Backlash- presented by Major League Wrestling's (MLW's) RAW brand!
This weekend from Las Vegas, NV:
1. The Crusher vs World Champion Nick Bockwinkel
By winning a handicap match against Bockwinkel's fellow Heenan family members Don Leo Jonathan and King Kong Bundy a few weeks ago on RAW, avowed Heenan Family enemy The Crusher finally gets his long anticipated challenge against World Champion Nick Bockwinkel
2. Jimmy Snuka vs Larry Zbyszko (dog collar match)
Snuka and Zbyszko have been bitter enemies since last Fall when Zbyszko split open a coconut over Snuka's head during an episode of Larry Land. The rivalry re-intensified at Wrestlemania when Snuka played a key role in Zbyszko's loss of the Intercontinental Championship to Jim Londos. Zbyszko has held his own in his matches against Snuka so far. But this match at Backlash is a dog collar match. And Snuka has never lost a dog collar match as last year he defeated his former enemies Gorgeous George and Don Muraco in dog collar matches at the Great American Bash and Unforgiven respectively.
3. Brothers of Other Mothers vs MLW Tag Team Champion the Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff (best 2 out of 3 falls match)
After winning the Second Annual Sammartino Invitational for the second consecutive year earlier this month, the Brothers of Other Mothers are now setting their sights on capturing the MLW Tag Team Championship.
4. Intercontinental Champion Jim Londos vs Don Muraco
After defeating Larry Hennig a few weeks ago on RAW in a #1 contenders match thanks to help from his partner Mr. Perfect in the newly named tag team Magnificent Perfection, Muraco gets an opportunity to win the Intercontinental Championship at Backlash.
5. Larry Hennig vs Curt Hennig (first blood match)
After Mr. Perfect caused Larry Hennig to lose his #1 contenders match against Muraco, "the Axe" has challenged Mr. Perfect to a one on one match at Backlash that will pit father vs son or blood vs blood in a first blood match.
6. Buff Bagwell vs Brutus Beefcake
Unable to regain their lost glory as former MLW Tag Team Champions, the Heart Thrashers broke up at the Second Annual Sammartino Invitational following their elimination in the Sweet 16 by the Road Warriors when Beefcake and Cassandra attacked Bagwell. Who will win this first-ever matchup between former MLW Tag Team Championship partners Bagwell and Beefcake?
7. Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs Ed "the Strangler" Lewis (Lewis' debut match)
"The Strangler" makes his highly anticipated Major League Wrestling debut in this match at Backlash.
8. Antonino Rocca vs Iron Mike DiBiase
At last year's edition of Backlash, Rocca was in the main event against World Champion Bockwinkel. This year at Backlash, Rocca seeks redemption against Iron Mike DiBiase who ambushed him on last week's edition of RAW as DiBiase seeks to try and make a name for himself at this year's edition of Backlash by defeating a headliner from last year's PPV.
9. Koko B. Ware and the Missing Link vs the Vachons
Angered by the Missing Link's refusal to eat Frankie, Abdullah Farouk acquired the Vachons and instructed them to attack the newly formed friends Koko B. Ware and the Missing Link. Who will win this match this weekend at Backlash?
10. The Hot Seat: Gorgeous George as the guest with a major announcement.
George has announced that on this special edition of the Hot Seat, he will make an announcement that will forever change the face of Major League Wrestling's RAW brand.
