This Sunday, Wrestlemania Backlash is coming to Providence, Rhode Island. The May 8 PPV--which is happening on Mother's Day--will feature a few Mania 38 rematches with some extra stipulations, like people being barred from ringside or making your opponent yell "I Quit" in order to get the win. Here is everything you need to know about Wrestlemania Backlash from the start time to how to watch to predictions to the match card.
This year's event takes place at the Dunkin' Donuts Center (that's a real place). As of this writing, there are six matches on the card and only one of them is for a championship title. Ronda Rousey challenges Charlotte Flair for her Smackdown Women's Championship in a I Quit match, and if you're familiar with that type of match--in which you need to make your competitor scream "I quit"--they can be brutal.
Below, you can check out the start times for the Wrestlemania Backlash, and once again, British wrestling fans will have to stay up until early in the morning to check it out. But hey, at least you all get Summerslam this year.

As for the match card, Cody Rhodes was Seth Rollins' big surprise opponent at Wrestlemania, which ended with Rhodes getting his redebut win in WWE. Now, Rollins will be prepared for Rhodes as the two battle again.
Originally, the tag match between The Usos and RK-Bro was going to be to unify the tag team titles--at least in storyline--however, that angle was dropped, and now, Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre are joining the fight to make it a six-man tag team match. Check out the up-to-date match card below, which we'll continue to update as the week progresses.
