WWE has made a minor change to one title match at the upcoming Extreme Rules PPV event.
SmackDown Live General Manager Paige has announced that James Ellsworth would be placed in a shark cage during the SmackDown Women’s Title match between champion Carmella and Asuka at this upcoming event.
As seen on this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Live in Manchester, NH at the SNHU Arena on the USA Network, Asuka was able to beat Ellsworth in a lumberjack match.
The Extreme Rules pay-per-view event takes place on Sunday, July 15, 2018 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the PPG Paints Arena and will air on the WWE Network and some traditional pay-per-view outlets. Both Raw and SmackDown brands will be featured.
