My Way too early Fastlane card predictions:
DVDBSCAWAAEyeKM

Fan made poster (credit- @Madtrillainy)

WWE Championship- Styles v Owens v Zayn v Orton- I know that KO and Sami are facing off against each other this Tuesday for this match. However I smell something fishy.

John Cena calls out The Undertaker- Cena has been advertised for this ppv. So this would be a nice place for the two to have a stare down.

Tag Titles- Usos v Bludgeon Brothers Tornado Tag- This match could potentially be amazing. They could hold off on this match and do it at Mania tho.

Woman's Championship- Charlotte v Ruby Riott- Its a safe bet that Charlotte is strutting into Mania as champ. Ruby's a good wrestler right? This match could be decent.

US Title- Roode v Tye Dillinger- You are probably asking yourself, who the fuck is Tye Dillinger? This Tuesday, I feel that we will see a double turn between Rusev and Roode. So I think Tye would be a good babyface for Roode to defeat going into Mania.

Rusev v Corbin- The newly face turned Rusev against big bad Baron Corbin. Makes sense.

New Day v Jinder, Benjamin and Gable- This feels like pre show.

So yeah... that's my way too early ppv card prediction. I was thinking of having Rousey v Becky in a number 1 contenders match. But that feels very far fetched right now.

What do you guys think about Fastlane this year? Cuz I don't think there has ever been a good Fastlane.

That looks like a solid card...but...

No Nakamura? I'm pretty sure the main event was "leaked" and its going to be
Styles vs. Owens vs. Zayn vs. Orton vs. Nakamura in a Fatal 5 Way. Of course
the WWE could have changed their minds.

If I was booking Wrestlemania...the United States title would be defended in a
7 man ladder match between Roode, Rusev, Corbin, Mahal, Dillinger, Kingston
& Zayn...so the matches you've predicted here are perfect for that build/set up.

And yes I'd have Rusev go over at Wrestlemania because Rusev Day...

Also...I think the ladies need another match on card...but who really knows what
they could book? Sarah Logan & Liv Morgan vs. Natalya & Carmella vs. Becky
& Naomi?

From all reports Asuka will be challenging Charlotte at Warestlemania...so the
SmackDown women's division is once again probably going to be neglected
& discarded coming into Wrestlemania again...which is complete & utter bullshit.

I'm pretty sure that match is off the table. I think the "leak" was intentional, to throw the scent off Nakamura winning the rumble.

Fastlane ppv is all about who is facing Nakamura at Mania. It would be nice to not have Nakamura wrestle until WrestleMania.

If I was booking Wrestlemania...the United States title would be defended in a
7 man ladder match
That's funny cuz I have different plans...
I was thinking the ladder match will be for the SD tag titles. Feel like that division is a lot more sexy at the moment. Usos, Benjamin Gable, New Day and KO and Sami fucking each other up in a ladder match. I think that's a lot more attractive. (Wait wtf did I just say?)

If I was booking it, I would have heel Roode v Face Rusev. All the other boys like Corbin, Mahal, Dillinger and Mojo can be in the ATGMBR. (Everybody knows that acronym, right?)

Sarah Logan & Liv Morgan vs. Natalya & Carmella vs.
Yeah that works lol. Its not uncommon for Smackdown to put all the woman in one match. Mind you tho, Becky and Naomi seem to have a bit of competitive rivalry going into Mania.

I'm gonna be a spoilt brat because obviously Charlotte v Asuka would be great. I would prefer Asuka v Sasha and Charlotte v Becky/Rousey. But that's probably not gonna happen... If its Alexa v Jax, I'm just gonna check out Bliss' mania outfit and the go to the bathroom...to err...empty my bladder...

Maybe? I guess? I'd much rather see Nakamura score a
couple of solid victories so he build some momentum.

If Wrestlemania 33 was any indication to go by I wouldn't be surprised if the
entire SmackDown tag division get shoved into the ATGMBR. In fact pretty
much everyone besides the women should expect that treatment.

*Thinks*

Maybe give the women a Wrestlemania battle royal as well? Maybe?

I guess I'd be more interested in seeing a SmackDown mid-card ladder match
than a tag division one...but realistically it doesn't matter...as long as the matches
they book are entertaining.

