\/em>\u00a0<em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a> for more on WWE Backlash and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
