WWE Extreme Rules: After Money in the Bank in July and Summerslam in August, WWE has announced its next PPV event i.e., WWE Extreme Rules, scheduled for September 26. Last year Extreme Rules took place as ‘The Horror Show’ on July 19, 2020, with the cinematic bout Bray Wyatt vs. Braun Strowman headlining the PPV event.
As WWE continues to get back to pre-COVID normalcy, this would be their third PPV event in a row to take place outside the Thunderdome. WWE Extreme Rules 2021 will be taking place at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

WWE Extreme Rules: Becky Lynch vs. Bianca Belair almost set for the PPV
Bianca Belair has earned her opportunity for a rematch against Becky Lynch for the Smackdown Women’s Championship. The former Smackdown Women’s Champion defeated Carmella, Liv Morgan, and Zelina Vega in a Fatal 4-way Elimination Match in the post-Summerslam edition of Smackdown. The two are speculated to collide on September 26 at the Extreme Rules PPV.
