WWE Makes Change To Extreme Rules Match

At Extreme Rules, Universal Champion Seth Rollins and Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch will both put their titles on the line in a Mixed Tag Team Match in the hopes of getting Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans out of their hair once and for all. A stipulation has been added to the match as WWE announced this afternoon that it will be contested under Extreme Rules.

In an Extreme Rules Match, the participants can’t be disqualified, allowing for weapons and outside interference. WWE is officially billing the bout as a Winners Take All Mixed Tag Team Extreme Rules Match.

Rollins and Lynch kicked off last Monday’s post-Stomping Grounds episode of Raw, but were interrupted by Corbin’s entrance theme, with Evans ambushing Lynch. After Rollins and Lynch fought them off, Corbin and Evans proposed the Mixed Tag Team Match for Extreme Rules.

Lynch accepted the stipulation under the condition that Corbin and Evans couldn’t get another shot against Rollins and Lynch if they lost. Corbin and Evans wanted another stipulation, and Rollins accepted without hearing what it was. Corbin then said Rollins and Lynch’s titles would both be on the line.

Rollins retained the Universal Championship against Corbin in the main event of Stomping Grounds, while Lynch retained the Raw Women’s Championship against Evans in the opening match of the main card. Evans was the Special Guest Referee for Rollins vs. Corbin but was taken out by Lynch at the end of the match.

Extreme Rules takes place on July 14 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
