WWE Extreme Rules: 8 Match Predictions

In this week's Wrestling Observer newsletter, it was stated that the term "pay-per-view" will be no more in WWE since the network is firmly in place in the United States now. We have used the "PPV" term for nearly 30 years now, but now they're going to be called special events. The next special event on the WWE calendar is the annual Extreme Rules show. It's an event that in the past has seen every match on the card use some kind of stipulation while other years only the top matches had a stipulation. While there's no telling what WWE might plan for the May 4th event in terms of stipulations, we do know enough about current feuds to try to put together a lineup for the show. It's the first Special Event where Daniel Bryan is walking into the match as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. There are a lot of contenders for his title from Randy Orton, who might get his rematch there, to Batista and even Triple H. Add in The Shield's involvement Could a Wargames match be in the works? It doesn't seem likely. What does seem possible is a very strong eight match card that if booked right could be an awesome Special Event. We're definitely going to have to get used to that term. Here's a look at eight matches that we could see at Extreme Rules this year.
