There was a lot of discussion yesterday over whether Extreme Rules would close with the WWE Championship match or the Swamp Fight but in the end, the final decision was made to go with the Swamp Fight. The Swamp Fight was filmed Thursday night in Florida.
The Eye for an Eye match was the only bout from the Performance Center that was not live on last night's Extreme Rules PPV. The match was taped earlier Sunday afternoon with Vince McMahon personally overseeing the proceedings, including picking out the specific weapons that were used in the match. McMahon was very involved with laying out the story of the match itself. Perhaps Vince's involvement explains the vomit as he's certainly not adverse to toilet humor.
WWE United States Champion Apollo Crews was not at the Performance Center at all yesterday and those working the show were told he was not cleared to perform. Obviously that brings about rumors about his health, but we cannot confirm anything of that nature.
The Raw Women's Championship finish was done specifically to try and drive viewership to tonight's Raw. The finish was changed over the course of the day and at one point, Asuka was scheduled to win via the Asuka Lock.
