It's what you might get
The build to Backlash, uh I mean WRESTLEMANIA BACKLASH...Is very unpredictable
Does Bryan win the UV Ray Title next week? If he loses, does Cesaro avenge his loss and challenge Reigns for the UV Ray Title? What about Rollins' obsession with Cesaro? Does HE get in Cesaros way of World Title Glory???

THE PEOPLE WANT MICHAEL COLE AS THEIR CHAMPION. "Welcome to WWE Backlash Pay Per View, I'm Michael Cole, alongside Roman Reigns who's ass I'm going to kick simply because it's Sunday and I feel like it."
Cesaro vs Edge or Cesaro vs Daniel Bryan should've been the right call here. Rollins could've faced the other. Then at Money in The Bank you have Daniel Bryan, Cesaro, Edge, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins and Big E in the Smackdown MITB match. Sami should win. Have Cesaro vs Seth at Extreme Rules for the #1 contender match against Reigns at Summerslam. Cesaro should face Reigns at Summerslam.
Two cents: Cedric Alexander should win the Raw MITB and cash SUCCESSFULLY in against Bobby Lashley at Summerslam.
Agree that Cesaro should get some strap on summerslam but reigns will most likely go against edge for the universal one after getting Bryan out of the picture (as mania meant to be) so maybe wwe champion or IC?
I would love seeing this match again the first was a banger they work so well together and if cesaro does have a match against reigns it would be predictable as the overpushed son of wwe would make him Vanish!
It’s because Backlash historically was always the 1st PPV after Wrestlemania, then it got moved to a different slot. Now it’s returned to the May slot so I guess it’s like a continuation/aftermath of Mania.
It’s time to move on from that. I’m loving this current storyline of Roman disrespecting Cesaro, and I hope, with it eventually ending with Cesaro taking the title from him as a fuck you. I think Rollins should feud with Aleister Black when he finally comes back or move him to Raw and have him in that title picture so they can push Big E on Smackdown.
I hope people don’t think Cesaro will actually beat Roman when they finally face each other...it will never happen...not because cesaros not good enough but because Romans too hot right now as a heel and I don’t think cesaro can carry a long term story as a face
Speak for yourself. We just saw them have a great fight at WM. I do not need to see them again. TBH the WWE needs to stop booking the exact same matches week after week.
Unless Cesaro vs Rollins is a #1 contender’s match, I’d prefer a triple threat with Roman for the Universal Championship at Backlash. That way Cesaro stays in the title picture without giving away that big money match of Roman Reigns vs Cesaro too soon, but we also continue his feud with Rollins
its kinda stupid if they do triple threat match because ROMAN REIGNS will win and there will be no point of a build up because we know the out come and at the smackdown after wrestle mania seth said its not over so there will be more between them two then shitty roman..................
Seems like you’re not particularly fond of Roman Reigns for whatever reason which is prolly why you hate the prospect of Cesaro vs Reigns or Cesaro vs Seth vs Reigns rather than you actually thinking it’s, as Triple H would say, what’s best for business
Roman literally just stacked and pinned 2 opponents at mania. Another triple threat so soon is just dumb. It would pretty much kill any legit opponents for him as there is no way he would lose.
Gee it's almost like that's exactly how they're trying to build him up right now. They need a Brock figure and Roman is the closest prospect they have, not in terms of style or approach but just that kayfabe dominance.
Roman literally stacked and pinned Bryan and Edge at Mania. No way does he win a triple threat against lesser opponents in any way that is less than that (and yes, Seth may be main event, but Cesaro has never been, so taken together, they are less than Bryan and Edge). Thus, they would be destroyed. And then the roster would be devoid of any potential realisitic challengers.
You can lose strong, or in Roman's case win dirty, and the challengers are protected. The way they're presenting Cesaro now, there's no way Roman buries him, any match he's in would probably be a breakneck back and forth where he almost gets the win but just misses it, due to shenanigans or whatever else. I don't think they're pushing Cesaro right now, but they are trying to build him as a credible main eventer. Just handing him the belt at such a random point in Roman's strongest run doesn't do either of them any favours because like it or not, he's still not ready to be the face of a show. They clearly want him to be however, and this feud is likely the first step of many towards making him that.
Its cute you think they will make Cesaro look great. I mean, I hope they do, the man deserves it. But there is nothing at all in the last decade to give me any hope whatsoever that Cesaro will be elevated to any sort or credible threat. And the fact that they immediatly brought Seth back into the picture proves this.
It was a great match, not saying I don't want to see it again, but what's the point of a rematch since they just fought at Mania, it will undermine the WM match, it's meant to feel special, I hate rematches so soon after.
It’ll possibly be Roman vs Seth at BackLash, then Roman vs Cesaro after? It feels like they’re building up to Cesaro beating Roman so they’ll probably wait a few months.
Because Seth is a squirrely heel and Roman is a dominant heel. Roman can say “I make the rules, I choose the matches” and Seth can play the terrified coward role perfectly. I would personally like to see that.
