However, Banks was unable to appear for unknown reasons. Carmella was then announced as Banks' replacement. However, before the match could begin, Becky Lynch, making her first appearance since the post-Money in the Bank Raw in May 2020, made a surprise return, attacked Carmella, challenged Belair, and subsequently defeated her in 26 seconds to win the title. On the following SmackDown, Belair challenged Lynch to a rematch, but Lynch declined. Belair then won a fatal four-way match to become the number one contender. The following week, Belair challenged Lynch to a match that night, but Lynch again declined, stating that she would defend the title when she was ready. Later, backstage, WWE officials Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville informed Lynch that she would defend the title against Belair at Extreme Rules. On the July 23 episode of SmackDown, after Roman Reigns rejected John Cena's challenge for a Universal Championship match at SummerSlam, Finn Bálor challenged Reigns for the title at the event, which Reigns accepted. However, an altercation occurred during the contract signing, resulting in Cena signing the contract and becoming Reigns' opponent at SummerSlam, where Reigns retained the title. Bálor then had his title shot on the September 3 episode of SmackDown, but was unsuccessful. A rematch between the two for the Universal Championship was scheduled for Extreme Rules. On the September 10 episode, it was revealed that Reigns would be facing Bálor's alter ego, "The Demon". At SummerSlam, Damian Priest defeated Sheamus to win the United States Championship. On the August 30 episode of Raw, Priest retained the title against Sheamus and Drew McIntyre in a triple threat match. On the following episode, Sheamus defeated McIntyre to earn a United States Championship match against Priest at Extreme Rules. On the September 20 episode, Jeff Hardy defeated Sheamus to earn a spot in the title match at Extreme Rules, thus making it a triple threat match. Extreme Rules was a professional wrestling pay-per-view and WWE Network event produced by WWE for their Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. It took place on September 26, 2021, at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. It was the 13th event under the Extreme Rules chronology and the first to be held in September. The event was originally scheduled to take place on July 18 at the SAP Center in San Jose, California, however, it was postponed and relocated due to issues stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. After the previous year's event was titled as The Horror Show at Extreme Rules, the PPV returned to its original name for 2021. Seven matches were contested at the event, including one on the Kickoff pre-show. In the main event, Roman Reigns defeated "The Demon" Finn Bálor in an Extreme Rules match to retain the Universal Championship. In other prominent matches, The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso) defeated The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) to retain the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch faced Bianca Belair, which ended in a no contest after Sasha Banks made her return and subsequently ambushed both competitors, and Damian Priest defeated Jeff Hardy and Sheamus in a triple threat match to retain the United States Championship.
