Whether you call it Extreme Rules 2020 or 'The Horror Show at Extreme Rules', the upcoming pay-per-view should be a very interesting one for WWE. And this is because it will set the stage for the second-biggest pay-per-view of the year- WWE SummerSlam 2020, which is why Extreme Rules needs to be off the charts.
While the clashes that are lined up for us (Drew McIntyre vs. Dolph Ziggler, Apollo Crews vs. MVP) at WWE Extreme Rules may be predictable in a sense, WWE can really make the event memorable with some good booking. In this article, I shall list how these 5 betrayals could make Extreme Rules a very exciting event.
Be sure to leave a comment and let me know if you think WWE Extreme Rules could feature the following betrayals and indeed if you would like to see them.
#5 Heath Slater returns at WWE Extreme Rules to attack Drew McIntyre
Sportskeeda's own Tom Colohue reported the following about Heath Slater following his appearance on RAW in an interesting report:
He hasn't been offered a new contract, to my knowledge, but I know a lot of people backstage who are very impressed as well the wrestlers as well. With a performance like this, it's not impossible that a new contract will be offered, that said, I'm pretty sure he already has a deal offered by another company.
Based on his incredible performance, could we possibly see Heath Slater coming back at Extreme Rules for another run as a heel? I think that this is certainly a possibility because of how he became the talk of the town after his appearance on RAW last week, and also to make it seem like Dolph Ziggle has a realistic chance of winning the WWE Championship at Extreme Rules.
#4 Dominik assaults his own father Rey Mysterio at WWE Extreme Rules 2020
It is pretty clear at this point in time that Rey Mysterio is coming to the very end of his WWE run and it will be sooner rather than later that he passes on his mask to someone who deserves it. At Extreme Rules 2020, we could see the first step in this grand process, where he sets the stage for his son Dominik Mysterio's debut.
There is probably nobody that Rey Mysterio wants to pass on his mask to, than his own son Dominik, who has been a constant feature on WWE television over the past few months as we head into Extreme Rules. Could Rey Mysterio have his final hurrah at SummerSlam where his own son Dominik retires him in his first big debut match?
Dominik could always make his debut against Seth Rollins, but obviously, Rey Mysterio is a far better competitor for the said role.
But for this dream WWE match to happen, Dominik needs to betray his father at Extreme Rules 2020.
#3 Bayley costs Sasha Banks an opportunity to become a double champion at WWE Extreme Rules 2020
Not long ago, WWE put out this tweet reminding us that as good as Bayley and Sasha Banks may be as a cohesive unit when they are working together, they may be even better when they are facing one another. And yes, at Extreme Rules, the two women may decide that SummerSlam is the site where they recreate the same magic that we loved so much back in WWE NXT.
Here's how things should ideally play out at Extreme Rules 2020, in my opinion. Sasha Banks should help Bayley retain her WWE SmackDown Women's Championship against Nikki Cross and of course because Sasha Banks will be facing Asuka at Extreme Rules too, she will expect Bayley to have her back as well.
But during the Sasha Banks vs. Asuka match to determine who will go into WWE SummerSlam 2020 as the RAW Women's Champion at Extreme Rules, Bayley could turn on her own partner, setting up a match for SummerSlam.
#2 Alexa Bliss turns on her best friend Nikki Cross at WWE Extreme Rules
One of the major WWE stars whose stock seems to have fallen in the pandemic era is Alexa Bliss, who was a significantly bigger star prior to the current scenario. At Extreme Rules, Nikki Cross, who has been portrayed as Alexa Bliss' best friend will be going up against Bayley for the SmackDown Women's Championship. And it is also at Extreme Rules 2020, that we could see a betrayal that shakes WWE to its very core.
It would be a lot more exciting if Alexa Bliss turns on Nikki Cross shortly after she has become the WWE SmackDown Women's Champion to set up a title match for SummerSlam. This is, by far, the biggest match that can happen on the SmackDown brand at the moment, not involving Bayley or Sasha Banks. It would be a personal feud that could stretch out for months after Extreme Rules.
Do you guys think that it's time for Alexa Bliss to turn heel again and attack her best friend at WWE Extreme Rules 2020?
#1 Aleister Black betrays Rey Mysterio to join Seth Rollins' heel stable at WWE Extreme Rules
Remember just how special Aleister Black used to be once upon a time, back when he was running through his opponents with the Black Mass? It just seems like WWE has watered his character down over time to the point where, as Extreme Rules approaches, he has just become another guy in the active WWE roster.
There's a very easy way to rectify this situation and for this to happen, Aleister Black will have to turn heel at Extreme Rules 2020. In this manner, WWE can give him back some of the oomph that has been missing from his character recently.
So, in the match between Rey Mysterio and Seth Rollins, Aleister Black could reveal himself to be the newest recruit into Seth Rollins' stable. This would be more in line with Aleister Black's dark and demented character anyway, in my opinion.
Before Extreme Rules comes around, be sure to watch this video featuring couples who met in WWE, which includes Aleister Black and Zelina Vega.
