First Title Match Officially Set For WWE WrestleMania Backlash

Put it in ink. We are done with WrestleMania 38 and that means it is time to get on the road to WrestleMania Backlash. As the show’s name suggests, the event will be focused on the fallout from WrestleMania, including a bunch of rematches. While a lot of the card still needed to be set up, we do have at least one match set and it is going to be a special kind of showdown.

Charlotte retained the SmackDown Women’s Title against Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 38, though she tapped out behind the referee’s back during the match. As a result, Rousey challenged her to an I Quit match at WrestleMania Backlash this week on SmackDown, with the match being made official the following day on WWE.com. This will be Rousey’s first I Quit match during her time in WWE.

Opinion: I don’t think there was any serious doubt about the match being made and that is ok. Sometimes it is nice to have the match that makes sense get set up early so the wrestlers can begin their build to the match that much faster. Rousey vs. Charlotte is one of those feuds that is a natural rivalry and they should be in for a good fight with the rules more in Rousey’s favor.

What do you think of the stipulation? Who leaves with the title? Let us know in the comments below.
