Bad Bunny Match & More Announced For WWE Backlash

More announced for WWE Backlash

Backlash will need to find a new host after it was revealed during the April 24 edition of Monday Night Raw that Bad Bunny - the original host of the pay-per-view - will actually be in action on May 6 in Puerto Rico. 

Bad Bunny made his return to WWE TV on Raw, making the save for Rey Mysterio after Damian Priest attacked the former World Heavyweight Champion. Bunny battered his WrestleMania 37 tag team partner with a kendo stick and then announced he would face Priest in a Street Fight at Backlash.

While they had previously been friends, Priest put Bad Bunny through the announce table on the Raw after WrestleMania 39 following a confrontation between the rapper and Dominik Mysterio. Bunny interfered in Dominik's match with Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 39, helping the WWE Hall of Famer to win.

Bianca Belair will also defend the Raw Women's Championship against IYO SKY at Backlash. SKY defeated Michin and Piper Niven on the April 10 episode of Raw to become the number one contender for Belair's belt. 

Check out the updated Backlash lineup below: 

  • Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar
  • Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, & Matt Riddle vs. The Usos & Solo Sikoa
  • Bad Bunny vs. Damian Priest - Street Fight
  • Bianca Belair (c) vs. IYO SKY - Raw Women's Championship
  • Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Zelina Vega - SmackDown Women's Championship
  • Austin Theory (c) vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Bronson Reed - United States Championship
  • Seth Rollins vs. Omos
