At this time, the WWE schedule looks clumsy. There are numerous special events in store following the Wrestlemania season.
The superstar shakeup has just passed by bringing us to the Greatest Royal Rumble event. This was an added WWE Network exclusive show that was a first-time ever.
Just one week after this special event from Saudi Arabia, we are going to have the Backlash PPV.
It’s is going to be even bigger considering that for the very first time ever since 2013, we will have WWE PPV events, co-branded. All the superstars from both WWE Raw and Smackdown will get to compete in it.
Meanwhile, the WWE’s women superstars were excluded from the Greatest Royal Rumble event. This is due to the certain restrictions for the female performers in the Saudi Arabia country.
So, they will have to wait until the Backlash PPV – to settle the bad blood amongst them.
One of the most organic rivalries during the Wrestlemania season was seen between Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax.
For the past one year, the Wicked Witch of the WWE has dominated the scene with the title around her waist. This was taken away from her at the biggest stage of them all in New Orleans.
So, she does have a rematch clause intact under her name. This was invoked in recent times to make the rematch official at the upcoming PPV event.
But, Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax rematch is done for Backlash which is scheduled at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey on May 6th,
“At WWE Backlash, newly-crowned Raw Women’s Champion Nia Jax will look to thwart the always-dangerous former titleholder Alexa Bliss in a WrestleMania rematch. Find out who will emerge victorious when The Irresistible Force collides with the immovable Goddess at WWE Backlash, streaming live Sunday, May 6, at 8 ET/5 PT on the award-winning WWE Network!”

While there’s no doubt that Alexa is the Goddess of the WWE, truly but we have to remember that Nia has proven to be the irresistible force of the Raw roster, as well.
Lately, she has been dragging some major mainstream attention to the roster with the fans being in her favour. It will be interesting to see if her dominant run continues even at the Backlash PPV.
