Randy Orton is front and center on WWE’s promotional material for Backlash 2025.

Backlash will take place at the Enterprise Center in Orton’s hometown of St. Louis on Saturday, May 10. Paul “Triple H” Levesque revealed the official poster for the PLE on social media today, with Orton in the featured spot.

It remains to be seen who Orton will be facing at Backlash — and his plans for WrestleMania 41 this weekend are still unannounced after his scheduled opponent, Kevin Owens, had to be pulled from the card due to a neck injury. Orton is still expected to have a match at night two of WrestleMania.

Orton and John Cena are the first two wrestlers advertised for Backlash. With Cena set to retire from in-ring competition in December, this will be his last Backlash. He could be defending the Undisputed WWE Championship at the show if he wins the title from Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania.

Retirement isn’t something that’s on Orton’s mind at the moment. The 45 year old signed a new five-year WWE contract in 2024 and recently told Complex that he would love to sign another five-year deal after that.

The start time for Backlash is listed as 7 p.m. Eastern. It will stream live on Peacock in the United States and Netflix globally.
