PostWrestling.com is reporting that the Backlash premium
live event is internally marked to take place in San Juan,
Puerto Rico with a tentative date of Saturday, May 9, 2026.
If this ends up happening, it will be the second time that
WWE hosts Backlash in Puerto Rico following a very highly
successful PLE in 2023.
That year, Smackdown on the eve of Backlash also took place
from the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot, with
14,000 and 15,000 fans attending the shows respectively.
The event had the participation of Grammy Award winner and
megastar Bad Bunny wrestle Damian Priest in a San Juan
Street Fight. That match saw the return of Savio Vega and
Carlito, receiving massive pops from the crowd.
Bad Bunny is headlining the Super Bowl LX halftime show in
early February and remains a part of the WWE family.
