The WWE is going to extreme lengths to care for kayfabe, even regularly breaking the fourth wall and involving "behind-the-scenes" employees in its storylines.

But prior to all of that, the organization did a darn excellent job of convincing us their superstars had been really hurt in a match, even going as far as to "blade" themselves so they'd bleed.

So, did Rey Mysterio really lose his eye?

While the PPV had some solid fits, the person who everybody's speaking about is the "Eye for an Eye" contest between Rey Mysterio and Seth Rollins. The rule used to be easy: with a purpose to win: you had to take out your opponent's eyeball. Seriously.

The fit had so much of blowback on social media, with other people complaining that it looked less like a pro-wrestling match and extra like one dude seeking to murder any other man.

A variety of different guns had been used by the lads to check out and take out each and every different's eyeballs, with Seth even chasing Rey around with a spike at one point seeking to dig it out. In the end, Seth "plucked" Rey's eyeball out and puked after the truth, because it used to be so disgusting.

However, in case you are nervous about Rey losing his eye: relaxation confident. It was a complete gag. No, the WWE's now not going to let one of their skills lose an eyeball for a wrestling match.

WWE 'Extreme Rules' results, who came out on best?

The pay-per-view was once being billed by means of the WWE as "The Horror Show at Extreme Rules" and its main tournament featured Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman duking it out at The Fiend's swamp.

Even although viewers could "sense" a Drew win from a mile away, it was nonetheless an incredible appearing from each performers and one of the highlights of the pay-per-view. The Asuka vs. Sasha Banks match was once also equally entertaining, however the questionable end had a lot of folks at house questioning just what the heck came about.

"Technically" Sasha received the championship, however the cases main as much as her getting the 1-2-3 are very fishy.

Asuka accidentally spits green mist in the referee's face, very easily incapacitating him. Bayley then comes and smashes Asuka right within the again with a tag crew belt, and then dons her personal referee blouse to make the three depend. Bayley and Sasha Banks then power the bell to ring and stroll up the ramp, gloating as they cling the belts. But did they win? We'll have to see on RAW if Asuka has really misplaced the name or now not.
