![]() Mustafa Ali w/ RetributionĪs one of the few people who have been on Retribution’s side this whole time (love the masks, music and the group), the writing was on the wall really that they weren’t going to takeover but I didn’t expect the inevitable crash just yet! Tensions were building between T-Bar, Slapjack, Mace & Reckoning and their angered leader Mustafa Ali leading to Fastlane and the real story here was not the US Title match but the boil over post-match events. (Kick-Off show) WWE United States Championship Match So, did this PPV get the pedal to the metal for WWE or was it a car wreck to 2021’s Mania momentum? Lets take a look at what went down!ġ. That said, this year’s line-up looked pretty decent, with many excellent workers paired up ( Shinsuke Nakamura battling – on his pal Cesaro’s behalf – against Seth Rollins), some storylines set to receive a much needed boost ( Randy Orton’s battle against The Fiend’s twisted devotee Alexa Bliss) and others set to change shape ( Roman Reigns and Edge’s Daniel Bryan problem). ![]() Now, going back across history, Fastlane has often been an up and down show, as the grandaddy of ‘em all’s big matches loom and seem to render much of this final stop PPV either as filler, predictable or the appetiser before the main course (or in this April’s case a two-night feast!). WrestleMania is within spitting distance (or rather reaching distance if we are being COVID conscious) but before we get there, we have the final road-themed WWE PPV on “the road to WrestleMania”, in WWE Fastlane.
