With Money in the Bank now in the history books, the WWE has wasted no time turning their attention towards their next PPV, Extreme Rules, which will take place in just over three weeks time.
Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.
While it is definitely considered a 'B-show', Extreme Rules has often provided fans with many memorable moments, and the company tends to utilise the show's gimmick quite well.
As a rule, most matches on the card have some sort of stipulation, and this often makes the PPV a fun night, if nothing else.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
The WWE has teased several matches for the show on this week's television, and they may have even planted the seeds for some of the stipulations we may be seeing at the event. Let's take a look at five matches that should happen at Extreme Rules, and what stipulations they should have.
Trending
#5 Shinsuke Nakamura Vs Jeff Hardy- Ladder Match
Shinsuke Nakamura's recent defeat to AJ Styles at Extreme Rules all but rules him out of the WWE title picture, and if this week's SmackDown was anything to go by, it looks as though he will be going one on one with Jeff Hardy at Extreme Rules for the US title.
Hardy is a wrestler synonymous with some of the more extreme stipulations in wrestling, and Nakamura is still desperately in need of a show-stealing performance on the main roster. Having the two men go one-on-one in a ladder match, a match that Hardy is renowned for could finally provide Shinsuke with his show-stealing moment.
While we may have just seen two ladder matches at Money in the Bank, they always guarantee a certain level of excitement, and having Nakamura overthrow Hardy in his signature match could really help give him some of his momentum back.
#4 Alexa Bliss Vs Nia Jax- Tables Match
This is the only match on this list that has already been confirmed and after two fairly lacklustre encounters between these pair at WrestleMania and Backlash, the WWE needs to do something different here to help draw the fans in.
It would also be foolish to have Alexa Bliss lose her title belt after re-establishing herself as Raw's top women at Money in the Bank, so they need a gimmick which benefits her. Nia Jax destroyed Bliss in both of their previous encounters, and fans aren't likely to buy Bliss beating her clean in a singles one-on-one match.
A tables match may not be the most inspired choice, but the stipulation would at least allow Bliss to gain a lucky victory, and would also provide Ronda Rousey with the chance to make a return from her suspension and put Bliss through a table post-match- just like she did on this week's Raw.
#3 Carmella and James Ellsworth Vs Asuka- No-Dq
This one really isn't that imaginative, but it needs to happen.
While a lot of people really enjoyed James Ellsworth's return at Money in the Bank, it has definitely not benefitted Asuka in any way, and The Empress of Tomorrow needs to exact some very swift revenge on Carmella and Ellsworth if she is ever to regain any of her momentum.
Carmella needs to come out at Extreme Rules and just destroy both Carmella and Ellsworth, perhaps even pinning them both at the same time, or forcing both of them to submit somehow.
Asuka Vs Charlotte 2 is the match we need to see at SummerSlam, and if that is going to happen, Asuka needs to enter the match back on top of the women's division.
#2 The B-Team Vs The Deleters of Worlds
The Raw tag team division has been dying a slow, painful death over the last few months and the WWE need to inject some life back into it at Extreme Rules.
The B-Team Vs The Deleters of Worlds match was held off at Money in the Bank and that could be because the match has no interest from fans, or because the WWE has bigger plans for their feud.
The B-Team mocked Hardy and Wyatt on this week's Raw, and this could lead to Hardy inviting them along to the compound for a match at Extreme Rules.
The B-Team are some of the whackiest characters on the Raw roster, and they would be the perfect candidates for an Ultimate Deletion sequel.
Hardy and Wyatt could even throw Bo Dallas into the lake of reincarnation and have him join his brother in the Woken Universe after the match
#1 Samoa Joe Vs Daniel Bryan- Submission Match
This week's SmackDown saw Daniel Bryan taken out by The Bludgeon Brothers during the number 1 contenders gauntlet match, and that has raised questions over what exactly the WWE has in store for him in the coming weeks.
With that in mind, this match is more in hope than expectation but a match between Bryan and Joe in the WWE is a mouth-watering prospect, and having the two men square off in a submission match could be incredible.
Bryan and Joe have two of the deadliest submission finishers on the WWE roster today, and seeing the two men battle it out at Extreme Rules could really steal the show.
