WrestleMania 24 saw The Miz defend his WWE Intercontinental Championship against Seth Rollins and Finn Balor in a Triple Threat match. Rollins managed to win the match and take home the Intercontinental title.

At Backlash, the show opened up with a match for the Intercontinental Championship between Rollins and The Miz. While The Miz did perform well during the match and also delivered his Skull Crushing Finale, he fell prey to Rollins’ Stomp which helped him retained the title at the end of the match.

This was the last time that the 8-time Intercontinental Champion The Miz, tried to win the title, as he moved on to other titles and feuds following Backlash 2018.

The Miz and Seth Rollins are on two very different paths for WWE Backlash this year

This year, The A-Lister will team up with John Morrison to take on Universal Champion Braun Strowman in a handicap match at Backlash. This is a major boost for the Superstar who was on a losing spree before Morrison returned to WWE and the two men reformed their team to become the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.

Seth Rollins, on the other hand, is one of the most despicable men on RAW today and has been playing the character of The Messiah of Monday Night RAW, where he has formed a faction and is looking for a big match at this year's Backlash.