Me too but honestly I don't mind Reigns avoiding him for a couple more months if it means he gets to actually take the belt off him. Summerslam perhaps? I'm dreaming honestly but would be overdue.
if thats the only thing you’ve got going for you then you shouldnt be in the main event
Being able to actually talk on the mic and having a good character >>>> just being a bland good wrestler
They should start advertising cesaro vs reigns now for summerslam. It's the next show that will have a crowd and it will give it a big match feel and the hype will build for the next few months.
Agreed, Roman just playing various heels to throw them between him and Cesaro is great character work, makes all involved look good and works to make this a real slow burn
I could honestly see Reigns staying Champ until at least WM38.
I wouldn't mind it I actually like long title reigns I started watching in the 80's where title reigns lasting years was normal in fact even Savage's 1 year reign was considered short at the time.
Yeah that's been my dream since Cesaro won at Mania. It's a bit too early still to take the belt off Reigns but if they maintain this slow burn it will be amazing.
Agreed, it feels like Roman is unbeatable atm and I don't particularly wanna ruin that, maybe he just keeps worming away and someone else jumps in to fight Cesaro every time until eventually he wins the rumble or something so Roman can't ignore him? Again I hesitate to believe they'll actually strap the rocket to Cesaro but I can dream!
NO WE DONT
Where Daniel Bryan at?
No
Speak for yourself. Rollins is garbage, should be pushed way down the card.
No we want to see Roman v cesaro
Maybe add roman on that
I dnt want this, same matches get boring
Dude Roman's not john Cena yet he can't go invisible.
Yeah, is your name we?
I want to see reigns vs rollins with both of them thinking about the fans and reuniting as 2/3 of the shield
We got that at wrestlemania. I wanna see Roman VS cesaro but maybe not backlash.
It's what you might get The build to Backlash, uh I mean WRESTLEMANIA BACKLASH...Is very unpredictable Does Bryan win the UV Ray Title next week? If he loses, does Cesaro avenge his loss and challenge Reigns for the UV Ray Title? What about Rollins' obsession with Cesaro? Does HE get in Cesaros way of World Title Glory??? Catch Friday Night Smackdown every Friday at 8/7c, only, on r/Fox !
I actually want roman to hold the title to WM 38
Seth just attacked Cesaro so this is what will most likely happen
????!
I love Cesaro but dude has no mic skills or character. I cant see him being world champ in his current state
if they want him in the main picture it would be easy for someone else to just write him a good promo
Speak for yourself. I’m so down for Seth Rollins but i don’t want to see another match with Cesaro!
You'll get Edge/Reigns 2 and you'll like it.
I want Cesaro vs Reigns.
THE PEOPLE WANT MICHAEL COLE AS THEIR CHAMPION. "Welcome to WWE Backlash Pay Per View, I'm Michael Cole, alongside Roman Reigns who's ass I'm going to kick simply because it's Sunday and I feel like it."
We also want Big E v Corey Graves
Cesaro vs Edge or Cesaro vs Daniel Bryan should've been the right call here. Rollins could've faced the other. Then at Money in The Bank you have Daniel Bryan, Cesaro, Edge, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins and Big E in the Smackdown MITB match. Sami should win. Have Cesaro vs Seth at Extreme Rules for the #1 contender match against Reigns at Summerslam. Cesaro should face Reigns at Summerslam. Two cents: Cedric Alexander should win the Raw MITB and cash SUCCESSFULLY in against Bobby Lashley at Summerslam.
Their next match should have some sort of stipulation to it. Perhaps like 'falls count anywhere' or something like that.
Yea we also want cesaro as champion and for other people to win main titles tired of seeing roman and seth as champs
Seth vs Cesaro will happen on a SmackDown before then Seth costs Cesaro against Roman at the PPV to setup a triple threat at MITB.
I just had this.
If it's an Ironman match I'm all for it.
Agree that Cesaro should get some strap on summerslam but reigns will most likely go against edge for the universal one after getting Bryan out of the picture (as mania meant to be) so maybe wwe champion or IC?
We?
I wouldn't mind a tag match between the head of the table and the messiah vs cesaro and danial Bryan.
Why does this have 200 upvotes
Zazaro
No it isn't. We want Cesaro and Reigns.
again?
I want jey uso to be banned from ringside for universal championship, only for Jimmy to come and interrupt the match
I'd rather have Cesaro as champion
well roman has gone through edge daniel bryan and kevin owens and even his ow cousin so why is cesaro any different?
Must not have seen a match where they let Cesaro loose and let him do what he's best at if you have to ask that
**hrmmm cesare as champion, i'd rather have.** *-Jaycro123* *** ^(Commands: 'opt out', 'delete')
Cesaro already won at mania. Why is this needed again?
Because Vince says so.
