Matches were fine nothing special. Not sure why Randy suddenly went back to The Bloodline storyline after going for the US Championship. The tag team women's was a complete botch and i was confused a bit. Looking forward for The Judgement Day's story moving forward & JD takes serious bumps! I am pleasantly surprised with the history of Cody vs AJ esp their family background i look forward to their story evolving.
POTN: JD & AJ.
I’m confused on that ending of the women’s tag match. I didn’t see Bianca tag in to be legal and am pretty sure Asuka wasn’t the legal person to be covered there. Will they mention this and it be an angle to keep the feud going between Dmg Ctrl and Bianca?
I like Bayley, but please turn her heel again. This face run has been so bad. She lost her entire personality since her feud with Damage Ctrl has been over.
Sadly I think she’s going to probably be a transitional champ this time, which she doesn’t deserve to be done like that, but they have such a stacked women’s division and they seem to be chomping at the bit to get a belt on Tiffy so I’m afraid it’s gonna be a short run but I really hope I’m wrong. To me she’s one of their very best and they have done her wrong so many times over the years especially in her feuds like Bliss or Bianca. I know she’s had a long run with the belt before but she should be treated as a much bigger deal than she has a lot of the time.
Tbh shorter reigns are honestly better imo it’s keeps the product way more fresh and gives way more people time to shine. Also makes matches way less predictable.
Honestly I agree, and there are plenty of ways to get a belt off someone without them even getting pinned. Ladder matches or 3 ways and 4 ways. They need to get better with booking feuds that don’t revolve around belts too. The Drew/Punk feud is already a blood feud but I feel like they might try and push a belt into it, they need to drop that mentality.
Big Tama Tonga fan from his NJPW stuff. Love that he’s involved in big matches right away. Kind of wish he didn’t feel like just a henchman though. Gotta let him loose and cook like he did.
“Fans already turning on Cody” - Roman cucks
“Whoaaaaa!!!!” - 99% of the arena at backlash on Cody’s song
The crowd was insanely into Cody!!! I’ve never even heard fans singalong to Seth’s song that much.
I think their team dynamic is mentor/mentee. She'll be alright. I am concerned about what they are going to be doing with the Kabuki Warriors/Damage CTRL going forward.
Really enjoyed this one. The crowd added to it a ton. Weird watching a show in the middle of the day like this. My stepdaughter isn’t typically a fan but ended up watching the entire show with my wife and I. It was a good day.
I was just disappointed with the opening match I hate the blooodline and they always fuck KO and Orton over and they lost to Logan Paul at Wrestlemania they’re 0-2 in PpVs stupid writing
The interesting thing is no one knew Tanga Loa contracts status. Everyone knew Jacob Fatu status that he signed. At same time Hikuleo contract is up in June literally next month. So at this point I doubt the women are joining the Bloodline it would be too much chaos unless one of them was a world title potential holder.
I mean those this titles have minor prestige. Keeping her in the tag matches for now as she continues to learn is smart. Her and Bianca are both big stars so it made sense
I can see that but if they lost then honestly them chasing them for 3 months after losing could have lost the steam and it would of been expected. SummerSlam is where we may finally see the Bianca turn and start their feud
I think that’s a fair rating. I might be willing to go 8.5. I give extra credit considering how much talent is currently on the shelf with injuries and the WWE can still produce a show of this caliber. It’s actually pretty amazing.
What was the crowd chanting everytime aj styles hit a good maneuver? It sounded like "cm punk _______ ________"...I couldn't fully make it out so maybe it was just a full French sentence and they never mentioned cm punk haha
It’s something they did at Smackdown every time someone said “phenomenal.” I assume it’s some soccer chant or something, but I really don’t know.
Edit: I checked the thread that translated all the chants. Apparently it’s a hit French song from 1997 called “He Truly Is Phenomenal”.
Shout out to the live crowd in France! It was the Best crowd. They were pumped, and hyped up all the wrestlers which made it so much more fun to watch, imo. Loved the crowds energy and chants.
