WWE Backlash 2025 is scheduled to be carried out in St. Louis tonight. With several main stars involved, there is much that could happen in the PLE event.
Some fighting could include shocking turns, such as betrayals and great returns. Here are five last -minute predictions for Backlash 2025 that could revolutionize the event:
#5. Gunther will probably dominate Pat McAfee at WWE Backlash 2025
Pat McAfee is no stranger to high pressure fighting. He has had great performances in the past, but Raw's commentator has never faced someone like Gunther. The General Ring has been one of the most dominant stars in WWE since he joined the main roster. It has only been immobilized or subjected by a handful of stars.
Gunther has made it very clear that he is not happy with the fun of fun and obsessed with Yeet de McAfee and Michael Cole. He warned McAfee with a chilling phrase in RAW this last Monday.
“Just by the grace of God I can lift my arms from your throat,” he said. (2:42 onwards)
It is fair to say that probabilities are strongly against McAfee. This fight could end up being unilateral, with Gunher inflicting a vicious beating to the former NFL player.
#4. Finn Bálor could betray Dominik Mysterio
The tension between Dominik Mysterio and Finn Bálor has been growing in recent months. In Wrestlemania 41, Dominik immobilized Bálor in a Four-Way fatal fight to win the intercontinental title. Although that was a great moment for “Dirty” Dom, he could soon cost him expensive.
With Liv Morgan now taking a WWE break due to a film filming, this is the perfect time to shake the group, and Finn could be ready to attack.
Bálor could appear during the defense of Dominik's title against Penta tonight and cost The Latino Cheat a possible victory, looking to take revenge on what happened in Wrestlemania. It would be a shocking moment, but one that would make total sense in history.
Finn betraying Dominik in Backlash could mark the end of the career of the young Mysterio in The Judgment Day, establishing a heated rivalry between the two.
#3. Only Sikoa could betray Jacob Fatu during Four-Way Fatal Combat
One of the most intense fighting scheduled for Backlash 2025 is a Four -way fatal combat between Jacob Fatu, Damian Priest, the Knight and Drew McIntyre for the United States title of The Samoan Werewolf.
Fatu is able to overcome the chances against him. However, he must be attentive to his former tribal Chief, only Sikoa. After losing a team fight against Knight and Priest last night in Smackdown, only Sikoa is probably frustrated, especially because Fatu ignored his idea of introducing new soldiers to his group.
Sikoa has been trying to recover the control of the new Bloodline since he lost the ULA Fala against Roman Reigns earlier this year, but Fatu has not been listening to him. He could only decide to take the matter in his own hands tonight. It could interfere with the Four-Way Fatal Combat and cost The Samoan Werewolf the title of the United States.
#2. Bayley could return and cost Becky Lynch his fight
In Wrestlemania 41 Night Two, Becky Lynch replaced Bayley in the fight for the title of female couples after attacking The Role Model before The Show of Shows. The Man and Lyra Valkyria defeated Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez to become the new team champions. However, the Irish stars lost the gold against The Judgment Day in Raw after 'Mania, which led to the shocking change to Heel de Becky. She will challenge Valkyria for the Women's Intercontinental Championship tonight.
Bayley has not been seen on WWE television from Wrestlemania, and Backlash 2025 could be the perfect occasion for his return. He could intervene in Becky's fight and help Lyra Valkyria retain the title.
This would not only help Bayley take revenge on Lynch, but would also lead to a complete rivalry between the two Horsewomen. Fans are eager to see Bayley back in action, and an unexpected return like this could generate headlines and shake the female division once more.
#1. John Cena could cheat in backlash 2025
Randy Orton is ready to face John Cena for WWE's undisputed universal championship at the main backlash 2025 event.
The Apex Predator remained standing on The Last Real Champion in the previous edition of SmackDown before the PLE, a subtle clue that Cena will retain his gold in St. Louis. Similar to what he did in WWE Wrestlemania 41, The Franchise Player could resort to unfair tactics, in addition to seeking possible assistance from Travis Scott, to get out of St. Louis as champion.