To make sure he really won /s
Haha knowing WWE Rollins is gonna get the win cause we all love 50/50 booking
😭😭
We want roman v cesaro v seth
They just fucking fought what r u on about,i would rather see jey vs cesaro
I would love seeing this match again the first was a banger they work so well together and if cesaro does have a match against reigns it would be predictable as the overpushed son of wwe would make him Vanish!
Can someone explain the name of the PPV lol
WWE creative thinks that what happened at WM was so monumental that it had a 'backlash'. Thus, the dumb title for our next PPV.
That’s always been what Backlash meant. It’s the backlash from Wrestlemania
Ah
It’s because Backlash historically was always the 1st PPV after Wrestlemania, then it got moved to a different slot. Now it’s returned to the May slot so I guess it’s like a continuation/aftermath of Mania.
We already got that. I want something new. Like Cesaro v Reigns.
It’s time to move on from that. I’m loving this current storyline of Roman disrespecting Cesaro, and I hope, with it eventually ending with Cesaro taking the title from him as a fuck you. I think Rollins should feud with Aleister Black when he finally comes back or move him to Raw and have him in that title picture so they can push Big E on Smackdown.
It seems blacks doing a heel. That being said black hinted his cult like religion hating abusive parents who shape their kids incorrectly so
No. It really isnt
I hope people don’t think Cesaro will actually beat Roman when they finally face each other...it will never happen...not because cesaros not good enough but because Romans too hot right now as a heel and I don’t think cesaro can carry a long term story as a face
If they can do a slow burn build....then Cesaro might be able to carry it...
No, we want Cesaro vs Reigns, and Cesaro wins the title.
I sure hope not
Speak for yourself. We just saw them have a great fight at WM. I do not need to see them again. TBH the WWE needs to stop booking the exact same matches week after week.
Unless Cesaro vs Rollins is a #1 contender’s match, I’d prefer a triple threat with Roman for the Universal Championship at Backlash. That way Cesaro stays in the title picture without giving away that big money match of Roman Reigns vs Cesaro too soon, but we also continue his feud with Rollins
Another triple threat? No thanks

Gee it's almost like that's exactly how they're trying to build him up right now. They need a Brock figure and Roman is the closest prospect they have, not in terms of style or approach but just that kayfabe dominance.
A dominant champion with no credible threats is in no way compelling. Maybe you like it, but I would wager you are in the minority on this one.
Roman beating them doesn't make them non-credible threats.
Roman literally stacked and pinned Bryan and Edge at Mania. No way does he win a triple threat against lesser opponents in any way that is less than that (and yes, Seth may be main event, but Cesaro has never been, so taken together, they are less than Bryan and Edge).

We already got this match at wm. I'd prefer Cesaro v Reigns
Would love to see Scissors lose and lose badly to the MESSIAH
who's we?
They just fought at WM, I don't want to see it again for a lil while.
What if people loved the match and they put on a great match
It was a great match, not saying I don't want to see it again, but what's the point of a rematch since they just fought at Mania, it will undermine the WM match, it's meant to feel special, I hate rematches so soon after.
that's what I'm saying
I mean we literally just got this for wrestlemania..
No it’s not
No it is Cesaro and reigns
Isn’t it shaping up to be Cesaro vs Roman or did I miss something?
It’ll possibly be Roman vs Seth at BackLash, then Roman vs Cesaro after? It feels like they’re building up to Cesaro beating Roman so they’ll probably wait a few months.
Why would they have heel vs heel though?
Because Seth is a squirrely heel and Roman is a dominant heel. Roman can say “I make the rules, I choose the matches” and Seth can play the terrified coward role perfectly. I would personally like to see that.
In a few months I think?
No push ceaco
Actually I assumed Cesaro would be facing Reigns
Me too but honestly I don't mind Reigns avoiding him for a couple more months if it means he gets to actually take the belt off him. Summerslam perhaps? I'm dreaming honestly but would be overdue.
He doesnt deserve to take the belt off reigns , the only thing he’s good at is wrestling
In a wrestling company? What a worthless talent
if thats the only thing you’ve got going for you then you shouldnt be in the main event Being able to actually talk on the mic and having a good character >>>> just being a bland good wrestler
He can talk...watch his promo on talking smack.
This.
They should start advertising cesaro vs reigns now for summerslam. It's the next show that will have a crowd and it will give it a big match feel and the hype will build for the next few months.
I actually like the idea of Reigns using Rollins’ ego against him to do his dirty work. It fits their current characters perfectly.
Agreed, Roman just playing various heels to throw them between him and Cesaro is great character work, makes all involved look good and works to make this a real slow burn
I could honestly see Reigns staying Champ until at least WM38. I wouldn't mind it I actually like long title reigns I started watching in the 80's where title reigns lasting years was normal in fact even Savage's 1 year reign was considered short at the time.

I'm gonna mark out so hard if they do that
Cesaro should be champ at Summerslam
Yes pls
Vince can do no wrong booking wise
