WWF Over the Edge was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event that was produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), a Connecticut-based professional wrestling promotion. The first event was produced as the 22nd In Your House event in May 1998. After the In Your House branding was discontinued following its February 1999 event, Over the Edge branched off as its own PPV in May that year, which was the first of the In Your House events to do so. However, this second event would be the last Over the Edge held due to the death of WWF wrestler Owen Hart at the event. In 2000, the event's pay-per-view slot was replaced by Judgment Day.
Stone Cold Steve Austin was featured in the main event of both Over the Edge events, defending the WWF Championship at both. Vince McMahon also served as a special guest referee in both of these matches. The first event was also the first WWF pay-per-view event to have a TV Parental Guidelines rating of TV-14.
