Backlash Preview

21st April 2002

WWF Undisputed Championship

Triple H © vs The Rock vs Undertaker

There'll be more on the line in this match than just the WWF Undisputed Championship. As agreed by WWF Co-Owners Ric Flair and Vince McMahon, who ever wins will keep the title exclusively on their own brand. Undertaker will keep the belt on RAW and Rock will keep it on Smackdown! However if Triple H retains he can choose which brand he defends the title on exclusively. Triple H walks into this match the underdog as a week ago Undertaker brutalised and hospitalised the champ. 3 days ago on Smackdown! The Rock teamed up with Triple H to beat Kurt Angle and Chris Jericho after the match the two shook hands, but The Rock sent a clear message by giving a Rock Bottom to the champion. Can Triple H come out of his biggest challenge yet with the title still around his waist?

Stone Cold Steve Austin, Kane and Big Show vs n.W.o (Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, X-Pac)

Since the brand split the n.W.o have been a constant thorn in the side of these three men. A backstage assault on Big Show, a post match beatdown on Kane, and screwing Stone Cold out of a chance of being in the Championship match are all events which lead to this match being made. Big Show and Kane however seemed to have their own differences to settle when Kane attacked Show after he accidently hit him while trying to help him against the n.W.o! By the end of RAW they seemed to be on the same page as all three men made an example of the n.W.o with Stone Cold giving Stunners to all three of them. Kane and Big Show still seemed to have a little tension as RAW went off the air, will they be able to co-exist? And will we see these three stand tall over the n.W.o once again? Or will the n.W.o poison prevail?

WWF Intercontinental Championship

Rob Van Dam © vs Booker T

On the first RAW of April Booker T made a statement. He interfered in a match pitting RVD against Undertaker and cost him the victory. The following week Booker gained a pinfall victory over 'Van Dam in a tag team match. This past week Booker T laid a beating on former ECW star and friend of RVD's Tommy Dreamer. Rob Van Dam made the save, but was ambushed by Undertaker (who RVD had a answered a challenge to earlier) and a match between the two started. Booker T once again screwed Rob Van Dam out of the victory and goes into Backlash holding all the aces. Will RVD overcome the odds? Or will we see a new Intercontinental Champion crowned?

The Next Big Thing Open Challenge

Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman vs ??????

Since coming to RAW Paul Heyman's "Next Big Thing" has been destroying opponents. He has annihalated Bradshaw and Matt Hardy as part of his Open Challenge and this last week destroyed both of the Dudleyz (Bubba and Spike) in a handicapped Tables Match! Who will answer Lesnars challenge? Will anyone stop his undefeated streak? Or will the challenger just become The Next Big Things next victim?

WWF Undisputed Championship Number One Contendership

Hollywood Hulk Hogan vs Chris Jericho vs Kurt Angle

Angle and Jericho have recently formed an alliance of sorts and have battled against the likes of Hulk Hogan and The Rock. While Jericho and Angle have continuously come up short as far as match results are concerned, will Hogan's luck run out when he is put into a match against both these men with no one to help him? Fuel was added to the fire last week when Jericho brutally assaulted Hogan on Smackdown! Hogan will be looking for revenge but what condition will he be in? Will it be a handicap match or will Jericho and Angle's friendship deteriorate when its every man for himself?

Steel Cage Match

Diamond Dallas Page and Edge vs Christian and Lance Storm

This match certainly has a lot of history behind it. Christian and DDP have been at each others necks for months now since DDP won the WWF European title from Christian and then became his 'mentor.' It wasn't long before Christian turned on DDP and the two clashed at Wrestlemania X8. The feud has continued on Smackdown! with Lance Storm aiding friend and fellow Canadian Christian get the better of DDP. A cage match was signed between DDP and Christian, but when Edge appeared to even the odds against the Canadians Vince McMahon added him and Lance Storm to the match. Can this feud finally be settled?

WWF Tag Team Championship

Billy and Chuck w/Rico © vs D-Von Dudley and Faarooq

When D-Von and Faarooq were both seperated from their partners as part of the brand extension, they decided to put their differences aside and team up to challenge the champions Billy and Chuck. Faarooq and D-Von have managed to get the better of the champions on numerous occaisions but have not yet wrestled as a team. Will their veteran skills be enough? Or will the former rivals be unable to get along? What about the champs, will they have anything up their sleeves?

WWF Cruiserweight Championship

Tajiri w/Torrie Wilson© vs Hurricane vs Billy Kidman vs Chavo Guerrero

Smackdown! is the home of the amazing Cruiserweight divison and in the past few weeks these four men his displayed great athleticism in top quality matches. It has become clear that in recent weeks, Tajiri has mistreated Torrie Wilson and Kidman and Hurricane both have her interests at heart, while it seems all that Chavo wants is the gold! Will Tajiri's foul play allow him to hold onto the title? Will we see a new champion? Will Torrie play a part in the result?

Ive decided to discontinue this diary. I wasnt happy with the promos and attempted to re write all the previous ones but its far to time consuming. This can be sent to archives if a mod wouldn't mind doing so. Thanks.
