Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker delivered a highly physical, action-packed match to open WWE Backlash 2026. The Visionary pulled out all the stops to emerge victorious, but in the end, it was The Unpredictable Badass who had the last laugh.
The bitter rivals did not waste a single minute, as Bron immediately attempted a Spear on Seth as soon as the bell rang. However, Rollins was alert, dodging it and going on the offensive. However, Breakker quickly regained control, as he Suplexed Rollins on the outside and then proceeded to work him over.
Breakker then attempted a Spear at ringside, but Seth countered it with a Superkick. The two men barely managed to beat the 10-count, slipping into the ring at nine. Rollins tried to go for his signature Stomp, but Bron caught his leg and showcased his strength via military press.
Rollins responded with a BuckleBomb, only to be taken down by a thundering Clothesline. Bron followed it up with a Jumping Clothesline onto the commentary table. Rollins responded with a Superplex, which Bron countered with a Falcon Arrow for another near fall.
Bron followed it up with a Frankensteiner but Rollins landed on his feet and followed it up with a couple of Superkicks, a Pedigree, and a Stomp. However, Heyman distracted the referee to prevent the pinfall. This led to Logan Paul and Austin Theory appearing at ringside. However, Rollins took them out with a steel chair. He ran back to the ring, only to eat a Spear from Breakker. After he managed to kick out, Bron went for another Spear, which Rollins countered with a Pedigree. Seth went for an Avlanche Stomp but Bron caught him with a Spear. He nailed two more vicioius Spears to put his former leader away.