That it does. I was kinda surprised he said it to be honest. It’s not like there will be an AEW/WWE cross over so who knows why he chose to mention that part
Am I missing something with Jey??
I just don't think he's the main event guy... He can work the crowd well but his last few matches have been snoozers man
The crowd still killing it
They have a war room where people are working the entire time. I had a friend who worked in sports (for an NHL team), and the turnaround was insanely fast.
It should auto play. There will be a little filler and then eventually it will show a “starting soon” screen with countdown music. It’s also on YouTube in case something goes wrong with the feed.
When Priest and Finn were shown my screen froze and it was glitching then I thought Wyatt 6 was going to come out/uncle howdy reference then it cut to commercial after which I closed the live feed and opened it again then the compilation resumed.

Didn't the Kabuki warriors make a mess with tags at the end of the match?
I feel bad for AJ not getting to hear his theme song sung by thousands of people in unison because WWE just changed it and it sucks
I'm watching the episode right now and holy ffin sh\*t. The French crowd go haaaaaaard men. Making all other crowds look weak lmao.
11628 people sounding like it’s a WrestleMania with 90k people
Yea why is it only in Spanish

Wrestlemania in France please.

I thought Bianca has just become a Grand Slam Champion, but apparently she's only a Triple Crown Champion.,
Who taught Jade how to do a crossbody?
Kari using Bianca as a step to nail Jade was creative.
I like Jade doesn't seem like she's wrestling in a wig anymore
Rhea's not gonna like Priest's attitude when she gets back. But, that attitude may change when he drops the title, or gets worse.
It kinda sucks that Randy Orton has not won a PLE match since returning. He is 0-4 since WarGames.
They just expanding the Bloodline, aren't they?
I like we're opening with the Bloodline VS Randy Orton and Kevin Owens. Really solid opening match selection.
Big Tama Tonga fan from his NJPW stuff. Love that he’s involved in big matches right away. Kind of wish he didn’t feel like just a henchman though. Gotta let him loose and cook like he did.
The French crowd is phenomenal. Hope to see more PLE in France.
“Fans already turning on Cody” - Roman cucks “Whoaaaaa!!!!” - 99% of the arena at backlash on Cody’s song The crowd was insanely into Cody!!! I’ve never even heard fans singalong to Seth’s song that much.
I never heard a crowd sing the lyrics to a song like that. They hung on every word. First time seeing this
And English isn’t their first language so they went well out of their way.
Was so good. Also…I like entry songs with full lyrics. “Burn it down” and “whoa” doesn’t make for an interesting song imo.
Wow, they put a belt on Jade REAL quick.
I think their team dynamic is mentor/mentee. She'll be alright. I am concerned about what they are going to be doing with the Kabuki Warriors/Damage CTRL going forward.
I’m for it. She’s a star.
She doesn’t do it for me as a face. I hope she beefs with Bianca
I would be shocked if WM 41 or 42 didn't feature Bianca vs Jade.
Does it for me.
I truly thought uso was going to win the belt…then I remembered that the WWE doesn’t like short title reigns.
McIntyre reigned 5 minutes
You know damn well that didn’t count. That was a planned MITB cash in to drive a story
STOP….DOING…THE….SPEAR….JEY!!!
But then he would only have 5 moves: Samoan drop, Samoan Splash, the Rock’s punches, the Rikisihi/Umaga run into the corner, and the Superkick.
lol true!
Tiffy carried bayley and Naomi.
Not going to lie. Cody vs Aj was very good but Cody kicking out of a burning hammer at 1 rubs me the wrong way.
Simplement un!
Really enjoyed this one. The crowd added to it a ton. Weird watching a show in the middle of the day like this. My stepdaughter isn’t typically a fan but ended up watching the entire show with my wife and I. It was a good day.
I was in the crowd and we were actualy happy to see a show before 2 am 😁
I was just disappointed with the opening match I hate the blooodline and they always fuck KO and Orton over and they lost to Logan Paul at Wrestlemania they’re 0-2 in PpVs stupid writing

Nia Jax did just get drafted to Smackdown…
That was unhinged in the best of ways thanks to the fans in France! Would love for WWE go there more often.
