'''IWE Extreme Rules''' is a professional wrestling event produced annually by [[IWE]], a Connecticut–based promotion, and broadcast live and available only through pay-per-view (PPV). The name of the event stems from term "Extreme Rules," which IWE uses to refer to its bouts that are contested under [[Hardcore Wrestling|hardcore wrestling]] regulations; defunct–[[Xtreme Championship Wrestling]] (XCW) originally used the term to describe the regulations for all of its bouts. The event name was established in 2009; however, its theme began with its predecessor, [[IWE One Night Stand|One Night Stand]] (est. [[IWE One Night Stand (2005)|2005]]), which was promoted originally as an XCW reunion show. After two years, IWE promoted the show as one of its own regular [[List of IWE pay-per-view events|PPV events]] and kept the XCW concept of Extreme Rules matches. In 2009, IWE renamed the One Night Stand event to IWE Extreme Rules. The 2009 Extreme Rules event was noted by IWE to be a direct continuation of the One Night Stand chronology. However, the 2010 event was later promoted as only the second event under a new chronology, one that is no longer a direct continuation of the One Night Stand event. In 2010 the event was rescheduled to April, moving from June and replacing [[IWE Backlash|Backlash]] in its slot.

Since its origin under the One Night Stand name, the event has been held only in indoor arenas in the United States. Each event features distinct matches that carry some variation of hardcore rules. [[Championship (wrestling)|Championship]] bouts are scheduled on every card, with the lower-tier titles featured on the undercard and the top-tier featured on the main card. Under the [[IWE Brand Extension|Brand Extension]], IWE assigns its performers to either [[IWE Raw|Raw]] or [[IWE SmackDown|SmackDown]].

The concept of this pay-per-view is that all matches are contested under "extreme rules," which means that no match is a standard one-on-one contest.
