The Fastlane 2019 PPV has now come and gone. The show met the expectations with pretty much every match delivering in accordance with their hype.

Sasha Banks and Bayley successfully defended their women's tag-team championship against Nia Jax and Tamina, The Uso Brothers defeated Shane McMahon and The Miz, while Daniel Bryan retained his WWE Championship in an amazing triple-threat match.

Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair saw interference from Ronda Rousey which led to Becky winning the match via Disqualification. Becky will now be added to the Women's title match at WrestleMania.

The main event of the night saw the Shield join forces for the final time against Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley, and Baron Corbin.

Now the most important question coming out of the show is what the WWE could be planning for Monday's episode of Raw?

Here are the three biggest things WWE could be planning for Monday Night Raw.

#1 Drew McIntyre attacks Roman Reigns to set up a match at WrestleMania

Roman Reigns returned to Monday Night Raw a few weeks ago and announced that he is all set to make his return to the WWE ring.

His wish of reuniting The Shield was fulfilled when Dean Ambrose saved his brothers from the heel team of Bobby Lashley, Baron Corbin, and Drew McIntyre.

The Shield teamed up for the one final time at the Fastlane pay-per-view and defeated Corbin, Lashley, and McIntyre. The legendary trio won the match by eviscerating Baron Corbin with the vintage Shield Bomb.

While Baron Corbin was the one getting pinned in the match, it was Drew McIntyre who mocked the Roman Reigns' war cry and got powerbombed through the announcer's table.

Ever since Drew McIntyre made his return to the main roster, he has been on a roll. He was booked similar to how Roman Reigns is booked since his arrival on the WWE.

Since both guys have nothing to do at WrestleMania and they will certainly be featured in prominent matches, I wouldn't be surprised if WWE books them against each other and plant the seeds on this week's Raw.

A match between these guys will provide a boost to the WrestleMania card, and if McIntyre beats Roman Reigns at the biggest stage, it will do wonders for his career.

#2: Seth Rollins calls out Brock Lesnar

In the episode of Raw following the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, Seth Rollins made his intentions known as he challenged Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35.

Rollins attacked Lesnar, but the Beast Incarnate gained the upper hand and put Rollins down with six destructive F-5's. Seth Rollins sold the maneuver by taking a week off.

Seth Rollins returned to Raw a week later and addressed the situation, but was interrupted by Paul Heyman who stated that his client would retain the Universal championship. Rollins fired back and vowed to defeat the beast at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Since Rollins was dealing with a minor back injury, there has been no physical altercation between the two, and the absence of Brock Lesnar has hurt the build-up of the match.

WWE needs to do something to keep the fans interested in the match, and tomorrow night is as good as any. Rollins calling out Lesnar or even getting in the face of Paul Heyman backstage will make for good TV time.

Hopefully, we get to see the storyline getting progressed further tomorrow night on Monday Night Raw.

#3 Dean Ambrose addresses his departure

Dean Ambrose looks to be all set to leave the WWE once his contract expires. He teamed up with his brothers at the Fastlane PPV as we got to hear the WWE using the word "one final time" for a considerable amount of time.

Last month, WWE.com broke the news that Ambrose will leave the company once his contract expires but this is not the type of protocol the WWE usually follows when announcing the departure of their superstars.

I remember the episode of Raw where Ambrose sat on a chair and tried to address the crowd before he was interrupted by Nia Jax. It looked like he was going to address the crowd about his situation.

I hope the WWE is working us all and at the end of the day it all turns out to be an angle. If not, then the company trying to make most of the time left for Dean in the company is the right thing to do.

Let's wait and watch if the smoke clears on this upcoming episode of Monday Night Raw.
