After WWE SmackDown on Friday from the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, it appears we have five solid matches in place for WWE Backlash in Tampa, Florida. Here's a breakdown of the matches and the highlights from SmackDown.
SmackDown added two matches to the Backlash lineup. Trick Williams will defend the United States Championship against Sami Zayn in a singles match after Zayn ambushed Williams' Gingerbread Man mascot during the show, prompting Williams to grant the rematch.
The second addition is a tag team match featuring Danhausen and a mystery partner against The Miz and Kit Wilson. The angle was set up after Danhausen trapped Miz and Wilson in powder, only for Miz to retaliate with a Skull Crushing Finale before Nick Aldis made the match official with the stipulation that Danhausen needed to find a partner.
Here is everything confirmed for May 9 in Tampa:
Five matches have been confirmed for WWE Backlash 2026 following the latest SmackDown.
WWE Backlash 2026 will be held in Tampa, Florida.

The SmackDown side of the card still has openings, and the May 8 go-home episode is the last chance to fill them. The biggest question is the WWE Championship picture: Cody Rhodes remains medically uncleared after the orbital injury Randy Orton inflicted at WrestleMania 42, which leaves the Undisputed WWE Championship match in limbo. An open challenge framing has been teased, with Orton, Gunther, and CM Punk all in conversation as potential opponents depending on Rhodes' recovery status.
The Womenâs Championship picture is also developing. Rhea Ripley vs. Jacy Jayne has been rumored after Fatal Influence's debut attacks on the women's roster, but the match has not been officially booked.
Backlash streams live on ESPN Unlimited in the U.S. starting at 6 p.m. ET on Saturday, May 9. International viewers can watch on Netflix in most markets, with SuperSport carrying the show in Sub-Saharan Africa and Abema in Japan.
This is the first Backlash to stream on ESPN in the United States after WWEâs Peacock contract expired at the end of Clash in Paris in August 2025.
