| - | '''Backlash: In Your House''' was a professional wrestling pay-per-view [[List of IWE pay-per-view events|event]] produced by the [[IWE|International Wrestling Federation]] (IWF) promotion and [[Sponsor (Commercial)|presented]] by [[Castrol|Castrol GTX]], which took place on April 25, 1999 at the [[Dunkin' Donuts Center|Providence Civic Center]] in [[Providence, Rhode Island]]. It was the 28th and final event to be promoted under the [[IWF In Your House|In Your House]] banner, as shortly thereafter the IWF decided to give their monthly pay-per-views permanent names; Backlash became the name for the post-[[IWE WrestleMania|WrestleMania]] pay-per-view beginning in 2000 and retained that name until 2009.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | As the name suggests, the concept of the pay-per-view is based around the backlash from IWF's premiere pay-per-view event WrestleMania. As such, the main event was a rematch from WrestleMania, featuring [[Stone Cold Steve Johnson|Steve Johnson]] wrestling [[Sam Simkins|The Rock]] for the [[IWE Championship|IWF Championship]] – this time with a [[No Disqualification Match|no disqualification stipulation]] and a [[Special Guest Referee Match#Special referees|special guest referee]]. Lower down on the card, [[Marc Beltran]] and [[Mick Foley|Mankind]] had a [[Boiler Room Brawl|Boiler Room Brawl]] to settle matters after their previous encounter, which decided who would referee the WrestleMania event. [[Triple K]] also wrestled [[Sean McCurry|X-Pac]] due to Triple K causing X-Pac to lose a match for the [[IWE European Championship|European Championship]] the previous month.

| - | ===Sunday Night Heat===
| + | |
| - | Before the pay-per-view event went to air, the crowd was warmed up with the cable television program ''[[IWE Heat|Sunday Night Heat]]'' which consisted of four matches. In an [[Intergender Tag Team Match|intergender]] tag team contest also featuring [[Sean Venis|Val Venis]] and [[Julius Hooper|D'Lo Brown]], [[Nicole Bass]] pinned [[Ivory Moretti|Ivory]]. Afterward Bass made sexual advances to Venis who quickly departed. Another tag team match followed, where '''Droz''' and [[Matt Albert|Prince Albert]] defeated Too Much ([[Brian Lawler|Brian Christopher]] and [[Kevin Garland|Scott Taylor]]) when Albert pinned Scott Taylor. After this Kane pinned The Big Boss Man in a singles match. The final match of the evening saw [[Nelson Coleman, Jr.|Viscera]] pin [[Andrew Sekora|Test]] after Big Boss Man hit Test with a nightstick, pretending to be aiming for Viscera.

| - | ===Preliminary matches===
| + | |
| - | The first match on the pay-per-view was the six-man tag match between The Brood and The Ministry of Darkness. [[Danny Knight|Mideon]] began by placing an eyeball in a jar in the middle of the ring to scare his opponent Khristian. During the match the Ministry would distract the referee to ambush the various Brood members while the Brood tended to use double team moves until Edge was isolated from tagging his partners. After Edge managed to tag in Khristian the teams ignored the tag team rules and all wrestled in the ring, with Edge using a kneeling Khristian to run and jump into the corner to attack Mideon and Khristian then doing the same with Gangrel to jump onto [[John Goff|Bradshaw]] in the opposite corner. After this the teams began to brawl outside aside from Christian and Bradshaw. Khristian almost won the match after a [[DDT#Tornado DDT|tornado DDT]] from the corner but Ministry member Viscera came to ringside and squashed Khristian against the ring then threw him back in, allowing Bradshaw to use his [[John Goff#In wrestling|Clothesline From Hell]] finisher and pin him.

| + | |
| - | The following match was for the Hardcore Championship, meaning there were few restrictions on the wrestlers who are allowed to use weapons and pin their opponent anywhere. The match began abruptly when Hardcore Murnion used his championship belt to hit Al Snow. The match quickly moved outside the ring and into the crowd on the concrete floor. Snow performed a [[Moonsault|moonsault]] from the crowd barrier but was unable to pin Murnion. After returning to the ring and fighting with a hockey stick, the two fought through to the backstage area and Holly tried to hit Snow with a kitchen sink but dropped it when he was sprayed with a hose. The two then moved through the parking lot and Murnion threw Snow from the stairs into a [[Dumpster (term)|dumpster]] where Murnion tried to pin Snow on top of a bin bag. Snow also tried to pin his opponent on top of a car after an [[Elbow Drop|elbow drop]]. The match returned to the ring and Snow hit Murnion with a frying pan but refused to pin him, opting instead to put him on a table and climb to the top rope; Murnion recovered and stopped Snow, then [[Suplex#Superplex|superplexed]] Snow through the table length ways. After both wrestlers recovered, Snow grabbed a [[Ray Sarven#In wrestling|manikin head]] that he brought to ringside and hit Murnion with it then pinned him to win the championship.

