WWE Extreme Rules 2021: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True
6. WWE Cram In Unnecessary Matches
This article will be published before Friday's episode of SmackDown. There, 'King' Nakamura will defend his Intercontinental Title against Apollo Crews. Yeah, you can totally see where this point is going; if that pair go to a screwy finish, then WWE will probably book another rematch at Extreme Rules.
It'd be foolish to cram in too many unwanted or boring matches though. Nakamura vs. Crews doesn't seem good enough for pay-per-view (especially given the lack of proper build), and it'd be one that'd play before silence in Columbus. They'd pop for the Rick Boogs-led intro, but that's about it.
Other duffers could happen too.
Doudrop vs. Eva #1,236 is possible, and so is a Women's Title repeat pitting Nikki A.S.H and Rhea Ripley vs. deposed champs Natalya and Tamina. Exactly none of the matches from that trio listed above sound like they'd be must-see on Sunday night.
Quality > quantity.
