WWE Chief Creative Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque recently took to his Twitter (X) account to promote the 2026 WWE Backlash premium live event (PLE), which is scheduled to take place next month in Tampa, Florida.
Triple H shared an image of the official 2026 Backlash PLE poster, featuring the newly crowned World Heavyweight Champion, "The OTC" Roman Reigns. This suggests that Reigns will have a significant presence at the premium live event.
This is what Triple H wrote, “The OTC returns to Tampa, FL…#WWEBacklash is LIVE from the @benchmark_arena in 2 weeks!”
WWE Backlash 2026 will take place on Saturday, May 9, at the Benchmark International Arena in Tampa. It will be broadcast live on the ESPN App in the U.S. and on Netflix internationally.
