Japanese Superstar Kushida, U.S. independent breakout sensation Shane Strickland and renowned luchador Humberto Garza have landed at the WWE Performance Center.

I’m excited for KUSHIDA. Not seen much of the other two but I’ve heard good things about both. Come to think of it I do remember seeing some of Strickland in Lucha Underground

 

[Kross Rhodes]

They got CZW's Shane Strickland?

 

[Chris]

IDK who the other two are but hopefully KUSHIDA ends up doing better than the other big name Japanese guys WWE's gotten the last few years.

 

[Cwalker]

I’ve heard Kushida’s name being rumored for a while now. Hopefully he’s successful.

Crazy to think we could’ve had Kushida, KENTA and Ibushi in the WWE at once

Harper was helluva hand and that was it. We pretending he could've been used better is baffling since he wasn't only destined for jobber status,

And we talking about the Sanity guy who was the dumbfuck who broke his head doing a German suplex into a table?

That movie looks awesome, I hioentheynarent doing a reverse Fight With My Family and its terrible asopposed to looking terrible and being good.

I mean it’s not like it would have been our first ppv in 11 years

Gotta get that Arab money though I get it

 

[Chris]

Story said they didn't want a PPV named "Backlash" following a "Probably controversial Saudi PPV"

 

[Kross Rhodes]

The story I heard was they didn't want a PPV 11 days after another one, but they never cared about that before.

That makes more sense. WWE gotta protect that Saudi money?

 

[Jimmy King]

They’ve replaced it with a Raw house show, which I’m cool with even though a ppv would have been fun but I understand.

There’s also a local promotion running a show the day before that I’ll be at, I haven’t missed one of their shows yet.

 

[Chris]

I never liked Backlash not following WrestleMania anyway, it was the perfect show for them to easily book some WrestleMania rematches

The event is literally called Backlash. It was the perfect follow-up show.

One less show to watch