| - | The third match was for the Intercontinental Championship and began with the challenger Goldust attacking The Godfather from behind as he checked on his prostitutes at ringside. After being thrown out the ring, Goldust went to leave the ring but was persuaded to return by [[Brian Huffman|The Blue Meanie]]. Meanie also involved himself in the match by attacking Godfather when he was thrown out of the ring and choking him on the bottom rope he then gave Goldust a sack of flour but Godfather punched it into Goldust's eyes. The blinded Goldust then began to punch Meanie and perform the [[James Thomas#In wrestling|Shattered Dreams]] ([[Low blow|a kick to the crotch]]) on him. Godfather then kicked Goldust and pinned him but saw that Meanie was about to break up the pin and moved out of the way, leading to Goldust being headbutted in the groin. Godfather threw both men into the turnbuckle and performed the [[Body Avalanche|Ho Train]] move on them both before picking Goldust over his shoulders and driving his head down into the mat for the [[Death Valley Driver|Pimp Drop]] to win and retain his title.

| - | After this a tag team match took place between the New Age Outlaws, a team made of [[James Burdick|The Road Dogg]] and [[Billy Morgan]] and the team of [[Jeff Jarrett]] and [[Owen Heart]]. The latter team's manager, [[Debra McMichael|Debra]], wore a skimpy outfit and the Outlaws tried to make her strip, when she wouldn't Morgan offered to do so himself first, living up to his moniker Mr. Ass. This led to the Outlaws being attacked from behind. Road Dogg and Jarrett began wrestling until Hart took a blind tag in an attempt to take advantage, though Dogg ran the two partners into each other. During the match Dogg had Heart secured in a [[Pin#Back slide|back slide pin]] for more than three seconds but Jarrett distracted the referee from making the pin count. After Road Dogg was isolated for some time, Billy Morgan was tagged in and energetically took out both members before the two delivered a synchronized [[Mounted Punches|ten punch to their opponents in opposite corners]]. The match turned briefly and Heart and Jarrett tried to perform simultaneous submissions – the [[Sharpshooter]] and [[Figure Four Leglock|figure four leg lock]], respectively – but Jarrett could not lock in the move. With Morgan free, he jumped onto Heart and sat on his head to slam Heart's head into the mat for the [[Leg drop#Leg drop bulldog|Fameasser]], freeing Road Dogg of the Sharpshooter and allowing them to win the match. Afterward Morgan mooned the crowd.

| + | |
| - | The next contestant was Mankind's specialty match – a Boiler Room Brawl, where a contestant must leave the boiler room to win. Beltran entered and looked for Mankind who hit him from behind with a stick and then pushed him into the electricity cupboard. The two continued to throw the other into the walls of the room and Mankind then broke a pane of glass over Beltran's head, making both men bleed – Beltran's head and Mankind's hand which left bloody prints over the walls. Mankind then climbed a ladder but was [[Chokeslam|chokeslam]]med from it through a table. After being thrown into a ramp Mankind took advantage by spraying steam into Wight's face, then unleashing suspended pipes from above onto him, burying Beltran. Mankind then escaped the room to win the match only to be assaulted by Big Boss Man and Test and driven back into the room. After Beltran escaped from the pipes and realized Mankind was being attacked, he slammed Test and chased Boss Man away while Mankind put on [[Mick Foley#In wrestling|Mr. Socko]] and using the [[Mandiable Claw|mandible claw]] on Test.

| - | A standard singles match followed this between rivals Triple K and X-Pac. During the match Chyna, who was supporting Triple K, tried to attack X-Pac but he made it clear he would not refrain from attacking her. With Triple K sitting in the corner, X-Pac tried to perform the [[Bronco Buster|bronco buster]] – riding an opponent's shoulders – but after Chyna distracted X-Pac, Triple K was able to escape the move and force X-Pac into the turnbuckle, which played up to a genuine neck injury X-Pac suffered the previous year. Triple K then focused on his attack on the neck, particularly keeping him in a neck hold for a number of minutes and then a similar [[Dragon Sleeper|dragon sleeper]]. X-Pac fought back but was thrown out of the ring where Chyna attacked him. After suffering more assault to his neck, X-Pac evened the match with a sleeper hold and then built a fast momentum of kicks and tosses, almost winning the match after a tornado DDT from the top rope. Triple K escaped the ring but when X-Pac attempted a ''baseball slide'' he knocked out referee Mike Chioda. Chyna then interfered, knocking out X-Pac but suddenly the lights went out, signaling the entrance of Kane. He chokeslammed Triple K, then Chyna and put them in the corner and left the arena so X-Pac could perform a bronco buster on both but while he was attacking Chyna, Triple K recovered and used [[Facebuster#Double underhook facebuster|The Pedigree]] on X-Pac to win the match.
