- Vince McMahon claimed that Shawn Michaels had some divine intervention in their match at Wrestlemania 22. Vince announced that he and Shane would take on Shawn Michaels at Backlash, and HBK's partner will be ... God!
- The three men at the top of the card at Backlash will be John Cena, Triple H, and Edge. There is an arguement for any of these three to be the champion, but we'll find out who it is as they do battle in a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship.
- Despite being friends on RAW, there has always been a competiveness between the yougsters, Chris Masters and Carlito. After Carlito felt Chris Masters cost them the match for the tag-titles at Wrestlemania, he attacked Masters to set up the contest for Backlash.
- Its fair to say the Women's division has been a little confusing lately, Mickie is Trish - Trish is Mickie, nobody is sure what is happening. But, at Backlash, continuing the greatest feud in WWE Women's history, Mickie James will defend her Women's Championship against Trish Stratus, in a Wrestlemania re-match.
- Also on the card, Umaga makes his PPV debut against vetran Ric Flair; former partners Kane and Big Show face-off; and Rob Van Dam takes on Shelton Benjamin in a winner-take-all (MITB vs IC) match.
RESULTS
- Carlito defeated Chris Masters with the Backcracker in a passable opener.
- Umaga squashed Ric Flair in pretty worthless match, using his taped up thumb.
- Mickie James lost to Trish Stratus by disqualification, therefore, still retaining her title. Trish picked up a dislocated shoulder in the process.
- Rob Van Dam downed Shelton Benjamin in a decent match to become the Intercontinental Champion and retain his Money-in-the-Bank contract.
- Kane and the Big Show fought to a No Contest in a dull match, after Kane had a mental breakdown.
- The McMahons defeated Shawn Michaels and God, following interference by the Holy Spirit Squad.
- John Cena retained his WWE Title in a Triple-Threat Bloodbath against Edge and Triple H, following a quick pin on the Game.
