It’s set to start at 8 p.m. eastern time and can be streamed live on Peacock in the United States and the WWE Network everywhere else.

Days before the event, let’s take a look at the favorites that are expected to emerge victorious, according to the current betting odds.

WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022 Odds

Odds as of May 4.

Flair vs Rousey (“I Quit” SmackDown Women’s Championship) Pick

Ronda Rousey winning the SmackDown Women’s Championship was considered a lock by many fans, which made Flair’s victory and retention of the title all the more surprising. Considering this rematch will have an “I Quit” stipulation, it’s hard to believe Rousey will be uttering those two words under any circumstance.

This should be the show where Rousey finally becomes champion and puts this rivalry to rest. Flair once again escaping with the gold is a definite possibility if the idea is for Rousey to win at next month’s Hell in a Cell event, but that would certainly be the wrong route to take.

Reigns & The Usos vs McIntyre & RK-Bro Pick

RK-Bro and The Usos were originally scheduled to do battle in a standard tag team match to determine a unified set of tag team champions between Raw and SmackDown before the bout was changed to a six-man tag team affair also involving Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre. As of this writing, nothing will be at stake.

The lack of titles being on the line makes it more likely that the trio of McIntyre and RK-Bro will pull out the victory to set up Reigns vs. McIntyre one-on-one for down the line, though this one could easily go either way.

Rhodes vs Rollins Prediction

Although Rhodes’ return to WWE at WrestleMania 38 was heavily foreshadowed ahead of time, he has far exceeded all expectations as how he’s been portrayed so far. He’s been on an absolute roll and beloved by crowds, but he won’t lose anything by coming up short in this ‘Mania rematch with Rollins to create the need for a rubber match.

Styles vs Edge Prediction

Following his loss to Edge at WrestleMania 38, AJ Styles has been out for revenge on Raw. It’s a much different situation than it was a month ago now that Damian Priest has been introduced as a disciple of Edge and Finn Balor has formed an alliance with Styles. The Phenomenal One avenging his loss from last month makes the most sense.

Lashley vs Omos Prediction

Nothing about this feud has been overly interesting, but it has featured some solid storytelling. If WWE is intent on making a new star out of Omos, it’s imperative he wins against Lashley with help from his new manager and mouthpiece, MVP.

Corbin vs Moss Prediction

Moss has a better chance of walking away a winner at WrestleMania Backlash than anyone else on the card. Moss has gradually been building new momentum as of late and a win against Corbin will get him one step closer to super stardom in WWE, provided his character gets a complete overhaul soon.
