WWE is now adding a bizarre subtitle to their Extreme Rules PPV event. The show is now being called: “Extreme Rules: The Horror Show”.
Here is the full statement by WWE on this change, as the company promotes the upcoming RAW Women’s Championship Match between Asuka and “The Bo$$” Sasha Banks.
Sasha Banks will try to join her tag team partner Bayley in becoming a double champion at WWE Extreme Rules: The Horror Show when she challenges Raw Women’s Champion Asuka.
The Boss, already one-half of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, listened to “The Role Model” describe how great it is to be a double champion and decided she wanted to experience it for herself. After defeating The IIconics to retain the tag titles, Banks called out Asuka, who was happy to accept the challenge before attempting to fight off the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. However, while Asuka was focused on Bayley, The Boss saw the perfect opening to lock the Bank Statement on the champion, sending a huge message ahead of their title showdown.
Will Banks become a double champion, or will Asuka continue to reign supreme on the red brand? Find out at WWE Extreme Rules: The Horror Show, streaming Sunday, July 19, at 7 ET/4 PT on the award-winning WWE Network!
