WWE BackLash 2026: Live Stream, Full Match Card, Date & Start Time

It’s the first Premium Live Event (PLE) after WrestleMania, and the WWE is heading toward BackLash with all sorts of heat. The WWE’s latest PLE will be held at the Benchmark International Arena in Tampa, FL, and will air live on ESPN domestically and on Netflix internationally.

All of the heat WWE has comes from things like the Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu buildup, the WWE parting ways with talent, and rumors that it is asking wrestlers to take a pay cut. As they say, all heat is good heat, and WWE is rolling into Tampa with the momentum needed to pay off on Saturday. With WrestleMania not meeting the expectations of fans who watched it, whether live at Allegiant Stadium or on ESPN, is there more pressure to deliver this weekend than there has been in recent years?

Below are all the details to help you get ready for Saturday’s WWE BackLash PLE.
