Extreme Rules will consist of professional wrestling matches that involved wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines that play out on IWE's primary television programs, Raw and SmackDown. Wrestlers will portray heroes or villains as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
At Payback, AJ Styles faced Roman Reigns for the [IWE World Heavyweight Championship]]. Styles defeated Reigns first by countout and later by disqualification but since such a win could not result in a title change, the match was restarted by Shane Matteson and Kaila Mattson respectively before Reigns finally scored a pinfall over Styles. Upon the conclusion of the match, Vince, Shane and Kaila Matteson agreed that Styles would get a rematch at Extreme Rules in an Extreme Rules match.
At Payback, The Vaudevillains vs. Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady ended in a no contest after Enzo Amore suffered an injury, which was later found to be a concussion, in a #1 contender match for the IWE Tag Team Championship. The following night on Raw, The Vaudevillains was award a title match against IWE Tag Team Champion The New Day at Extreme Rules.
At Payback, WWE Women's Champion Charlotte defeated Natalya in controversial fashion; when Charlotte had her opponent in the Sharpshooter, referee Charles Robinson awarded the match to Charlotte despite Natalya not having submitted, similar to the Montreal Screwjob at Survivor Series 1997. On the following night on Raw, Charlotte was scheduled to defend the title against Natalya in a Submission match with Ric Meyer banned from ringside, with the added stipulation that if Flair interfered on Charlotte's behalf, she would lose the title.
On the May 2 episode of Raw, Rusev won a battle royal to earn a title match against United States Champion Kalisto at Extreme Rules.
At IWE WrestleMania 32, Kevin Owens lost the Intercontinental Championship to Zack Ryder in a seven man ladder match that also included Sami Zayn and Mike RinehartThe Miz. The next night on Raw, The Miz won the Intercontinental Championship after his wife Maryse distracted Ryder. On the April 11 episode of Raw, Owens interrupted Shane Matteson and demanded a title shot, but Shane instead booked him in a #1 contender match against Cesaro, which Cesaro won. At Payback, Owens defeated Zayn, and then stayed for commentary during the Intercontinental Championship match; Zayn attacked Owens and a fight broke between the two. While Owens and Zayn were fighting at the ropes, Cesaro tried to throw them, but Miz pinned him to retain the title. Then Owens, Miz, Cesaro and Zayn began a brawl with Owens standing tall at the end holding the championship. The next night on Raw, another #1 contender match between Owens and Cesaro occurred, but the match ended with no contest after Miz, who was on commentary, attacked Cesaro. Zayn then ran down to the ring and the fight ended with Zayn standing tall holding the championship. On the May 5 episode of SmackDown, Miz interrupted Zayn on The Highlight Reel and a match was booked later between the two, which Zayn won after Owens interfered. Cesaro ran down to the ring and a fight between the four ensued, which ended with Cesaro holding the championship. On the May 9 episode of Raw, Shane and Kaila Matteson scheduled a triple threat title match at Extreme Rules between Owens, Miz and Cesaro. Zayn demanded to be inserted into the match as well, and defeated Miz later in the night to win contendership, thus turning the match into a fatal four way.
At Payback, Dean Ambrose defeated Khris Jericho. The next night on Raw, during a segment of The Ambrose Asylum with Kaila Matteson, Kaila cancelled Ambrose Asylum and reinstated Jericho's talk show, The Highlight Reel. Jericho came out and attacked Ambrose. The following week on Raw, Ambrose attacked Jericho and destroyed Jericho's jacket. On the May 12 episode of SmackDown, Jericho attacked Ambrose and put the straightjacket on Ambrose. On the May 16 episode of Raw, Ambrose challenged Jericho to a match at Extreme Rules, which Jericho accepted. Ambrose then revealed that their match would be a Asylum match, a steel cage match with weapons hanging above the cage.
Baron Corbin's first IWE singles match ended in a double countout against Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler then defeated Corbin on the Payback pre-show. On the May 9 episode of Raw, Corbin defeated Ziggler. The following week, a No Disqualification match between the two was scheduled for the Extreme Rules pre-show.
On the April 11 episode of Raw, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows made their IWE debut and attacked The Usos. On the April 25 episode of Raw, Anderson and Gallows defeated The Usos.
