WWE Backlash 2006

This Backlash had so many good points and bad points that it is difficult to sum up.

Poor Trish Stratus separated her shoulder in the match with Mickie James and this storyline with James fancying Trish is so out of date. The usage of 'God' in a match is in poor taste and McMahon should not present God as a joke, ie Shane drinking water then it turns to wine is so pathetic for a wrestling organisation.

Results from Backlash which was held in Lexington Kentucky are as follows: Carlito defeated Chris Masters with his feet on the ropes. Mickie James defeated Trish Stratus via DQ to retain the Women's title. The Big Show and Kane went to a no contest. Rob Van Dam beat Shelton Benjamin in a thrilling match to win the Intercontinental Championship. Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon defeated Shawn Michaels with help from the Spirit Squad. Umaga defeated Ric Flair in a crap squash. John Cena retained the WWE Championship against Edge and Triple H. After the match Tripper pounded them both with the sledge hammer much to the delight of the crowd! Overall Grade - B-
