WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022 Roman Reigns Riddle
WWE.com

Result: The Bloodline score the win after Roman nails Riddle with a Spear (22:20).

Rating: This took a little while to get into that higher gear everyone expects from a main event match, but once it got there it was a surprisingly terrific bout.

Six-man matches have a tendency to be rather clunky and uneven but the booking did a solid job of giving everyone their time to shine, especially Randy Orton.

The desperation spots and near-falls were fantastic, the pacing was terrific throughout, and the crowd was red-hot for it by the delirious final stretch.

Giving the Bloodline the win was a genuinely surprising move as the match presented an obvious opportunity for Roman to be defeated without losing face, but it nevertheless proved there's plenty of juice in a Roman feud with either Drew or Randy. 8/10
