WWE Extreme Rules PPV Live, Updated Results: Is This Show, In Face, A Horror Show?

Pop open a Mountain Dew and do a kickflip over a guard rail because it’s time for WWE’s July PPV, Extreme Rules. However, unlike what was considered “extreme” during the ’00s, this event will feature some crazy stipulations, see competitors hit each other with weapons, and more. This year’s event has been branded “the Horror Show,” so expect the unexpected.

The PPV will be taking place at WWE’s Performance Center in Florida, as the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the company to stop performing in arenas in front of thousands of fans. Depending on where you live in the world, this show will air at a reasonable hour or super-early in the morning. Check out the start times below.

Start time:

  • 4 PM PT
  • 6 PM CT
  • 7 PM ET
  • 12 AM BST (July 20)
  • 9 AM AEST (July 20)

If you’re looking to watch the event, you’ll have to sign up for the WWE Network. The streaming service allows users to watch old episodes of Raw, Smackdown, and more–including PPVs. Additionally, you can stream PPVs live, and it’s honestly the best way to watch them as you’re paying $10 a month compared to $35 and upward per PPV.
