Top Matches Advertised For ‘Extreme Rules’
This week’s episode of WWE Raw took place in Philadelphia, and according to PWInsider, during the show the following matches were announced for the Extreme Rules PPV taking place on July 14th in Philly.
-Roman Reigns vs. Baron Corbin
-Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre
As always, WWE event cards are subject to change, so it is possible the above two matches could change by the time the PPV rolls around. The Extreme Rules PPV is typically a hardcore themed event, and with The Shield set to take on Corbin, McIntyre and Lashley at Fastlane, and with Dean Ambrose expected to be leaving WWE in April, it’s possible the advertised Extreme Rules bouts could get stipulations.
‘SNL’ Stars Appearing At ‘WrestleMania’
It was also announced on Raw this week that Saturday Night Live stars and Weekend Update hosts Michael Che and Colin Jost will serve as correspondents at WrestleMania 35.
Following a run-in with Braun Strowman on Raw, Colin Jost might have to contend with The Monster Among Men at WrestleMania, as WWE teased a possible confrontation, Tweeting, “Good news: Colin Jost is OK. Bad news: He’ll run into Braun Strowman again at WrestleMania.”
