Post-Backlash Fallout: Jacob Fatu Escalates Feud With Roman Reigns On WWE Raw
Following the world title match at WWE Backlash, Jacob Fatu attacked Roman Reigns, while Oba Femi secured a double challenge victory and Iyo Sky defeated Sol Ruca in Knoxville.
WWE Raw aired from the Food City Center in Knoxville, Tennessee, on 11 May 2026, delivering a broadcast defined by post-match violence and chaotic outcomes following the WWE Backlash 2026 event. The primary focus of the evening was the aftermath of the world title match, where Jacob Fatu targeted Roman Reigns immediately after the bout concluded.
In a display of sustained aggression, Jacob Fatu refused to acknowledge Reigns, opting instead to destroy him for the second time in three nights. The confrontation escalated with a running hip attack that sent Reigns through the barricade, followed by a Tongan Death Grip lock-up that required officials to intervene before Fatu secured the victory with another running hip attack through the barricade.
Elsewhere on the card, Oba Femi secured a double challenge by defeating Angel and Berto. Although WWE officials attempted to cancel the bout due to a lack of interest, Femi went backstage to force the match. He defeated both opponents using shotput moves and finished Berto with a Fall From Grace to claim the win.
The women's division saw Iyo Sky defeat Sol Ruca in a competitive bout that featured nearfalls for both competitors. Sky avoided a Sol Snatcher attempt from Ruca and secured the victory by rolling up her opponent. The match included a nearfall for Ruca via Blue Thunder Bomb and a nearfall for Sky via double-foot stomp.
In tag team action, The Street Profits and Joe Hendry defeated The Vision in a six-man tag team match that devolved outside the ring. Seth Rollins distracted Bron Breakker, allowing Angelo Dawkins to roll up Austin Theory for the win. Following the conclusion of the match, Rollins and the Street Profits made amends after weeks of tensions.
Additional results included Je'Von Evans defeating Rusev and Ethan Page, where Evans won with an OG Cutter after selling a back injury. Dominik Mysterio also emerged victorious against El Grande Americano, utilizing a 619 and a Frog Splash to overcome interference from Los Americanos.
