Wrestling Inc has leaked some details on how WWE's 'Swamp Fight' between Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt at Extreme Rules will work.

According to the site's sources, and as expected, the bout will be cinematic. Think WrestleMania 36's 'Boneyard' match between The Undertaker and AJ Styles, only with a little more Wyatt flavour; indeed, the match will incorporate "spots and storytelling" from Braun's past as part of The Wyatt Family, and everything will be set up in "a Bray Wyatt kind of way".

Wyatt is taking a hands on approach to creatively laying out the match, but Jeremy Borash and Triple H are also involved. That makes sense, because both those guys worked heavily on the successful 'Boneyard' epic - WWE are currently scouting ideal locations to shoot the match.

Other leaked details include the thought that this 'Swamp Fight' will be more action-heavy than 'Mania's 'Firefly Fun House' silliness between Bray and John Cena, and that it'll be a "cross between The Terminator and a horror movie".

That explains the 'Horror Show' tag for Extreme Rules then. Maybe Kyle Reese will make a cameo appearance with Sarah Connor?

Maybe not.
