WrestleMania rematch announced for Backlash
The second match for Backlash was announced last night on Raw and keeping with the tradition of WrestleMania Backlash, it’s the second rematch from WrestleMania.
Seth Rollins, who saw Cody beat the Miz yesterday, challenged the former AEW TNT champion to a rematch, saying that this time Cody won’t have the surprise advantage.
Rhodes didn’t think long enough to accept Rollins’ challenge, and even said he’d be very happy to oblige if Rollins asked for one earlier in the night when he was a guest on Miz TV.
The only other match announced so far is an I Quit match between Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey for the Smackdown Women’s title. Backlash takes place on May 8 from Providence, Rhode Island.
