WWE Backlash 2025 has completed spectacularly. In all there were five very charged matches at the event. The conversation’s chief attraction started with a horrifying and gory four-man contest for the US Championship. Somewhere on the side, an undisputed WWE between John Cena and Randy Orton was the light of the show. In a bid to make the programme more entertaining, the company put a lot of resources on the programme. Each superstar left the audience mesmerised and won the fans’ hearts in their performances. Share some time to see how the audience responded to the programme.
US Championship
In a four-way fatal match against La Knight, Drew McIntyre, and Damian Priesto, Jacob Fatu defended his US Championship. This match was very explosive. No one of the four participants was bored during the fight. Jacob and McIntyre impressed the crowd with their graceful and crazy juffs. It was an unclarified ground as to who was to come out on top. Exactly as McIntyre looked on point to claim Claymore, the priest intervened and pushed him off. After that, the two collided in the midst of the audience. The priest at that point did a south of sky to McIntyre from the table. After that, no one managed to get on top.

The Sikoa soil just as Knight was trying to capitalise an elbow fall towards the upper rope and the apron entered suddenly. Jake Cobb shook hands with Knight when he got out of the ring, with a dangerous shot at his head. It appeared that Fatu was not satisfied with the result. Seizing the opportunity, he put a moonsault on Knight in the ring, getting him pinned down and serving his defence of title.

Femail Intercontinental Championship
Lyra Valkyria defended her Intercontinental Women’s Championship from Becky Lynch. The match was spectacular. The authority of Lyra could be seen throughout the whole confrontation. She annoyed Becky continuously during her moonlight and scanning kick. She brilliantly blocked some of Becky’s hose attempts a few times in the bout. Becky attempted severally to place Lyra, but Lyra always pushed her away.

Becky also attempted to get unfair advantage in the fight. She took off the tending. However, the referee took it. Finally Lyra was only able to retain the title against Becky. The face of Becky reflected open rage after the match. She continued beating Lyra and distracting her with the Degrete. The authorities came but it was difficult to calm Becky’s anger.

Balor threw another shower of distractions to the referee, and this got Penta caught in surprise as the El Grande Americano clinched in and had to deliver a surprise attack to Penta. The referee saw nothing of the attack. Mysterio took this opportunity to create a crowd and pull off a side-splitting frog splash from the top rope, pinning Penta to gain victory in the match. Now that Mysterio emerged victorious, on Judgement Day, all these were extremely happy.
The name is “DIRTY”…@DomMysterio35 still your Intercontinental Champion. #WWEBacklash https://t.co/IpAMePeQe9

Günther Vs Pat McAfee
Citizens were so keen to watch Günther go against Pat McAfee. McAfee emerged back into the ring after being absent from there for so long. He was opposed to Günther fervently. Günther was keen to finish the match sooner, but that was impossible. Time and again he released chops on McAfee. Michael Cole himself was pestering Günther to let up in the ring. Günther landed many German suplexes in the back of McAfee. He almost had Cole in the move too, but McAfee kicked him away. Cole did everything possible to help McAfee and better his chances. After all, Günther put a sleeper hold on McAfee. McAfee then was not able to recover from the chokehold. With that, from the hold, Günther took the win. He showed his respect to McAfee after the match had ended.

Undisputed WWE Championship Match
John Cena held his Undisputed WWE Championship belt against Randy Orton in a hawk-like match. This match was quite entertaining. The hometown crowd of him applauded Randy Orton a lot. The fight hence saw a lot of Attitude Adjustments/RKO sequences. There was no mercy from either wrestler as they gave both all they had. It had become so heated that the referee had to be injured twice. Orton failed to hit his punt kick as well. Else, they demonstrated their athleticism at different places outside the ring. Randy caught Cena on the table laying help less and delivered two great Attitude Adjustments. Randy struck Cena with an RKO inside the ring and immediately covered him, but the referee barely had time to count before Cena came back.

Cena tried to use the championship belt against Orton but had it strike the referee instead. Orton completed an RKO against Cena, and knew the referee wasn’t ready. Following that several officials, including Nick Aldis joined the frays in the ring. Randy tagged people out left and right with an RKO. The match had a stunning finish. Cena tried an attempt on Orton with a punt kick but he was interrupted by R-Truth. Randy gave Cena an RKO. Taking the opportunity, Cena cheated in that after hitting Orton with a low blow, he followed up on his shot from the title. It was too late for Orton to get his footing at that point. Cena scored the pin fall and retained his title. Cena grabbed a microphone and insulted this crowd.
