WWE Over the Limit
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Over the Limit is a professional wrestling event held yearly by WWE, and aired live only on pay-per-view (PPV). The first one was held in 2010, taking the place of Judgment Day in the May slot of WWE's pay-per-view calendar.
As is the case with most lower level PPV's made by WWE, the event has been held only in arenas in the United States. Championship bouts are scheduled on every card, with the lower level title matches on the undercard and the top level featured on the main card. Under the Brand Extension, WWE assigns its performers to either Raw or SmackDown which cause matches to be set up between wrestlers on the same show.[1]
