WWE Backlash 2026 is set to take place on May 9, 2026, at the Benchmark International Arena in Tampa, Florida. The event will feature five matches, including a highly anticipated World Heavyweight Championship match between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu. Predictions indicate that Reigns will retain his title, as he has recently regained it and has a history of defeating top opponents. In another match, IYO Sky is expected to defeat Asuka, especially if Kairi Sane returns to aid her. The United States Championship match sees Trick Williams likely retaining his title against Sami Zayn, who has turned heel. Additionally, Bron Breakker is predicted to overcome Seth Rollins, potentially with help from the returning Bronson Reed. Lastly, Danhausen and his mystery partner are favored to win against The Miz and Kit Wilson, regardless of who his partner turns out to be.
