WWE Backlash 2026: 10 Things That NEED To Happen
5. A Mass Brawl Breaks Out
If Bronson Reed does show face, then so will The Street Profits. In turn, that'll bring Vision members like Austin Theory and Logan Paul out to try and fight alongside their mates. Retaliating, the babyface side would introduce none other than Joe Hendry to target LP and further their ongoing influencer vs. influencer battle.
Breakker, Reed, Theory and Paul on one side, Rollins, Hendry, Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins on the other. Gee, that sounds a whole hell of a lot like we're heading into 8-man tag land, doesn't it? WWE can pretty much use the post-Bron vs. Seth brawling at Backlash to set up a colossal main event for Monday's Raw.
Why not, eh? Those tuning into regular TV can spot that coming a mile off anyway. It's even better that the brawling pre-amble wouldn't dominate over the actual match on PLE itself - Rollins and Breakker would still get plenty of room to breathe, and so would Bronson's grand return.
A few minutes later, everyone and their dog would join the party to pop the live crowd with a hot brawl that raged on into the concourses of Tampa's Benchmark International Arena. Bonus points if Hendry twangs Paul with a guitar like this is WCW Nitro from 2000 and his name is Jeff Jarrett.
That's J-O-Double-E...ha ha...H-E-N-D-R-Y. OK, not really. That doesn't actually fit, but you get the gist. He ain't called Joee Hendry. Christ, if Vinnie Mac was still in charge, he'd likely be called 'The Edinburgh Rock' or something. Meh, Hendry would find a way around that and get over regardless.
