The result of WrestleMania 38 spreads through WrestleMania Backlash. Existing feuds continue and newcomers dial in intensely on Sunday night in Providence, Rhode Island.
RK-Bro, the Raw Tag Team Champion, and The Usos, the SmackDown Tag Team Champion, regularly deliver WWE’s best matches and microphone segments on a week-by-week basis. The desire of both teams to unify the tag team title has elevated the formerly old tag team division. Momentum has been strong with Randy Orton and Riddle. Jay and Jimmy Uso’s struggles encouraged undisputed world champion Roman Reigns to take matters into his own hands. RK-Bro found an unlikely ally in former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, setting up a major six-man tag team match.
SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair surprised many with Ronda Rousey’s WrestleMania moment in April. Two submission experts will torment each other in an “I Quit” match on Sunday. Cody Rhodes, who will make a vigorous and elaborate WWE return at WrestleMania 38, will also be back in action against Seth Rollins.
