For months, Randy Orton and The Legacy (Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase) terrorized Triple H’s extended family, all in an effort to aide The Legend Killer in his quest to win The Game’s WWE Title at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania. The WWE Champion rebuffed Orton’s challenge, but over the months leading up to The Greatest Spectacle in Entertainment, their rivalry grew far too personal to be settled with a single match. At Backlash, two factions with deep-seated enmity for one another will meet as WWE Champion Triple H, Batista & Shane McMahon take on Randy Orton & The Legacy, with The Game’s WWE Title at stake.

The night after the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania saw a bitter Orton take to the ring, incensed over his loss to Triple H. As he railed against the manner in which The Game obtained victory, the venomous Superstar was interrupted by the man he had incapacitated with a brutal punt, Mr. McMahon himself. The WWE Chairman denied Orton’s request for a rematch and instead placed him in another contest at Backlash, where The Legend Killer & The Legacy would go up against McMahon, his son Shane & his son-in-law, WWE Champion Triple H. Orton continued to hurl invective at his employer, prompting the WWE Chairman to place himself in a match against Orton later in the night.

Later in the evening, Vickie Guerrero announced that during the Six-Man Tag Team Match, the WWE Title would be on the line. Raw’s new GM clarified that if anyone from Triple H’s team won the match, he would retain the title, but if Orton or his cohorts tasted victory, then The Legend Killer would become the new WWE Champion. Whether because Orton was right about his employer, or the viper-like Superstar’s underhanded tactics were just too devious, things didn’t go well for Mr. McMahon.

As The Legacy joined their leader in the ring, The Legend Killer prepared to deliver another sadistic punt to the WWE Chairman’s head. Though both Shane McMahon and Triple H attempted to stop the cruel act, it was the returning Batista who was able to defend his employer, chasing the multi-generational Superstars from the ring. After The Animal’s shocking appearance, McMahon revised the match once again, replacing himself with Batista.

Though Randy Orton might not be taking place in the match he wanted, he will have another opportunity to obtain the WWE Title at Backlash, as he and The Legacy take part in a Six-Man Tag Team Match. But with Shane O’Mac and the returning Batista at WWE Champion Triple H’s side, will even Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase be enough to turn the odds in Orton’s favor?

I don't mind the concept normally but this screams "made so HHH doesn't have to job to Orton but lose the belt to him".

I fucking hate the concept! A singles belt is just that. It should never be defended as part of a tag match. Ever. This is a waste of space, and a waste of Legacy in general.

A Three on Three Tag Match for the WWE championship is unnecessary and not smart. Make the damn match a Triple Threat match if we're having three main eventers in this match. Be more creative WWE.

RaiZ-R · 04-12-2009, 11:17 PM

Only Orton or Triple H can win the title though... No matter who pins who. Making the tag stipulation even less necessary. Gah!

Maybe just maybe they can have Batista turn on Hunter and cost him the belt to make it a triple threat at Judgmentday.
We all know that wont happen but I can dream can't I?

Couldn't agree more. I used to defend the hell out of HHH when people commented on his backstage politics, but I'm getting sick of this. Either HHH loses the titles without being pinned, which sets up a rematch and his 14th title reign, or HHH wins and we have to endure more of his shit. Either way HHH wins and Randy loses.

Also by adding Batista it makes Randy's team look like a joke, however team Orton will probably win. I'm guessing Orton gets the pin on Shane while Legacy has Batista and HHH outside the ring.

Also lol@Batista being thrown in this whole mess.

Its tough to look at this as anything but Triple H getting protected.

All good points but the one positive thing that I think could happen to Legacy is that if they do win, I think they will, it will make them look like an even stronger faction. They can always bring up the fact that they beat HHH and Batista, maybe even pin one of them depending on how the match goes.
