'''Backlash''' was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event, produced every April (with the exception of 2005) by [[IWE]], a professional wrestling promotion based in Connecticut. The event was created in 1999, with its inaugural event produced as an [[In Your House]] event in April of that year. The event in 2000 was rebranded as an annual PPV event for IWE. To coincide with the [[IWE Brand Extension|brand extension]], the event was made exclusive to the [[IWE Raw|Raw]] brand in 2004. In 2007, to follow the format of [[IWE WrestleMania|WrestleMania]], all PPV events became tri-branded. The final event was held in 2009, with [[IWE Extreme Rules|Extreme Rules]] replacing Backlash in 2010.

Professional wrestling is a non-competitive professional sport, where matches are prearranged by the promotion's writing staff, and is also considered an athletic performing art, containing strong elements of catch wrestling, mock combat, and theatre. Each PPV event features several professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers are portrayed as either [[Heel|villains]] or [[Face|heroes]] in the scripted events that build tension and culminate into a wrestling match or series of matches.
