Extreme Rules 2022 is the latest upcoming pay-per-view event to be hosted by the WWE. It’s going to be the next WWE Network Specials for the month of October. This year marks the 14th edition of the Extreme Rules chronology, an event that is certainly popular among the WWE Universe due to the fact that it mostly contains gimmick matches meaning the matches get held under different stipulations.
Over the past few years, Vince McMahon didn’t necessarily host the gimmick matches for this particular event but with Triple H in charge of the creative team, each of the announced matches for Extreme Rules 2022 comes with a different capacity and thereby make those matches a must-see for the fans. It’s that one night of the year where things go extreme, legit.
