The 2011 Over the Limit was the second annual Over the Limit professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It was held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. The event took place on May 22, 2011, at the KeyArena in Seattle, Washington. The name "Over the Limit" was a reference to its main event match being contested as an "I Quit" match. It was the final Over the Limit held during the first brand extension, which ended in August.

Nine matches took place during the event, eight of which were broadcast live on pay-per-view. In the main event, John Cena retained Raw's WWE Championship by defeating The Miz in an "I Quit" match. Elsewhere on the card, Wade Barrett retained SmackDown's Intercontinental Championship against Ezekiel Jackson, Big Show and Kane retained the WWE Tag Team Championship against The New Nexus (CM Punk and Mason Ryan), Brie Bella retained the WWE Divas Championship against Kelly Kelly, and Randy Orton retained SmackDown's World Heavyweight Championship against Christian.

Over the Limit received 140,000 buys worldwide, significantly down from the 2010 edition's 197,000 buys.
