WWE Extreme Rules (simply known as Extreme Rules) was a professional wrestling event produced by the WWE, is a Connecticut–based promotion, and broadcast live and available through pay-per-view and the WWE Network. The event was established in 2009, debuting in June on WWE's pay-per-view calendar.

In 2009, WWE renamed the One Night Stand event to WWE Extreme Rules. The 2009 Extreme Rules event was noted by WWE to be a direct continuation of the One Night Stand chronology. However, the 2010 event was later promoted as only the second event under a new chronology, one that is no longer a direct continuation of the One Night Stand events. Starting in 2010, Extreme Rules was moved from June to late April/early May to replace Judgment Day as the post-WrestleMania pay-per-view event. For 2013, the event was scheduled to take place in mid-May and replace Over the Limit, which was moved to October before being discontinued later that year and replaced by Battleground. The event will return to the early June slot of WWE's pay-per-view calendar and will be a Raw-exclusive pay-per-view event.
