As for the WWE Universal Championship match, Roman Reigns had to relinquish it after his health scare. It was then won by Brock Lesnar at WWE Crown Jewel after beating Braun Strowman, who was screwed over by acting RAW GM Baron Corbin. Lesnar will now face the winner of the 2019 men's Royal Rumble- Seth Rollins - at WrestleMania.

The heart of the matter

The current plans for the WrestleMania main events are a triple threat match for the RAW Women's Championship between Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch although this depends on if Becky Lynch can beat Charlotte at WrestleMania.

In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer revealed details about original plans for the WrestleMania 35 main event:

What's next?

Becky Lynch faces Charlotte Flair at WWE Fastlane this Sunday. The stakes are massive for Lynch heading into this match. If she beats Charlotte Flair at Fastlane, Becky Lynch will get slotted into the RAW Women's Championship at WrestleMania. Lynch is now a 3-count away from headlining WrestleMania 35 but will have an uphill battle after getting battered by Ronda Rousey earlier this week on WWE RAW
