How to watch WWE Extreme Rules: live stream the PPV from anywhere

WWE Extreme Rules 2018 will be the last stop on the road to SummerSlam and wrestling fans that prefer non-traditional matches where anything can happen are in for quite the show. Not only will there be cage matches but chairs, sticks and other non-conventional weapons will also be allowed as Sunday’s WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view event is the spiritual successor to the now defunct ECW. 

There are eleven matches on Sunday’s card and the three-and-a-half hour show will feature a Steel Cage match, a tables match and James Ellsworth will even be suspended above the ring in a shark cage when Alexa Bliss takes on Nia Jax for the Raw Women’s Championship.

Unfortunately due to a 30-day suspension, Ronda Rousey will not be in the ring but she will be in the crowd. Brock Lesnar is also sitting this one out but he will return with Rousey for SummerSlam.

Jeff Hardy will go up against Shinsuke Nakamura in a singles match for the WWE United States Championship and Extreme Rules 2018 will conclude with the Bulgarian Brute Rusev trying to take the WWE Championship from AJ Styles. Rusev earned the opportunity by outlasting Big E, The Miz, Samoa Joe and Daniel Bryan in SmackDown LIVE’s first-ever Gauntlet Match.

If you’re a fan of wrestling then WWE Extreme Rules 2018 is an event you won’t want to miss and we’ll show you how to live stream it from anywhere in the world for free.

How to watch the WWE with a VPN service
If you live in a country where there's no WWE wrestling broadcast, then there's still a way you can watch. You'll need to use a VPN to dial in to a country that does have one. A VPN is perfect for this as it allows you to change your IP address so you appear to be in a completely different location. We've tested hundreds of VPNs and can recommend these as the best three VPNs currently available:

1. Express VPN (comes with a 30 day money back guarantee)
This is the #1 rated best VPN in the world right now. You can watch on many devices at once including Smart TVs, Fire TV Stick, PC, Mac, iPhone, Android phone, iPads, tablets etc. Check out Express VPN

2. NordVPN: SmartPlay tech makes NordVPN a great choice for streaming.

3. VyprVPN: blazing speeds make VyprVPN a great choice for 4K video

Live stream on the WWE Network

First thing's first...the WWE Network is your first stop for the most comprehensive wrestling coverage on the planet. It's a paid subscription service (think Netflix, but only for the WWE) available pretty much anywhere in the world, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and including the US, UK, Australia and Canada.

The list of devices you can watch on is almost as lengthy, with apps for iOS and Android, PlayStation, Xbox, Apple TV, Roku and Smart TVs all included.

The cost of course varies from territory to territory, but the $9.99 or £9.99 monthly bills in the US and UK should give you a good idea. That includes the Extreme Rules live stream and the ability to re-watch every PPV the WWE has ever put on.

Just wanting to watch AJ Styles v Rusev and don't want the WWE Network after Extreme Rules 2018? Then there's a free trial available, too. Head to the WWE Network to sign up and new subscribers can test out the service for themselves for a full month.

It's the WWE Network again

As is the case in the WWE’s home country, the WWE Network is also the cheapest, most convenient place to watch Extreme Rules 2018 in Canada. However, you could choose to go with Bell, Shaw PPV or SaksTel PPV but expect to pay similar prices to PPV providers in the US. 

How to watch Extreme Rules 2018: UK stream

Sky Sports Box Office is the official broadcaster of the WWE in the UK and if you’d prefer not to commit to a subscription model on the WWE Network then it might be your best option. For £14.95 you can catch Extreme Rules 2018 live at 12am and even rewatch the event over the course of the next few days thanks to multiple repeats. 

Not in the UK? You'll need a VPN to watch this live stream
