But their reign didn&#8217;t last long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1234\" data-end=\"1610\">Just 24 hours later, on Raw, Becky Lynch turned heel on Valkyria after they dropped the titles back to Liv Morgan &amp; Raquel Rodriguez.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1234\" data-end=\"1610\">Lynch didn\u2019t come back to WWE to play second fiddle or drift aimlessly. Turning on Valkyria signals her renewed focus on singles gold, and the IC title is the perfect prize to kickstart her new villainous chapter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1612\" data-end=\"1756\">Expect this one to be physical, personal, and potentially career-defining for Valkyria, who continues to establish herself as a top name on Raw.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">THE MAN HAS SNAPPED!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RawAfterMania?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RawAfterMania<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Bm8G8SyDzU\">pic.twitter.com\/Bm8G8SyDzU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1914481318324215939?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>United States Championship \u2013 Jacob Fatu vs Solo Sikoa<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1838\" data-end=\"2031\">Jacob Fatu became the new United States Champion at WrestleMania 41 by defeating LA Knight in just his second WWE PLE appearance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2033\" data-end=\"2256\">Solo Sikoa, the enforcer of the former Bloodline, has simmering tension with Fatu, and it feels like a slow-burning story that\u2019s ready to erupt. There\u2019s a sense of inevitable implosion, especially with the title now adding fuel to the fire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2258\" data-end=\"2534\">Backlash could be the setting where these two Samoan heavy-hitters settle the score, with Fatu looking to solidify his dominance while Solo claws back into relevance. Whether this signals a full-blown reboot of the Bloodline or simply a grudge match remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<h3>Women&#8217;s World Championship \u2013 Iyo Sky vs Rhea Ripley<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2614\" data-end=\"2855\">Iyo Sky retained her Women\u2019s World Championship at WrestleMania, but Rhea Ripley made it clear on Raw that she&#8217;s still coming back for her title.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2857\" data-end=\"3106\">Iyo pinned Bianca to retain, and not Ripley, hinting that the two could have unfinished business. Backlash could be the stage for their last match in a while, before WWE reshape the women\u2019s main event scene after a year dominated by just a handful of names.<\/p>\n<h3>Seth Rollins &amp; Bron Breakker vs CM Punk &amp; Roman Reigns<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3347\" data-end=\"3657\">The biggest Raw-after-Mania shocker? Paul Heyman seemingly assembling a new faction with Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker at the centre, drawing comparisons to an Evolution-style power play. The betrayal of both Roman Reigns and CM Punk sets up a blockbuster tag match for Backlash.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3727\" data-end=\"3943\">Whether or not Punk and Reigns are truly on the same page remains to be seen, but the combustible elements are already in place. If WWE wants to plant more seeds for Heyman\u2019s new dynasty, this is where it all begins.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"zxx\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ceIZZ55Xjc\">pic.twitter.com\/ceIZZ55Xjc<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1914514363492270478?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Undisputed WWE Championship \u2013 John Cena vs Randy Orton<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4026\" data-end=\"4217\">If there\u2019s one match that absolutely belongs on the Backlash 2025 marquee, it\u2019s this one. John Cena vs. Randy Orton \u2014 for what could be the final time \u2014 with the WWE Championship on the line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4219\" data-end=\"4472\">WWE wasted no time setting up Orton as Cena\u2019s first challenger, using their infamous history and the St. Louis setting to perfection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4474\" data-end=\"4746\">In what may be the last time these two icons headline a PLE together, expect emotion, nostalgia, and a red-hot crowd.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4474\" data-end=\"4746\">Cena\u2019s title reign probably isn\u2019t ending here, but don\u2019t be surprised if we get a controversial finish to generate even more heat heading into the summer.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">OUTTA NOWHERE! \ud83d\ude0f<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RawAfterMania?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RawAfterMania<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Dw2NqGKfvI\">pic.twitter.com\/Dw2NqGKfvI<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1914475011873636480?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our full WWE Backlash 2025 match card predictions following the events of WrestleMania 41, including John Cena vs Randy Orton.
