WWE Backlash 2026 - Fatu vs. Reigns

 






For a B show, this has a fairly loaded lineup with the very real possibility of Reigns losing the title to Fatu right away and setting him up as THE GUY long-term.  Seth vs. Bron starts off and Seth botches a few things and eats a torpedo spear after eating a falcon arrow off his own superplex. So yeah I wouldn't be picking up my phone if I was him. Sami vs. Trick is up after a gingerbread man recap. Helluva to the neck and the twisting kick and Trick shot win it. Miz/Kit vs. Danhausen and his mystery partner is up and it's a Minihausen and this just gets under. Like "got over like a fart in church" has a new visual.


The Minihausen soars around and does cool shit, but this gimmick is death. Danhausen gets a small flying kneelift and a brogue kick wins. Thank Christ for Iyo and Asuka having to try and save this show. Asuka has her butt hanging out and does some cool Kawada kicks over the apron. Back and forth and Iyo gets the Asuka lock AND THE MOONSAULT WINS! Then they hug and is Asuka retiring!?


They show Keirn and Spivey in the crowd but don't show Keirn until later. Cena comes out and gets a ONE MORE MATCH chant. MASSIVE Oba chant with Cena hyping up SNME. Cena announces THE CENA CLASSIC - a past vs. future tournament. We get a Krusty-level ad with Wade and Cole hyping up Mug Root Beer and then Cole burps and Wade says it's going to make him piss himself. WELL THAT WAS MONEY WELL-SPENT IF YOU'RE THE MUG FOLKS!


Roman eats a suicide dive and the superman punch gets 1! Corner mounted headbutts by Fatu! ASSALANCHE! Another superman punch gets 2.5! Roman gets the spear after the death grip and then another deathgrip after the Roman win.
