5 booking decisions that WWE should avoid at Backlash 2018
The first official pay-per-view after a jammed packed edition of Wrestlemania is Backlash and this a pay-per-view which would consist of both Raw and Smackdown Live superstars.
WWE has marketed this show as a conclusion to many of the rivalries wrestling fans have witnessed over the course of last year.
Therefore, that would mean new storylines, feuds, and superstars would emerge after this event.
From Wrestlemania rematches to a trilogy of dream matches, Backlash 2018 has the potential to conclude many of the company's narratives in white hot fashion and pave the way for a different landscape on both Raw and Smackdown Love.
However, while WWE is going to try and produce a grand pay-per-view that would satisfy fans expectations, they must not make mistakes which might affect certain superstars momentum and the credibility of their title reigns.
#1 Big Cass eats defeat
While a majority of the WWE Universe hate the idea of Big Cass being Daniel Bryan's first opponent in the second run of his WWE career, it is an intelligent move on WWE’s part to pair the seven-foot giant with an established megastar like Bryan.
However, matching another 'Vince McMahon project' with Bryan might pose more negatives to Cass than positives, as many feel the big man does not have the skills to hang with the main event stars just yet.
Therefore, even with all the criticism, Cass may get WWE cannot have his budding young career go the wrong route like former rising Smackdown Live star Baron Corbin who was ruined by lousy booking decisions.
Whether Cass defeats Bryan or the match ends in a disqualification, WWE needs to protect him on a night where his career essentially begins.
