WWE have added another championship match to this Sunday's Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

SmackDown tag champs The New Day will go up against the tandem of Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura in a tables match, as confirmed on last night's episode of SmackDown.

After the Swiss Superman defeated Big E with the Neutralizer, he and Nakamura were given the choice to challenge for Kofi and his defeated partner in either a tables or steel cage match. The pretenders picked what might be called the soft option.

Nakamura and Cesaro made a tilt at the blue straps just last week, but it fell apart when all four men got involved in the ring, resulting in a disqualification.

This Sunday's Extreme Rules 2020 card is now as follows:

He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
