WWE Backlash 2017 Live Stream: Watch Online

A look at how to watch Sunday night’s WWE Backlash 2017 pay-per-view.

On Sunday night, the WWE Backlash pay-per-view will emanate from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL. It’s the first SmackDown-exclusive show since Elimination Chamber in February.

The build toward Backlash has had taken some interesting twists and turns. It’s featuring different Superstars rising to the occasion and going for championship gold. One of them hasn’t even come close to a title in the WWE in years.

One match that fits this is for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship. The Usos will defend against Breezango, who hadn’t found their footing since the 2016 WWE Draft. It’s by far the best opportunity they’ve received since and will look to make the most of it at Backlash.

The other is the main event, which will see Randy Orton put the WWE Championship on the line. He’ll look to fend off Jinder Mahal, who won a No. 1 Contenders Match in April to earn this opportunity.

Mahal’s rise to the WWE Championship scene came as a surprise to fans, as he had hovered around the low card of SmackDown since returning to the company last year. This even saw him lose a mini feud to Mojo Rawley just a short time before, too, making the ascension even more head-turning.
