Backlash and the Heavyweight Title

By Scott Keith on 1 May 2018

Hey Scott… I did a bit of research and I found that, since the brand split in 2016, the WWE Heavyweight title (you know… The one with the lineage) hasn’t once been defended in the main event of any of their co-branded PPVs.

My question is, do they actually treat the belt like it might mean something and put AJ/Nakamura on to close out Backlash, or will they give Roman the top spot so he can get booed out of the building again?

I think we know the answer.
