The Backlash After Mania Begins

One night after the 25th Anniversary WWE didn’t waste anytime preparing for Backlash on April 26th. Tonight saw the return of Batista and plus two big matches have been signed for the event so far.

World Heavyweight Championship-Last Man Standing Match
John Cena (c) vs. Edge

WWE Championship
Triple H (c)/Batista/Shane McMahon vs. Randy Orton/Ted Dibiase/Cody Rhodes
Stipulations are if Orton’s team wins, Orton wins title. If Triple H wins, Triple H retains the title. It makes the WWE title match more interesting that way.

Raw was awesome Monday night. It saw WWE Unified Tag Team Champions Carlito & Primo def. The Miz & John Morrison in a Lumberjack Match which was a rematch from last night. Excellent match and I will say that both tag teams are awesome.

Also World Heavyweight Champion John Cena, Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio, Jeff Hardy, CM Punk, & Ricky Steamboat def. Edge, Big Show, Chris Jericho, Matt Hardy & Kane. Ricky Steamboat looked awesome tonight, the fans chanted, “You still got it.” He indeed does. What an excellent match to that took place on Raw. The draft is next week, and it’s a three hour special. I cannot wait for the draft or Backlash on April 26th. It’s going to be great.

….By the way, Where is Shawn Michaels? I am praying for a rematch between him and the Undertaker at Backlash.
