The WWE Extreme Rules event is likely going to feature some crazy moments simply because with several stipulation matches on the card that's what they're promising the fans. It's not going to be as wild as some WWE events in the past, though. That's because the company's PG rating has forced them to be a lot more careful in terms of the wild matches. There are still some physical brawls in WWE, but nothing compared to what it was. What we're here to look at today are some of WWE's wildest matches ever. What makes a match wild? A number of things do like the uses of weapons such as ladders, tables, chairs, kendo sticks and whatever else a wrestler can get his hands on. Blood certainly helps. Visible pain comes to mind too. There are two names you're going to see several times during this feature: Mick Foley and Edge. They were both notorious for putting their bodies on the line in some crazy matches. Not surprisingly, both men had to retire earlier in their careers too. Perhaps we should call that a cause and effect kind of thing. Without some of those crazy moments they would have had longer careers, but those wild matches also made them legends. These are all matches where performers did some incredible things to either get cheered or booed by the audience while probably earning a "holy s**t" or "this is awesome" chant along the way too. We can't expect every match in wrestling to be wild, but when they are they sure stay with us for a long time. Here's a look back at ten of the wildest matches in WWE history.
