Tiffany Stratton has dazzled the audience so far with her conduct and is already on her way to being the future of WWE’s women’s division. The Center of the Universe finds herself battling for the WWE Women’s Championship in a triple-threat match against Naomi and Bayley at WWE Backlash France.

Tiffany Stratton proved her mettle to the WWE Universe with her feud with Becky Lynch, a strong debut in the Women’s Royal Rumble match, and impressive performance inside the Elimination Chamber, with her popularity skyrocketing off the roof. Therefore, it is a very real possibility that we might see The Buff Barbie capturing the gold at WWE Backlash France in a major upset.
2. Jacob Fatu debuts at WWE Backlash France
The Bloodline storyline has carried WWE for the last few years, with incredible twists and turns, manipulating the story at the right place and time. Furthermore, WrestleMania 40 saw a major turn of events for The Bloodline after Roman Reigns lost his Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes in the main event of the show with The Tribal Chief’s return to WWE remaining uncertain for the time being.
Meanwhile, Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa are dominating the scene in Reigns’s absence and as speculated, we could see Jacob Fatu, another member of the family who signed with WWE recently, finally join The Bloodline by running interference in their match against Randy Orton and Kevin Owens at WWE Backlash France.
3. Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair fail as a dominant team
WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships are on the line at WWE Backlash France as the reigning champions, Asuka and Kairi Sane, are set to defend their coveted championships against the dominant duo of The Storm, Jade Cargill, and The EST of WWE, Bianca Belair.
This is one the most highly anticipated matches on the show and many fans are expecting Cargill and Belair to walk away with the gold in France. However, one major twist that can see the champions and other Damage CTRL members, IYO Sky and Dakota Kai play the numbers games and use underhanded tactics to derail their momentum, causing Cargill and Belair to lose in a huge shocker.
4. The New Bloodline rekindles their rivalry with Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes is set to defend his Undisputed WWE Championship in a dream matchup against The Phenomenal One, AJ Styles in a highly anticipated dream match. While Rhodes is not expected to lose this early in his title reign that began after a captivating two-year-long narrative, a major shocker can happen at the end of the bout.
As Cody would raise his hand in victory, we could very well see The New Bloodline, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and possibly Jacob Fatu as well as attacking him for the downfall of their Tribal Chief Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40. This could set the tone for another Cody Rhodes and Bloodline rivalry to take center stage moving forward on SmackDown.
