According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Extreme Rules will be the next PPV event after Backlash and Money in the Bank. That event will be taking place on July 18th.

WWE will hold their 2021 Extreme Rules PPV on Sunday 7/18, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

The PPV is slated to broadcast from The Thunderdome.

My Take:

  • Extreme Rules is always a solid PPV. It is not my favorite of the year but always seems to produce a few fun matches.