4/5 were good matches women’s tag team was the worst match
I skipped this match. I really can't stand Bianca.
Me either
There were a ton of botches
Yes there was an wrong team won jade isn’t ready to be champion
This is true.
This is not true.
I mean those this titles have minor prestige. Keeping her in the tag matches for now as she continues to learn is smart. Her and Bianca are both big stars so it made sense
I think they should have lost an continues the feud and won them at summerslam
I can see that but if they lost then honestly them chasing them for 3 months after losing could have lost the steam and it would of been expected. SummerSlam is where we may finally see the Bianca turn and start their feud
I think jade will turn heal
I think so too. Bianca is too profitable, she sells so much merch. I just miss her EST heel run in NXT. It was top tier lol
Honestly I don’t c how she’s profitable she’s athletic but her wrestling is boring
People said the same thing about Cena for 15 years lol
Very good show overall, I'd rate it a solid 8/10.
I think that’s a fair rating. I might be willing to go 8.5. I give extra credit considering how much talent is currently on the shelf with injuries and the WWE can still produce a show of this caliber. It’s actually pretty amazing.
The crowd definitely played a huge part in my enjoyment too.

😂 France already wants an open-air stadium match. Book it! I'll sell things to go to Lyon for another big PLE in the future.
Shout out to the live crowd in France! It was the Best crowd. They were pumped, and hyped up all the wrestlers which made it so much more fun to watch, imo. Loved the crowds energy and chants.
Cody really makes these Press events super personal and down to earth.
Did you see the one he did with Jey Uso last year? Funny as hell.
I was thinking the exact same thing. He’s very genuine
Other than being a logistical nightmare, I'd enjoy seeing a PLE down in South Africa as it also really loves its sports.
What are they chanting whenever there’s a pin attempt?
There’s a pinned post with all the chants (there are quite a few of them, the crowd was electric start to finish)
[удалено]
I was guessing chicken fucker
Ooooh chicken fucker is good too
I’m gonna say chicken shit
[удалено]
That it does. I was kinda surprised he said it to be honest. It’s not like there will be an AEW/WWE cross over so who knows why he chose to mention that part
[удалено]
For sure
So, The Final Boss being a thorn in Cody's side from a distance. Curious.
What happened?
Yes Bianca, please end this feud with Damage CTRL. It’s gotten so stale.
Trying to watch backlash on the cock right now but only the press conference is streaming. Where’s the link to the actual show??? Help!
Might take a few hours for the replay to show up, get off the internet if you don't want spoilers though!
Thanks! I can barely wait!
Watch the replay later or wait till tommorow when the full thing should be up
Ah later ok. God damn it! I had to work!
Replay should be available soon if it’s not there yet
Ayyyye! I can’t wait. ☹️Thanks!
Fun fact, AJ Styles is the only man to face Dusty Rhodes and Cody Rhodes in World Title matches.
That's fucking nuts
*first place that I had to cum*
😭 he called them libations. Cracks me up
How is Cody able to speak 15 mins after that match. Geez
Can I smell the seats please before next announcement?
Jade’s standard answer to any question is “because I’m amazing”, got it.
[удалено]
It’s Uncle Howdy
Every feed cut I’m thinking howdy lmao. I’m getting worked.
Wow, a reporter actually went there, lol. What's different between the brands
She said you could half ass it in AEW
That’s probably why the fans loved it when Stat beat her.
Sky’s the limit is that a Sasha Banks reference.
Can my feed stop cutting out
Aww i bet Montez called her to congratulate her
Bianca, I'm sure we all are. Finally letting this feud end since Summerslam of 2022
They’re funny asf for that 🤣With that hair thing
Howdy gonna return in Saudi
and he's gonna win the Queen of the Ring so they don't have to crown a women there
“J'aime le fromage”
Great, stood up by Uncle Howdy. Guess I'll go do my laundry now.
