No DQ stipulation added to WWE title match at Backlash

A new stipulation has been added to the WWE title match at Backlash.

It was announced at the start of the show that the match would now be a no disqualification bout. This comes after the second clash between the two at the Greatest Royal Rumble last Friday ended in a double countout after Styles and Nakamura brawled outside of the ring.

This week on SmackDown, Nakamura demanded an apology from Styles over what he did on Friday. He came out and basically said that he wouldn’t. While Samoa Joe came out and cut a promo on Styles about coming for him after he beats Reigns, Nakamura snuck in from behind and low blowed him yet again, continuing the storyline that started at WrestleMania where Nakamura has repeatedly low blowed Styles at every opportunity.

WWE Backlash, a co-branded event, will take place this Sunday at the Prudential in Newark, New Jersey.
