It's a week away and no stipulations announced yet?

Reigns - Balor is now an Extreme Rules match. I guess they're trying to protect the Demon by having him lose to interference, most likely the USOs.

CastorTroy · 25-09-2021 10:15am

Becky and Bianca match is also Extreme Rules.

Remember when nearly every match had some stipulation? I guess now they have separate PPVS for each type of match.

Only other one I guess would be the Triple Threat since it's basically no DQ.

Basically no DQ is right because it seems a recommendation not a rule in triple threat matches because the ref calls for rope breaks and guys let go for some stupid reason.

JP Liz V1 · 25-09-2021 10:11pm

Is Big E vs. Bobby rematch happening or is Randy still in the scene?

CastorTroy · 25-09-2021 10:25pm

No Bobby vs Big E. 4 Smackdown and 2 Raw matches. Probably be a Raw match on the preshow.

Universal Champion Championship (Extreme Rules)

Roman Reigns (c) vs. “The Demon” Finn Bálor

Raw Women’s Championship

Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Alexa Bliss

SmackDown Women’s Championship (Extreme Rules)

Becky Lynch (c) vs. Bianca Belair

United States Championship

Damian Priest (c) vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Sheamus

SmackDown Tag Team Championship Match

The Usos (c) vs. The Street Profits

Liv Morgan vs. Carmella

PTH2009 · 26-09-2021 1:27pm

Hopefully Denon Finn comes out well from the match tonight. Maybe Usos costing him which then creates a crazy heel Finn Balor recking havok

12am- pre show

1am-4am- main show

J. Marston · 26-09-2021 2:44pm

Would it have killed them to throw a cage or ladder match into the "Extreme Rules" PPV? The US title match could've been a great ladder match.

riffmongous · 26-09-2021 5:16pm

It's just so lazy from WWE, if you don't want to have any special matches fine, just change the name of the event before you start marketing it

In their defence there’s a good chance the PPV will be extremely crappy.

Jeff bumping from a ladder is a ppv must

J. Marston · 26-09-2021 8:21pm

Nothing of interest really in that PPV.

The triple threat badly needed a gimmick attached.

Roman/Finn should be decent but the result is without doubt.

Charlotte/Bliss will have hocus pocus nonsense.

Becky/Bianca has been getting good reviews from live shows so it should be good. Becky's best matches tend to hardcore matches.

But the rest is a whole lot of nothing. Liv Morgan vs Carmella getting a match says it all about the quality of this PPV.

orecir · 26-09-2021 9:34pm

Either Brock costs Reigns the title tonight or he just lays out both men for the match to end in a no contest.

JP Liz V1 · 27-09-2021 12:23am

No WWE world title match, great faith in Big E and way to start his reign, it really is all about Reigns

Added a new match to kick off the show

New day vs Lashley/Styles and Omos

PTH2009 · 27-09-2021 1:30am

Styles hitting the ropes there by mistake

PTH2009 · 27-09-2021 1:51am

Bold language there by Bobby

The Bollocks · 27-09-2021 2:02am

Wheres the hardcore matches?

Wheres the chairshots?

Wheres the barbed wire,the thumb tacks?

Wheres the mad bastard bumps?

Wheres the blood and the weapons?

Extreme Rules my bollocks.

Load of shite

PTH2009 · 27-09-2021 2:41am

Great match

PTH2009 · 27-09-2021 3:28am

The Demon does look coll tbf

The Bollocks · 27-09-2021 3:34am

The Demon looks like a shite copy of The Boogyman.

Reigns will drop the bleedin title tonight so scumbag Lesnar wins the bullshit match in Saudi.

Lesnar will disappear and Reigns will reclaim his title off Balor soon after that shitshow.

Load of shite.

PTH2009 · 27-09-2021 3:50am

Wtf, wrestlecrap at its finest

The Demon going mental was good but the ropes breaking was dumb

The Bollocks · 27-09-2021 3:52am

Load of shite. Extreme Rules my bollocks

Agent Coulson · 27-09-2021 4:44am

Seeing on Twitter that Roman put on a mask before going into the crowd, That is bad ass I have to say.

orecir · 27-09-2021 8:46am

Reings putting on the mask in the crowd is top heel stuff.

The big dawg is the best thing in all of wrestling and done more for balor in one night than finn has done in his whole career.

Overall a decent ppv.

WWE has ruined Balor now, they're using him to put over their poster boys as they know Balor has credibility. They've destroyed the Demon gimmick and now he's been beaten well by Reigns twice he'll enjoy mid-card hell until his contract runs out.

Overall that was a poor PPV from WWE, Tag match being the best match of the night.

CastorTroy · 27-09-2021 9:57am

I had seen on wiki that the Bianca/Becky match was meant to be Extreme Rules. Guess that was wrong. If they want Becky as heel, why pass out "The Man" signs? Unless that was someone else who made them and passed them out.

