WWE WrestleMania Backlash Match Revealed, T-BAR and Mace Join Bobby Lashley?

by

WWE has announced the first match for the upcoming WrestleMania Backlash pay-per-view and it’s a rematch of WrestleMania 37 Night One.

In tonight’s RAW, Drew McIntyre defeated Braun Strowman and Randy Orton in a Triple Threat main event to become WWE Champion Bobby Lashley’s new # 1 contender. According to the determination, McIntyre vs. Lashley for the WWE title is now officially up for the WrestleMania Backlash pay-per-view.

Lashley just retained his title on McIntyre during Night One at WrestleMania 36 on Saturday.

After the # 1 Contender’s Triple Threat on RAW, MVP took the stage and stood there as McIntyre watched from the ring. Former RETRIBUTION members T-BAR and Mace then charged from behind and lashed out McIntyre in the center of the ring. MVP apparently arranged the hit. The RAW After WrestleMania went off the air with T-BAR and Mace watching from the bottom of the ramp, while MVP watched from the podium and McIntyre stared everyone down from the ring.

As for Lashley’s status, he previously appeared on the show for a pre-recorded arrival segment, then defeated Riddle in the non-title opening match. He was advertised to give his All Mighty Address and when MVP later came out for the segment, he promised Lashley would join him, but Lashley was never seen again. The segment that was supposed to be the All Mighty Address changed to the segment to be the Orton vs. McIntyre vs. Strowman main event.

There’s no word yet on why Lashley never came out again, but we’ll keep you posted.

The WWE Backlash pay-per-view events usually feature rematches from WrestleMania shows.

WrestleMania Backlash takes place May 16 from the WWE ThunderDome at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida.
