For the last few years, the PPV that follows Wrestlemania in April or May is Extreme Rules. It allows for the feuds and performers to go “extreme” for the night and provide the final note for their feuds or ignite new opens with intense matches.

However, there have been some scheduling conflicts, and it looks like WWE will be featuring two PPVs in May after Wrestlemania.

According to multiple sources, WWE “Extreme Rules” was originally scheduled for April 24th and WWE “Payback” was to take place on May 22nd.

Now, both events have swapped places and will both be featured in May with “Payback” being the first PPV after Wrestlemania 32.

“Extreme Rules” has been rescheduled for May 22nd and will take place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, which was originally where Payback was planned to take place. WWE.com has confirmed this change.

It was recently rumored that WWE was considering potentially cutting down on the yearly PPVs, but having two in one month is going to create an empty April.

The entire month of March will be building up for Wrestlemania on April 3rd, but then there won’t be another PPV until May 1st.

We can probably expect a WWE live event on the WWE Network or some kind of event to give the WWE Universe and WWE programming something to build towards right after Wrestlemania.

Do you want to see less PPV every year?