The SmackDown women's division is a complete mess at the moment with
no one really having any focus apart from Charlotte being the champion.

The division is still completely unbalanced with 7 heels to 3 faces & I'm
personally over the Riott Squad's 3 on 1 or 3 on 2 gang attacks.

Plus certain women are disappearing from the main shows to take part in
the pointless Mixed Match Challenge...which isn't helping the entire division
as far as storytelling goes.

I'm gonna be a spoilt brat because obviously Charlotte v Asuka would be great. I would prefer Asuka v Sasha and Charlotte v Becky/Rousey. But that's probably not gonna happen...

Well...I want/wanted Charlotte vs. Becky & Asuka vs. Sasha at Wrestlemania...
but Charlotte vs. Asuka will be my own personal main event while Alexa vs. Nia
will most likely be the worst worked match on the card...because both of them
are sub-par workers...and frankly I'm sick of Alexa Bliss...and not in a positive
way.

But hey...we are getting Styles vs. Nakamura...so that at least is a huge positive
for Wrestlemania 34.

That would be a shame. I think the Smackdown Tag Division has been really good the last few months. The Usos deserve a place on the main card. That is a big worry tho, since the roster is so big and there are only so many places on the card.

Oh I agree...perhaps a 4 Way Tornado tag match for the titles...

The Usos vs. New Day vs. Harper & Rowan vs. Gable & Benjamin?

Maybe Rusev Day instead of Gable & Benjamin if Rusev isn't in the
U.S title picture?

I'm actually more concerned about Sasha Banks & Becky Lynch missing
out on the Wrestlemania card...

:disapprove:

Yeah me too. More worried about Becky tho. It seems like Sasha is going up in the world at the moment. Meanwhile , Lynch...not so much. Even though Becky is without a doubt my favorite woman's wrestler, her having a big role at Mania is unlikely. Well at least she isn't in a worse state then "Just" Bayley.

BTW I really don't like Nia Jax. The reason why? She actually thinks she has a good three dimensional character. I maybe wrong, but she comes off extremely arrogant. She's a bad actor, a mediocre wrester and (despite what she thinks) has a piss poor character. She can only have a good match with Sasha. At least Alexa has a good character and can cut a promo.

I really hope Asuka goes after the Raw title, so we don't have to see Jax v Bliss. Its weird that woman's wrestling can be good in some areas but terrible in others.

Sasha is going up in the world?

Okay...so I'm not trying to argue...but Sasha in recent weeks has:
~ Been "squashed" by Sonya Deville...
~ Went 50 minutes in the Rumble only to be eliminated by 2 part timers...
&
~ Lost to Asuka the next night...

The WWE is simply using Sasha to make others look good...and I worry
that she will spend her entire WWE career doing that instead of finally
having a decent & strong title reign including multiple successful title
defenses.

Every time Sasha talks about how good she is or what she's going to
achieve...she's booked to be defeated cleanly making her look...well...
pathetic.

No one likes a loser...

Sasha, Becky & Bayley have all been victims of 50/50 booking & the
seemingly never ending push of Alexa Bliss.

Its a real shame...but...that's just my opinion.

Yeah I get were your coming from. Sasha has been booked poorly. But recently her character has intrigued me and I see it going somewhere.

Yeah...I agree...BUT again...the WWE has been "teasing"
a Sasha heel turn for more than year now...and they didn't
follow up after the Rumble with her eliminating Bayley...
so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Plus if she isn't in the title picture (which I hope she is) I
doubt the creative team will do more with her than have
her pinned by Alexa, Nia & Asuka.

I have feeling that Sasha will win the chamber and face Asuka at WrestleMania. I don't know why. I just have that prediction. If Sasha hasn't impressed WWE with her recent performances, then its clear she is just there to have great matches and put people.

I think heard somewhere that WWE were thinking of doind Sasha v Trish. That's pretty cool. Why not do Alexa and Jax v Trish and Lita/Mickie. I'm just fantasy booking now.

  • New Day over Usos
  • Riott over Charlotte
  • Roode over Orton due in part to interference by Mahal, setting up a three-way at Mania
  • Now depending on who will be facing Cena at Mania, either Undertaker or Strowman will interfere in the six-way and Styles will retain.
