5 Extreme weapons used in WWE Extreme Rules matches

#2 Thumbtacks

Chris Jericho was thrown onto thumbtacks at Extreme Rules 2016

In modern-day WWE, it’s rare that matches involve something as legitimately dangerous as thumbtacks – but that’s exactly what Dean Ambrose and Chris Jericho used when they took their Asylum match to a whole new level at Extreme Rules 2016.

Ambrose introduced the tacks towards the end of the match. Then, after several moments where both Superstars were perilously close to falling on them, “The Lunatic Fringe” shoved Y2J back-first against the tacks following a failed attempt at a Codebreaker (06:34 on the video below).

The Shield member went on to pick up the win with a Dirty Deeds, while Jericho spent the rest of the night getting 69 tacks removed from his body.
