The 2020 edition of the WWE Backlash PPV is almost here. The event will feature some big matches, including Drew McIntyre vs Bobby Lashley and Edge vs Randy Orton.
We have a rumor to pass your way about the kickoff show for the event. As of writing this, WWE hasn’t announced which match will be happening before the main card starts.
According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, the current plan is for Apollo Crews vs Andrade for the United States Title to be the kickoff show match. Here is what the site wrote:
According to the current internal match line-up, the Kickoff show will feature United States Champion Apollo Crews vs. Andrade. WWE has yet to officially announce that match for the Kickoff show but that is what is listed right now internally.
Crews and Andrade are two guys that Heyman was trying to push.
We will let you know if/when WWE makes this official. How would you feel about Andrade vs Apollo on the kickoff?
