WWE Extreme Rules 2019: 5 Interesting stats heading into the event 

Extreme Rules takes over Philadelphia, Pennsylvania this weekend and boasts some interesting match-ups that could go on to change the face of the company heading into The Biggest Party of the summer next month.

Extreme Rules is billed as the one night of the year that WWE goes extreme and the card is definitely making sure it follows the reputation that this show has developed over the past few years.

This year's show boasts a number of interesting stats heading into the event, as well as a number of interesting stats that have been created by the stars of this year's show since Extreme Rules has been an annual event over the past decade. Here are some of the best ones that every member of the WWE Universe needs to know.

#5. Alexa Bliss is undefeated at Extreme Rules

Alexa Bliss and Bayley have history at Extreme Rules

Alexa Bliss is looking to capture the SmackDown Women's Championship this year at Extreme Rules and enters the show for the first time as a challenger. Bliss has defended the Raw Women's Championship at the past two Extreme Rules events in a Kendo Stick on a Pole Match and an Extreme Rules match.

This weekend Bliss becomes the first female wrestler to appear at three consecutive Extreme Rules events as part of three different gimmick matches since she teams with Nikki Cross in a handicap match for the Women's Championship.

Bliss has already defeated Bayley once, back in 2017 when the two women collided in a Kendo stick on a pole match, so as long as The Goddess has been able to shake off her current illness by Sunday night, then there's nothing stopping her from capturing the SmackDown Women's Championship once again.

#4 The Undertaker has never appeared at Extreme Rules

Undertaker makes his first Extreme Rules appearance this weekend

The Undertaker teams with Roman Reigns this weekend in ECW Country as they take on the team of Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre. The Deadman's last match on WWE TV came back at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia in June and he has seemingly returned especially to help Reigns in his bid to overcome the numbers game of Shane McMahon.

Over the past few years, The Undertaker hasn't appeared as much as he used to, which could be why he is yet to appear at an Extreme Rules event. Despite being an active member of the main roster for the past decade, The Deadman only appeared at One Night Stand back in 2008, where he was defeated by Edge in a TLC match, Extreme Rules began the following year and has since become an annual event.

#3. First-ever Winners Takes All match

This will be the first-ever Winners Take All match at Extreme Rules

Extreme Rules has seen some interesting stipulations over the years, from the usual No Holds Barred Matches, Extreme Rules matches, and ladder matches, to the much crazier Country Whipping matches, Kendo stick on a pole matches and even a WeeLC match.

That being said, WWE has never presented a Winners Take All match at Extreme Rules which means that Baron Corbin, Lacey Evans, Becky Lynch, and Seth Rollins will all be making history in Philadelphia. Their match is only the second Mixed Tag Team match at Extreme Rules as well since the first once saw Rich Swann and Sasha Banks team up to take on Alicia Fox and Noam Dar back in 2017.

This is also the first time at Extreme Rules that two championships have been on the line in the same match since Evans and Corbin are competing to take home both the Raw Women's and The Universal Championships.

#2. Kofi Kingston's impressive record

Kofi Kingston has a unique record at Extreme Rules

Kofi Kingston is a veteran in WWE, which could be why he has been part of a number of records throughout his career. This Sunday, he walks in Philadelphia as the WWE Champion and has to overcome the threat of Samoa Joe in order to walk out with the Championship that he fought so hard for back at WrestleMania.

Extreme Rules has become an interesting show for Kingston since he holds a unique record at the event. The African star is the only wrestler in history to have been able to walk into Extreme Rules as the United States Champion and then, defend, win and lose the Championship at subsequent events. No other star has been able to do this with any other Championship, hopefully, Kingston is able to successfully defend his Championship this time around.

#1. Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans weren't even part of Extreme Rules last year

Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans will main event Extreme Rules 2019

It's interesting to note the rise of Becky Lynch over the past few years, The Man wasn't even part of the main show at WrestleMania 34 before she went on to main event WrestleMania 35 back in April.

The same seems to be said for this event last year as well since Becky Lynch wasn't even on the card for last year's Extreme Rules as Carmella and Asuka battled it out for the SmackDown Women's Championship, but somehow The Man has made it all the way to the main event this year.

Lacey Evans was in NXT this time last year and this will now be her first WWE main event. Evans was part of the main event at Stomping Grounds, but this was as a referee not as a competitor, which means that this is her first official main event on the main roster.
