7 things WWE subtly told us at Fastlane 2021: Edge makes a controversial mistake, 3 incredible WrestleMania matches confirmed?

#5. Apollo Crews lost at Fastlane, but he could be WrestleMania-bound

Big E and Apollo Crews

In what we thought was a fun match to watch at Fastlane, Apollo Crews challenged Big E for the Intercontinental Championship. There weren't any other matches that had the same level of bad blood.

While we don't feel it was the best match at Fastlane, it served its purpose. Big E went right at Apollo Crews from the start and he was wrestling at a high pace before Crews slowed him down.

The finish was an awkward one to watch, but Big E ended up getting Crews' shoulders pinned down to secure a lucky victory. Without a second to waste, Crews attacked Big E post-match and screamed that it wasn't over.

We're not sure what the direction for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania is, but it seems that Apollo Crews will be involved in it.

He deserves it after the year he has had. The big question is as to whether any other superstar will get involved in the picture.
