The WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view event takes place on Sunday, July 19, 2020 in Orlando, Florida at the WWE Performance Center.

At this show, WWE will have two cinematic matches. A Swamp Fight with Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman in addition to an Eye For An Eye Match with Rey Mysterio vs. Seth Rollins.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that the Mysterio-Rollins bout in which one of the wrestlers must lose an eye, will also be cinematic-style.

The current plan is for the match to be taped, and use CGI to show an eye being pulled out as the finish.

Here’s the lineup: 

WWE Champion Drew McIntyre vs. Dolph Ziggler

WWE Raw Women’s Champion Asuka vs. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Sasha Banks

WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley vs. Nikki Cross

Bray Wyatt vs. Braun Strowman – Swamp Fight

Eye For An Eye Match: Seth Rollins vs. Rey Mysterio

WWE United States Title Match: Apollo Crews (champion) vs. MVP
