After last month's Show of Shows, the WWE is returning for its next big event in Tampa and we have all the details on how you can watch WrestleMania Backlash on TV or online.
While WrestleMania 37 was the WWE's first event with live fans in over a year, this weekend's show will once again be held behind closed doors. However, fans will still get to be a part of the action albeit virtually as the WWE plans to use its ThunderDome at Backlash which will be held in Tampa's Yuengling Center.
WrestleMania Backlash will feature a total of five title matches as well as a lumberjack match between Damian Priest and The Miz.
At the top of the card, Cesaro will take on Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship while Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntrye and Braun Strowman will meet in the ring for a WWE Championship match. Rhea Ripley, Asuka and Charlotte Flair will face off for the Raw Women's Championship with Bianca Belair and Bayley will go toe to toe for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Finally, Dolph Zigger and Robert Roode will go up against Rey and Dominik Mysterio in a SmackDown Tag Team Championship match.
Tonight will likely be a big night for Cesaro as it's the first time he's ever gotten a one-on-one shot at a world title. He's been with the WWE for over a decade so it makes sense that the promotion is finally giving him his time to shine. Will Cesaro be able to take the Universal Championship from Roman Reigns?
Whether you're rooting for Cesaro, Reigns or just want to see all of the storylines that have continued from The Show of Shows, we'll show you exactly how to watch WrestleMania Backlash from anywhere in the world.
WrestleMania Backlash - When and where?
WrestleMania Backlash will be held at the WWE's ThunderDome which is currently located in the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. The event is set to kick off at 4pm PT / 7pm ET on Sunday in the U.S. and Canada and at 12am BST and 9am AEST / 7am AWST on Monday in the UK and Australia.
