WWE Extreme Rules 2016: 5 Points to note
If you doubted for one second that WWE couldn’t have delivered a great PPV which wasn’t amongst the Big Four, then be ready to stand corrected. Over the years, it has become amply clear that not hyping a particular event doesn’t mean that it won’t have something memorable happening.
A lot of things happened in this PPV that will be remembered for a long time. There were great matches and amazing moments. And after watching the pre-show of this PPV, one might want to make watching most pre-shows a fixture. Extreme Rules gave us its fair share of some amazing performances on the mic and in the ring. Here are the 5 points to note -
He’s Back
Sure, AJ Styles and Roman Reigns had a brilliant feud leading upto Extreme Rules. Styles was more determined than ever and of course, Reigns was booed in New Jersey. But Styles was adamant that he wanted to win on his own and Reigns was fighting as a family man.
The match started out even in the ring and outside of it until finally Reigns slammed Styles onto the announcers’ table after the latter came running at Reigns through the barricade.
Back and forth they went and like clockwork, the friends came out and so did the brothers and eventually Reigns was able to overcome and win.
But this wasn’t the end Reigns or the fans may have been hoping for. Rollins appeared more than a week before his rumored return and gave the champion a pedigree. WOW! Hope is back. Now, Rollins being Stephanie McMahon’s ally could clash with Shane McMahon. This is going to be intriguing.
