Everything You Need to Know For WWE Backlash 2025

WWE Backlash takes place Saturday in St. Louis, and it will mark the final time two modern legends ever face each other inside the squared-circle.

John Cena will make his first WWE title defense against Randy Orton this weekend in what is being billed as their final bout, and since this is Cena's last year as an active competitor, that does not seem like hyperbole.

We will also see WWE announcer and former NFL star Pat McAfee in action against a man who has been filled with nothing but rage since losing the world title at WrestleMania, Gunther.

The men's and women's IC titles will be on the line, as will the men's United States Championship.
