WWE BackLash 2023: Match Card, Start Time, How To Watch (Updated)

WWE BackLash is the first premium live event following WrestleMania, the biggest event of the year in professional wrestling. The biggest rivalries come to fruition and legends are made. So BackLash becomes the fallout of everything that happened at WrestleMania. There are new feuds, but also some old feuds still have unfinished business.

WWE returns to Puerto Rico for a premium live event for the first time since 2005. Furthermore, the event will be hosted by Bad Bunny, the biggest artist in the world. Over the past year or so, WWE has been holding more premium live events outside of the United States. The international crowds are always the best, so there’s no denying this will be a very fun show.

Overview

WWE has been putting on really good premium live events lately and I expect the very same for BackLash. I would be surprised if Logan Paul isn’t on the card, especially after he renewed his WWE contract. Latino World Order is in the middle of a feud with Judgement Day. So there are a few different matches that can happen from this. However, it is worth noting that the next premium live event is Night of Champions which takes place only a few weeks after BackLash.
