Cesaro isn't competing at Fastlane, but his former tag team partner Shinsuke Nakamura is. At first, Seth Rollins tried to recruit Cesaro, but after getting turned down, he eventually assaulted him and took him out.

Nakamura came out the following week on SmackDown and attacked Rollins - getting a measure of revenge for his partner. It was then announced that Seth Rollins would be facing Shinsuke Nakamura at Fastlane 2021.

This match is likely going to link back to Cesaro, who will be expected to challenge Rollins at WrestleMania 37. The outcome of this match seems a bit certain - Seth Rollins is expected to win.

It will be the former Universal Champion's first pay-per-view match since his return, but things could take a different turn. After Rollins beats Nakamura, it would be the perfect setup for Cesaro to return. Rather than getting the better of Seth Rollins, Shinsuke Nakamura could turn on Cesaro and beat him down - joining Rollins in the process at Fastlane.
