HAHA WE'RE ABOUT TO GET EXTEREME WITH THE TOYS OUT MAGGLE!!!

 

[GWBogan]

One-on-one Extreme Rules match? Pfft... I'm not convinced that is enough to make Roman Reigns strong. I think the only way to make Roman Reigns strong is for him to go over against AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson and the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls in a handicap Extreme Rules match set at Stoke on a cold and rainy Tuesday evening.

Surely Balor debuts here... surely...

Rumours hes being kept off TV for a bit to heal up long standing niggly injuries.

 

[Brick Loosener]

Has rematch with Joe too.

A lot of NXT talent move up to the main roster before having one last NXT rematch or farewell. Like Sasha Banks.

You could still have it happen without him wrestling necessarily. Just hit a Bloody Sunday/1916 on AJ or whoever and then have Gallows and Anderson be the muscle til he is fit.

Well aware of that. With the rematch and his "injuries" maybe they'll save him a bit?

 

[Cleavy]

Save us, Balor (or Rollins)!

Like Payback, Extreme Rules should be pretty good from a wrestling point of view.

What happens in terms of characters, storylines and booking is another matter entirely.

Agreed. Main event and the IC title match should be good.

will be fine as long as McMahon-mania is kept to the bare minimum.

No chance. No chance in hell.

Dream scenario.

Balor debuts at Extreme rules, helps AJ win the title. Balor wins MITB, tension builds between Finn and AJ until SummerSlam. Balor cashes in and kicks AJ out the Club, which is now the Balor Club.

Usos vs Gallows/Anderson in a Tornado Match.

Usos vs Gallows/Anderson in a Tornado Match.

Curb stomp approaching.

 

[Cleavy]

at least it should mean that Gallows/Anderson finally win a match? seems like they lose on every show.

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

The asylum match would be cooler if the cage was the elimination chamber style cage with the square chain set instead of the normal steel cage. Would've made it a bit more unique. Right now it's just a steel cage painted black with some weapons on top. The chain would've made it look meaner too.

 

[Igloo]

Should have been one of the old school cages.
Like this one, which is very hard to find a decent picture of

Which is a great thing to do to newcomers who have been entered straight into the main event picture.

When they're newish to the wrestling scene sure.

Prediction for Charlotte vs Natalya: Referee gets knocked out as Natalya is on the cusp of victory, Charles Robinson runs out and gives Charlotte a fast count win.

That'd be a very interesting finish in a submission match.
