John Cena retained the Undisputed WWE Championship against Randy Orton in a chaotic main event at WWE Backlash 2025. The match saw multiple referee knockouts, interference from R-Truth, and a controversial low blow, culminating in Cena's victory. Post-match, tensions escalated when Cena attacked R-Truth during the press conference, hinting at a potential heel turn. Jacob Fatu successfully defended his United States Championship in a Fatal 4-Way match against LA Knight, Drew McIntyre, and Damian Priest. The match featured the surprise debut of Jeff Cobb, who assisted Fatu, adding a new dynamic to the Bloodline storyline. In the Women's Intercontinental Championship match, Lyra Valkyria retained her title against Becky Lynch in a hard-fought battle, setting the stage for a possible rematch. Dominik Mysterio continued his reign as Intercontinental Champion by defeating Penta, with assistance from El Grande Americano (Chad Gable), furthering the feud leading into the upcoming "Worlds Collide" event. Pat McAfee faced Gunther in a grueling match, enduring 14 minutes of intense action. Despite a valiant effort and support from commentator Michael Cole, McAfee succumbed to a sleeper hold, marking a respectable performance in his second-longest WWE singles bout.
