WWE Intercontinental title match added to Backlash 2025

The Intercontinental title will be defended this Saturday at Backlash as champion Dominik Mysterio will take on Penta.

This is the second one-on-one match between the two as they already went head-to-head on the Raw After Mania in another title match, a match which Mysterio won after interference from Judgment Day.

This is the fifth match announced for Backlash, four of which are for a title.

Mysterio has been champion since WrestleMania 41, winning the title in a fatal four-way match which also included then-champion Bron Breakker, Penta, and Finn Balor.
