Details On WWE Taping Backlash In Advance

Backlash won't be live

It turns out that this year’s WWE Backlash pay-per-view event will not be live. 

Instead, WWE taped the show on Sunday in Orlando, Florida at the WWE Performance Center. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reports that WWE brought in Performance Center recruits this morning to film the show. 

As of this writing, there’s no word yet on whether WWE has any cinematic elements planned for the show. 

Once filming was done for the show, WWE sent the recruits to Winter Park, Florida at Full Sail University in order to be there for the live NXT TakeOver: In Your House special. 

It was added that the recruits had a call time at 8:30 AM and expected to be working until midnight.

WWE presents the Backlash pay-per-view event on Sunday, June 14, 2020 in Orlando, Florida at the WWE Performance Center that will air on the WWE Network.
