A look at what happened during the WWE Extreme Rules PPV match of Chris Jericho vs. Dean Ambrose.
One of the marquee non-title matches on the WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view saw Chris Jericho and Dean Ambrose continue their feud. The Lunatic Fringe created an Asylum match, which places both competitors inside a Steel Cage with a bunch of bizarre weapons. This was the first time this bout ever took place, so did Ambrose or Jericho walk out of the show with a win?
Here’s a look at everything that happened in this Extreme Rules match.
Time for this Asylum match. How could this go?

Ambrose then had to find a way to wake the crowd up because this match just wasn’t working. He hit a big elbow drop from the top of the cage on to Jericho.
