WWE Extreme Rules 2018: Full Match Card, How To Watch
By Bryan Heaton
Raw and SmackDown team up for WWE Extreme Rules 2018 this Sunday. Here’s the final match card, plus information on how to watch the event live!
We’ve made it to the night where WWE takes its rule book and throws it out the window. WWE Extreme Rules 2018 is upon us, emanating from PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh. The Steel City should be prepared for things to get wild on Sunday.
As with all pay per views in WWE now, Extreme Rules is a co-branded show. The superstars of Raw and SmackDown will come together to put rivalries to rest, battle for championships, and cut loose with lax rules.
Including the Kickoff Show, WWE has a dozen matches on the docket. A criticism of Extreme Rules in recent years has been a lack of matches featuring the title stipulation. It’s a valid gripe, as this year there’s only one match being contested under “extreme rules.”
Another complaint sure to happen this year? The likely main event — Roman Reigns vs. Bobby Lashley. I’ve been hearing rumblings from friends and family already regarding this match going on last, but we’ll have to wait and see where The Big Dog ends up on the card.
There are a quartet of matches featuring other stipulations, though. WWE is busting out the steel cage, and plenty of tables should meet their demise. Of course, there’s also going to be a shark cage, so it may not all be good.
We’ve had a ton of pieces surrounding this year’s Extreme Rules, ranging from staff predictions to reasons why one superstar or another should pick up a victory. There’s even been pieces about who actually needs a win at Extreme Rules. So make sure you check out all our Extreme Rules coverage, too!