Are they going for the Miro style "God's chosen one" for Roman?

I noticed one of the fans had a thing for Disney with his signs.

Now what happens Alexa? Become even more like The Fiend and start wearing Lily's face to the ring?

Vince never lost the hard on for putting Reigns over at the expense of everyone else.

But Heel Reigns was such a great character, people forgave it for a while.

But now we are heading back to Roman vs Brock, and there’s still no end game in sight for the Reigns character. You need to build a top baby face simultaneously to capitalise on a top level heel like that, but WWE don’t have one now. Big E felt like he could be it, but they’ve switched him to Raw and given him the rub there. Balor could have been it last night but he’s dead now (beaten by a faulty rope, amazingly).

i just don’t see an endgame anymore for this title run.

ive never seen an ending to a show switch form utterly amazing to utter wrestlecrap so quickly.

J. Marston · 27-09-2021 10:35am

Put the foam tablet under your tongue, Alexa.

Also, during the match introductions they announced Charlotte and where she is from and for Alexa they just announced her name and nothing else....in her hometown. They have her lose in her hometown and they don't even give the audience the fun of a hometown pop. Needlessly petty.

I feel like Sasha has returned and attacked someone half a dozen times in the last 2 years. Who cares.

RollieFingers · 27-09-2021 10:37am

Just saw the Balor rope spot and Alexa and her tablet on Twitter. More grade A wrestlecrap from the sports entertainment company.

I think Drew may be heading to SD but is he over enough as a face, they messed up Big E sending him to Raw, the only ones getting decent crowd reactions imho is Hardy and Riddle

I assume Reigns will hold until maybe Jey Uso turns and gets a chance, as much as I am enjoying face lumberjack viking Brock will he be around full time with the title if he wins

LineOfBeauty · 27-09-2021 2:31pm

A disaster show from start to finish. A glorified mid level Raw with a main event result that was never in doubt due to the advertised Lesnar/Reigns match.

2 matches, main event included, with spooky nonsense and as dumb a close to a ppv as you will ever see. WCW 2000 was never this bad.

An easy contender for worst show of the year. Dud.

super_furry · 27-09-2021 2:35pm

That's me done for a good while. Cancelled my Network sub and I can't really see them making me regret that decision over the next few years.

Even when they nearly stumble onto something good, they immediately kill in with there nonsense.

Instead RKBro should have defended the Raw tag titles against New Day and Styles Omos

ThePott · 27-09-2021 8:05pm

*sigh

There was some decent matches on the card, that were kinda fun. 6-Man was okay but totally disposable, big House show vibes for me. Usos/Street Profits was fine if a bit lacklustre. I actually liked the Charlotte/Alexa match until whatever that thing with the tablet was. Seems Alexa is gone for a while so please say this gimmick disappears now. Priest/Hardy/Sheamus might actually be match of the night because it was a good match that had an ending. For most people though this was a two-match show at best. Becky/Bianca and Reigns/Balor.

Becky and Bianca was a really great match but people are gonna only look at the ending. Sasha returns, at this point we get this segment every few months. Have a feeling we'll get a triple threat on Smackdown before some of them get drafted. They totally ruined what came before with that ending but it's getting overlooked because of the main event.

A lot of people are tired of Balor, I really like him. I like the Demon. I even liked the 'resurrection' thing (it's a supernatural wrestling character, it's fine) but you do this whole big moment with his music blaring and what feels like it will be a something worthwhile and the rope breaks, spear and pin. When people say WWE doesn't respect it's audience, this is exactly what they mean. Why build up a moment like that only to immediately spoil it. How come the Demon survived a beating and going through a barricade but falling from the top rope and a spear put him away. Now when it comes to the rope I assume it will be revealed Heyman did something but even still, a finish like this does nothing but piss off your audience and I gotta agree that it's come to the point that everything is held up for the Tribal Chief story which I enjoy but it doesn't look like there's a clear end in sight.

They somehow keep topping themselves. Nice of 'em to go out of the way to shut down any mystique with the replay. 😉

Enjoyed the PPV for the most part but spent the main event waiting for the other foot to drop - poo de grace? - since I learnt my lesson about the Saudi pre-shows when teh Fiend lost to teh cartoon hammer.

Agent Coulson · 28-09-2021 5:46pm

Just looking at the ring rope break Balor was lucky he didn't hurt himself from it the fall looked very awkward and could have been a very bad bump.

Terry · 28-09-2021 7:21pm

The whole Balor thing was worse than the finger poke of doom.

At least they were upfront about that one.

PTH2009 · 29-09-2021 3:16pm

Yeah and we'll be told 'forget about it' as they will have no valid justification for what happened

If they didn't fire Bray Wyatt they could of made a fiend vs demon storyline out of it

Ridley · 01-10-2021 7:16am

Was the divine intervention not enough?
