What Made Extreme Rules 2012 So Awesome... Yet So Confusing?
Extreme Rules 2012 is soooo underrated, of course everyone remembers the main event, but the other two main matches were so good. The start of the Yes movement had just begun prior to this, CM Drunk was wildin. It was a fun time. Also, most of the community did not have a Wrestlemania hangover. What a time it was to be alive.. until it got confusing as hell towards the end
Sadly, the product went down after this but lets at least have some fun talking about this epic show