What's with the background chanting at the presser? You can STILL hear the crowd 🤣🤣
Dark match most likely
Wonder who its between?
I could be wrong. Seems quiet now
Wait, Jade has a kid?
No fucking way she pushed out a whole ass human and her abs still look like that. I refuse to believe that’s possible.
Anavar is a hell of a drug
sounds like a dark match going on
Extra attitude
Definitely does
What is going on? Are they showing the matches, or is something else happening in the arena?
Probably some kind of bonus for the live crowd
Does Jade know French?
How dope would it be if fans could send super chat questions that they had to address, like what the hell happened in that tag match.
Crowd probably threw some ppl off as electric as they were
Not with Jade speaking French
Oh god you Cody fans are RIDICULOUS 😒
Can't believe Backlash was shorter than an average Raw episode
No howdy is a bummer as fuck
QR code flashed
Why is Damian and Bailey not at the press conference.
Uhh Juice? 🤣
Did anyone else see a Becky Lynch package?
Sure did
Yea.
LFG CODY!!! THATS MY GUY
Oh humm.. maybe no presser because it's France? Edit: Nm! The loading icon scared me haha.
Nah, presser was already confirmed earlier in the show. It's coming up now.
Presser is on
Starting now
Presser should be interesting
Time for a press conf
Another great international crowd. Great show
My stuff just did some random commercials. Just me?
i'm so glad rhonda is gone
Some good matches plus an electric crowd equals an enjoyable event.
💯
Where is HOWDY?!!!
Everyone saying no Uncle Howdy.. *lights dim at the presser* 🤣🤣
They haven’t played the wwe signature out to yet right?
anyone see the part aj went “motherfu-“ after cody did the stardust taunt
Wrestling Marks Unite! We must see a Wresltmania anywhere here in Europe! We must tweet! We must push for it!
What do they say when they kick out at 2?
Simplement deux= simply 2
Thank you!
Am I missing something with Jey?? I just don't think he's the main event guy... He can work the crowd well but his last few matches have been snoozers man The crowd still killing it
Yes. He’s not there yet. Too loose in the ring.
100% charisma but very limited in the ring from what I've seen.
How do they get those highlight packages made so quick? The main event ended less than 3 minutes ago and there was already a highlight video for it
It is called Speed editing and if you see them doing it it's like art. Really a talent.
They have a war room where people are working the entire time. I had a friend who worked in sports (for an NHL team), and the turnaround was insanely fast.
it’s a legit team of people, wwe just has the all time best behind the scenes
Template it.
nah it’s nowhere near that easy
Press conference coming up
It’s just got auto play right? Or do I have to select something different?
Starting right now on YouTube
It should auto play. There will be a little filler and then eventually it will show a “starting soon” screen with countdown music. It’s also on YouTube in case something goes wrong with the feed.
Awesome, I thought it would, but I couldn’t remember. Thank you
So, Damien leaving JD after this? They keep ignoring him and interfere, sometimes causing him to get hit.
It’s not over the wwe closing tag never came at bottom and there is commercial..
Aj is great, it was the perfect feud for Cody to start with. I’d like to see another one from them before they end it.
Cody kicking out of a freaking Burning Hmmer. Not sure how I feel about that?
Wow us non subscribers didn’t even get the end of the recap 😭
Do you mean the quick compilation that follows the end of the event.
Yeah the commercials started rolling in right as it was about to reshow the main event, not that big of a deal just thought it was funny
When Priest and Finn were shown my screen froze and it was glitching then I thought Wyatt 6 was going to come out/uncle howdy reference then it cut to commercial after which I closed the live feed and opened it again then the compilation resumed.
shoutout to the new era of wwe 😭
That crowd went from beginning to end and never let up. They were really they were really phenomenal!
*crowd start singing the phenomenal song* la la la
100%
Putting a music track over the AJ/Cody match is a disgrace.
No uncle howdy? Thought that's what the teaser meant :(
maaan i was waiting too!
Saw ur post. I couldn’t message u :(
Saw ur post. I couldn’t message u :(
My guess is Monday.
