With every passing week, the anticipation grows for the show of shows, especially with the card already starting to take shape and many ongoing feuds gaining much-needed momentum before things are taken up a gear during the final stages just before the show.
What it also does is, it makes Fastlane a critical PPV for WWE because they would not want to suffer bad ratings on this one if people are to anticipate WrestleMania 35.
It would be important for WWE to serve a good product to its audience, especially after the Elimination Chamber in a way was not really that good. Fastlane, on the other hand, does have some intrigue around it, but there are still some things that should happen at the PPV to keep both the storylines and viewer interest running smoothly.
Here are a few things that should happen at the Fastlane PPV.
#1 The beginning of the Shane and Miz feud
Let's be honest, the only reason the tag team of Shane McMahon and The Miz was put in place was to ultimately result in a feud between Shane McMahon and The Miz, and in some ways it has been building up really well because we've seen a lot of indications of Shane being shown as the stronger of the two.
With WrestleMania just around a month away and not that many shows left, the timing would be perfect to pull the trigger on the feud at Fastlane. The duo could lose to the Usos with the Mizz being the reason for the loss yet again and this could lead to Shane's much-awaited heel turn, as he snaps on the Miz and beats him down.
This would bring a sense of something new as WWE hasn't featured Shane as a heel in a long long time, while the Miz himself has almost never been a babyface.
#2 Ronda Rousey interferes to beat down Becky again
One of the biggest reasons why this has to be the case is WWE needs to guard the third entity of the triple threat match. Charlotte has already been dominated by Becky for a long time and even lost to her again at the Royal Rumble where she was tossed off the ring.
Putting her in a match where the only stipulation for Becky to qualify for the match at WrestleMania is she has to beat Charlotte, really puts the Queen in a tight spot.
A way out could be Ronda again taking things in her hands, and in a quest to add Becky into the match, she interferes, attacking Becky yet again, which causes a disqualification and automatically adds Becky to the match.
We can't have either of the women lose the match cleanly, so this has to be one of the ways all three go into WrestleMania looking strong.
#3 The match between Kevin Owens and Daniel Bryan ends in a DQ
It's not a secret that this all seems a bit rushed. Kevin Owens just seems to have stepped back into the action, and even before the euphoria of his return could wear off, he's fighting for the title.
The feud itself has still not gathered steam and there's an added factor of Kofi Kingston lurking in the background. Switching belts at such an early stage of a feud would feel a bit premature and Kevin Owens losing his first big match since his return would just not fit in either.
A way out to actually help this feud grow and reach some substance could be by having Rowan interfere in the match, cause a disqualification, and beat up Owens. This could help the feud generate some steam.
In an added measure, Kofi Kingston could be added into the match at WrestleMania, and in turn, the match would become a triple threat match. This way, neither does Bryan lose his belt nor Owens look weak.
#4 Brock Lesnar appears and beats down Seth Rollins
Let's face it, Roman Reigns' return has actually affected the match between Brock Lesnar and Seth Rollins adversely. Currently, there's no hype or momentum attached to the match and what was supposed to be a battle against adversity for Seth Rollins to reach the ultimate prize in WWE has taken a backseat, as he's now focusing on reuniting with his brother and getting the "band" back together.
Instead, shouldn't the focus be on the biggest match of his career against an opponent that has dominated everything in his path?
Fastlane can provide a great opportunity for a reboot, as after the match we could see Brock making an appearance and beating up Seth Rollins just to remind him of what's in store at WrestleMania. This would help reignite the feud as well as generate some momentum for the match.
#5 The revival should retain the title
The signs are there that this would happen, as Roode and Gable were added to the match. WWE can't afford to let Aleister Black and Ricochet look weak by losing, and on the other hand, they need to keep the Revival as the champions because until now they haven't done anything of note.
And just because of this, we saw Bobby Roode and Chad Gable get added to the match. It's highly likely that the duo of Roode and Gable will take the loss and we could actually see the tag team division getting built around The Revival.
Ricochet and Black are not your traditional tag team, and even though they've currently beaten anything and everything put in front of them, we can't see them doing this for the long haul.
