rajah.com/node/33724 Vince said on twitter that this may be the last of Extreme Rules. To me Extreme Rules is one of my favorite ppvs of the year because it is the only time WWE goes TV14
Don't see him anywhere saying this could be the last Extreme Rules pay-per-view. Seems like a worked tweet to go with all the injuries that have led up to this pay-per-view.

Nowhere did he say that this would be the last Extreme Rules, and I highly doubt it would be. It's one of there most successful PPV's outside of the Big 4. And even though they call it Extreme Rules, most of what they do is very safe compared to hardcore matches of 90's and early 2000's.
I doubt it will be the last Extreme Rules. Its my favorite PPV of the year next to WrestleMania. Probably just a way of selling up the PPV as brutal as it can be.
Even though I find Extreme Rules to be one of the better PPVs each year in recent years, I stand by my belief that the gimmick PPVs should be done away with completely and the PPV calendar should look like this:
JAN - Royal Rumble FEB - No Way Out MAR - WrestleMania APR - Backlash MAY - Judgment Day JUN - King of the Ring JUL - Vengeance AUG - Summerslam SEP - Unforgiven OCT - No Mercy NOV - Survivor Series DEC - Armageddon
Well, on Twitter, Vince said that he was nervous about injuries and would have his fingers crossed until it's over. Punk is gone for now, Ziggler is hurt, Cena is semi-hurt. Imagine if a few more go down or out for a while. I've always loved the extreme matches, but I get why Vince would put an end to it. From a business standpoint, it makes sense. And as we know "It's all about the monayyyy"

Anyways, there's no way WWE is going to recycle back in like 6-7 old PPV names from 5+ years ago... If anything they will be new names.
The names and PPVs, social media, etc. don't bother me personally. I just watch WWE for the character progression and the wrestling.
