WWE Fastlane: Randy Orton vs. Alexa Bliss (Intergender Match)
Intergender matches are rare in WWE, and Randy Orton's bout with Alexa Bliss marks the first one in nearly four years. Needless to say, this contest has generated a lot of conversation ahead of Sunday's show.
The rivalry between Bliss and Orton has taken a weird turn as of late, with the absurd supernatural activities turning the program into more of a comic rivalry. Even though WWE is promoting this as a match for Fastlane, it seems highly unlikely that Bliss and Orton will actually wrestle on Sunday.
The only bright thing about this encounter, so far, is that all signs point to a Bray Wyatt return to kick start his WrestleMania program with The Viper. Having Orton hit Bliss with an RKO before pinning her, only to be attacked by a returning Wyatt, seems like the most plausible route.
Given that WWE has spent almost half a year on this program, it's high time WWE brings Wyatt back. With WrestleMania right around the corner, it would be a disaster if Wyatt's absence continues beyond Fastlane
Prediction: Orton squashes Bliss; Brat Wyatt returns
WWE Fastlane: Seth Rollins vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
Even though this match was just announced this past Friday, it's still an anticipated clash between two highly respected performers.
While he hasn't been getting the push that he deserves, Shinsuke Nakamura has looked like a rejuvenated superstar this year. His monumental performance in the Gauntlet Match in January worked wonders for his caree. For this reason, he will be the perfect partner for Seth Rollins to get warmed up before WrestleMania.
If their previous encounter from Survivor Series 2018 is taken into consideration, the two decorated superstars share magical chemistry. If their match has enough time, these stars are capable of bringing the house down with their performances at Fastlane.
Despite the lack of build for this match, one can expect these two to give the fans a solid, hard-hitting contest. As far as the outcome is concerned, Rollins is the favorite to emerge victorious and build momentum for his WrestleMania bout.
But don't be surprised if a distraction by Cesaro leads to The Messiah's downfall and a victory for The Artist at Fastlane.
Prediction: Seth Rollins demolishes Shinsuke Nakamura
