Extreme Rules is an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment.[1] The event was promoted as One Night Stand until the 2009 edition.[1][2]

For the first two years, WWE promoted the event under the former Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) promotion name, which featured former alumni of the company as ECW's holdings were purchased by WWE in a bankruptcy court in 2003.[3] The 2005 show was a tribute show to the original ECW, with most of the match participants being ECW alumni including those who were not under contract with WWE at the time.[4] The 2006 edition, however, marked the kickoff to WWE's new ECW brand.[5] In 2007, the event became a regular tri-branded pay per view. The event is billed as the one show a year where every match takes place under Extreme Rules.[6] For the 2009 edition, WWE changed the name of the event to Extreme Rules.[2]
