WWE Extreme Rules 2021: 10 Things That Must Happen
10. The US Title Three Way Opens
There are a few matches on the card that feel a bit TV-ish. To explain, a triple threat like Damian Priest vs. Sheamus vs. Jeff Hardy sounds like something WWE would announce for Raw on the night, but it's here and it's on pay-per-view prime time.
It needs to open the show, at least.
Fans in Ohio will pop if Jeff's 'No More Words' track blares over the speakers and he emerges for a crack at Priest's title (and possibly another crack at Sheamus' nose). That's not to say that Hardy should win the belt this weekend - he shouldn't. In fact, it's pretty important for Damo's push that he's the one who scores a strong win.
Ideally, he'll pin Sheamus to draw a line under their issues and move on to something else. WWE could even have Karrion 'I Hate Charismatic Enigmas Despite Being One' Kross come out to cost Jeff the chance to become champion. Y'know, if they haven't forgotten about that mini-feud already.
