WWE Fastlane was a surprisingly good show and with it now behind us, the road to WrestleMania is well and truly here. Fastlane saw every champion on SmackDown retain their title.
What's in store for us tonight? A lot. The biggest story from the blue brand at Fastlane was Shane McMahon turning on his tag-team partner The Miz after the duo lost their tag-title match against The Usos. Shane even manhandled The Miz's dad. Tonight, Shane will explain the reason behind his actions.
Also on the show, Samoa Joe defends the United States Championship against former champion R-Truth.
Vince McMahon will also be on SmackDown tonight to address what he did to Kofi Kingston last week. Don't be surprised if he screws over Kofi Kingston once again.
Vince McMahon addresses his treatment of Kofi Kingston
Kofi Kingston was all set to face WWE Champion Daniel Bryan at Fastlane until Vince McMahon stepped in and replaced him with the returning Kevin Owens. Then at Fastlane, Vince made Kofi Kingston wait outside his office for an hour before making Kofi think he was finally added to the WWE title match. Instead, he faced The Bar in a handicap match and got destroyed.
Mr McMahon will be on WWE SmackDown tonight and explain to Kofi Kingston and the WWE Universe, the reason behind his actions.
Huge tag-team match
Aleister Black and Ricochet will team up with The Hardy Boyz to face The Bar, Rusev and Shinsuke Nakamura. This is a great spot for Black and Ricochet, teaming up with one of the greatest tag-teams of all time.
Who will come out with the big win tonight? We don't have to wait long to find out.
Samoa Joe puts the US title on the line
Samoa Joe will defend the WWE US Championship on the line against R-Truth tonight on SmackDown. Truth be told, no pun intended, R-Truth has an uphill battle tonight. Joe outclasses him in strength, size and power and could put him to sleep.
Shane McMahon explains why he attacked The Miz
Fastlane saw Shane McMahon turn on his tag-team partner The Miz after the lost their title match against The Usos. What led Shane McMahon to snap? Surely the Tag-Team Championship doesn't mean this much to Shane McMahon that he attacked his friend.
Shane McMahon will be appearing on tonight's episode of SmackDown to explain why he did what he did at WrestleMania. This seems to all but confirm the rumours that Shane McMahon will be going one-on-one with The Miz at WrestleMania 35.
