Lyra v Becky gonna be so damn good. @Unbesiegbar brother we watching this live next Sunday , yeah? Team Becky v Team Lyra in a friendly rivalry will be cool as hell watching this with you and the rest of the forum. Becky winning wouldn't be bad either with Lyra chasing and showing why she's one of the best talents in all WWE with the GOAT Lynch as IC Champ would make my day.

I want Lyra to win but I could see Becky win with Lyra getting it back down the line. Part of me wishes they'd do a finger poke, then have Finn help JD beat Dom. And they all just mess with Sheamus about being an Irish Intercontinental Champion

United States Champion Jacob Fatu vs. LA Knight vs. Damian Priest vs. Drew McIntyre (Fatal 4-Way Match)​

Jacob Fatu will defend his United States Championship against LA Knight, Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre at WWE Backlash.

Since capturing the title at WrestleMania, Fatu has exuded sheer dominance, with Solo Sikoa at his side to disrupt matches and help bring bedlam to Friday night.

With several Superstars vying for an opportunity to challenge The Samoan Werewolf, Damian Priest caused a disqualification in LA Knight's No. 1 Contenders' Match against Drew McIntyre. The continued chaos promoted SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis to set up a Fatal 4-Way Match for the United States Championship on May 10.

Can anyone stop the ferocious Fatu?​

 

[Shane]

That is one star studded fatal four way

 

[Cwalker]

Priest definitely taking the fall but it should be a hell of a match

Sounds fun but no finger poke of doom though. Let both women's talents shine and show why they're two of the best in WWE. Becky's the GOAT For me and helping elevate Lyra would be amazing.

Just me being silly, I saw Lyra and Sheamus on Celtic workout and they're pretty funny together. I wanted them to recreate this regular show episode. Realistically I think Becky wins and Lyra chases eventually getting a big win

Agree with you and I know mate, all good .

I like this card except for Pat McAfee being involved but that’s just a personal thing as I really don’t like him. He is obviously going to win, which I think is sad for Gunther, but I know it’s been said he’s going to have time off anyway. Other than that, I’m also surprisingly interested in Lyra vs Becky. I am not really a fan of either but I think Lyra was already bringing a bit more to the table on Raw last week. She is normally weak on the mic but she appeared much more comfortable, especially the further she got in to it. She is already good in the ring. This match should elevate her.

Bro Gunther is winning lol

 

[Lady Redfield]

Bro Gunther is winning lol

I want to think so but I don’t know I feel like they will stupidly give this one to Pat and then Gunther will disappear lol


I sincerely hope I’m wrong and I will love it

Nah cause there’s no storyline reason that Pat McAfee wins unless he’s planning on becoming a full time competitor. If this is just a one off match then he’s losing

I could see some dumb fuckery where maybe Pat wins. But I give it a 5% chance.

Either Jey is gonna get involved and cost Gunther, or Pat is getting destroyed and is gonna get written off for a while.

Jey would be smart not to get involved tbh. Surely if he fights Logan after that match.
