WWE continues to build the card for the upcoming WrestleMania Backlash premium live event. It was previously announced that Charlotte Flair would defend the SmackDown Women’s Championship against Ronda Rousey in an I Quit match. Cody Rhodes will also take on Seth Rollins in another WrestleMania 38 rematch. Today, WWE announced another addition to the show.

Bianca Belair will take on Sonya Deville for the Raw Women’s Championship. Sonya attacked Bianca on this week’s Raw. Now, Bianca is out for revenge.

Belair defeated Becky Lynch at WrestleMania to regain the title she lost when Becky returned at SummerSlam last year. Bianca had huge celebration, as her birthday fell right after Mania. Montez Ford even gifted Belair a boat.

Sonya Deville’s position as an authority figure in WWE adds some intrigue to the matchup. Bianca will be playing the fan-favorite who has to take on the corporate machine. It’s a classic WWE storyline that will now play out at Backlash.
