WWE Raw is going through the post-Wrestlemania season from last week onward and it will also provide builds for Backlash pay-per-view on the latest edition in store for tonight via a loaded card.

Jey Uso is going to challenge for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at the coming Backlash PPV event. Heading into the show, he's expected to pick up momentums as he squares off against the champion's cohort Finn Balor.

Uso has been on a hot streak, recently as he claimed a major WrestleMania 40 win over his brother Jimmy Uso. Then he also became the number-one contender during last week's Raw by winning a fatal 4-way match with an assist from CM Punk.

An advertisement regarding the April 15 episode of Raw aired this past episode of Friday Night SmackDown that announced Sheamus' return to WWE programming after being absent from TV for 238 days.

As of writing, no confirmation is available on whether he will be seen in action or not. The last time we saw him in a match was when for the very first time he faced Edge on the August 18, 2023 episode of SmackDown.

Sheamus is a former King of the Ring tournament, Royal Rumble, and Money in the Bank contract winner who also cashed in on the opportunity to become a multi-time world champion in the company.

Maxxine Dupri and Candice LeRae had a verbal war on Twitter which prompted Raw General Manager Adam Pearce to take to Twitter and confirm that Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell will square off against Maxxine Dupri and Ivy Nile on the coming episode of WWE Raw.

Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes will also be making an appearance to address his next challenger for Backlash while Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley will be there in a promo session to address Liv Morgan's attack.

WWE Raw April 15 episode takes place at the Bell Center in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and the hometown favorite Sami Zayn will feature in an Intercontinental Title defense against Chad Gable. At a glance, the card stands as follows:
