The feeling backstage is said to be jittery. Management wants to make a strong statement tonight, that Steve Austin isn't needed for high-profile pay-per-view show. From what we hear, it appears that the WWE.com guys and the people in charged may have jumped the gun on reporting Steve Austin's departure, as there were some people debating rather or not to tease the fans with a Steve Austin appearance at Backlash to drive up the buyrate.
A match was added just minutes ago on Heat. Here is the official card as of this report:
World Heavyweight Championship - Triple Threat
Chris Benoit
