Braun Strowman and Shane McMahon are seemingly set to compete in a singles match at Fastlane. Despite reports suggesting that WWE has nixed the match from the event, the company is yet to officially announce or release any sort of statement in regards to the match being canceled.

Leading up to the Fastlane pay-per-view, WWE has done a pretty formidable job in initiating a feud between the two Superstars. However, right from the get-go, it did seem like WWE was planting the seeds for a potential match between Braun Strowman and Shane McMahon at WrestleMania 37.

While there is confusion about the status of the match, there is no doubt the two men could spice up an already stacked Fastlane card.

Here are the 5 possible conclusions that could go down at the WWE ThunderDome if Strowman and Shane do cross paths in the ring.


#5. Braun Strowman comprehensively beats Shane McMahon and builds momentum for WrestleMania 37

Braun Strowman is best known for his ability to absolutely annihilate his opponents in and out of the ring. Given that Shane McMahon hasn't competed in a WWE ring for a while, chances are Strowman is going to do pretty much the same with him at Fastlane.

At this stage, Braun Strowman is definitely the one more in need of a victory. Hence, the outcome of his match should be a no-brainer, as all WWE has to do is book Strowman in a victory over Shane.

Creative could do that by having The Monster Among Men absolutely destroy Shane, building some much-needed momentum on the Road To WrestleMania 37. Assuming that Strowman will be featured on one of the two nights at 'Mania, the former WWE Universal Champion could do with a dominant victory at Fastlane.

#4. WWE cancels Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon during the show and plays along with the storyline

With reports suggesting that Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon has been pulled off tonight's Fastlane card, the two men might not be facing off after all.

However, WWE is yet to release an official statement on the match and could play along by implementing the cancelation of the match into the storyline. The company officials could call off Strowman vs. Shane, while the pay-per-view is on-air and instead initiate the build-up to a match between the two for WrestleMania 37.


#3. Braun Strowman destroys Shane McMahon before the match even begins

Following Shane McMahon's slime attack on Braun Strowman from Monday Night RAW, the latter is expected to be in a foul mood. However, WWE could get the former Universal Champion back on track by having him destroy Shane before the scheduled match between the two kicks off.

In doing so, WWE could set up a WrestleMania 37 clash between the two.

#2. Shane McMahon pulls off the win over Braun Strowman by reintroducing Dabba Kato

Braun Strowman has a long history with Dabba Kato. The two men collided in one of the most highly-anticipated matches on RAW Underground a few months ago. Strowman was also the Superstar responsible for handing Kato his first loss in WWE. Creative could use this plot to bring the latter back on WWE TV.

Kato has lost his push in WWE since RAW Underground was brought to a close. However, McMahon could use his authority powers to reintroduce Kato and let him have a go at Braun Strowman.

In doing so, not only will Dabba Kato get some much-needed momentum but it would also allow Shane to secure victory over Strowman at Fastlane.


#1. Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon ends in a quick No Contest which leads to a No DQ match at WrestleMania 37

One of the best possible ways to pull off Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon at Fastlane would be to have the two men wrestle to a quick No Contest. This result would give WWE the perfect reason to book a rematch between the two for WrestleMania 37.

The majority of the WWE Universe would prefer to have Shane McMahon compete in a surrounding full of foreign objects. A No DQ match at The Grandest Stage of Them All could bring the best out of both McMahon and Strowman.
