WWE Fastlane 2016: Last-Minute Preview and Predictions for Top Matches at PPV
We got our answer for Styles-Jericho III, some interesting developments in the Divas division and a fantastic main event. This is with the belief that the Wyatt Family will get involved and cost Lesnar his chance. It was thought that just hardcore, internet fans wanted more for Ambrose. Instead of Lesnar, he would be defending his title in a five-way match against Owens, Dolph Ziggler, Tyler Breeze and Stardust. With that being said, here are the matches for Fastlane 2016. There was no need for Cole with Owens out there.
And while it’s not a match, expect entertainment and fireworks, trombones and kazoos, when tag champs The New Day join Edge & Christian on a talk show segment, The Cutting Edge Peep Show!
Newcomer Styles is tied at one win apiece with the legendary Jericho and the rubber match will take place at Fastlane. Xavier Woods plays the trombone while Kofi and Big E dance. Brie replied by letting her know that she won’t be an easy opponent and kicking her out of the ring. “Our mecca is coming up just around the corner in WrestleMania, and it’s the most exciting time of year to be a wrestler and be a wrestling fan”.
The legendary Y2J himself, taking on the TNA veteran and WWE newcomer AJ Styles in a match of charisma, skill and experience. To Jericho’s credit, he’s done a tremendous job allowing younger/newer talent to get over at his expense during his limited appearances, and it should happen again on Sunday with Styles pulling off a clean win. Soon after, he locked in the Calf Crusher and forced Miz to tap.
“She can do whatever she wants to do”, Lesnar said.
The Dudleys came to the ring and teased tables, before putting them away.
The Dudley Boyz had a promo explaining their heel turn last week, stating that their legacy is being nine time champions and they’re not just a nostalgia act. The last time Brock was on Smackdown Eddie Guerrero was the World Champion, Ronald Reagan was still alive, and Win A Date With Tad Hamilton hadn’t been released in theaters yet. This is the sort of women’s match that should be happening every week, making it clear that there is depth in the division. Reigns is the champion.
Summer Rae defeated Paige when Paige took too long to lock in the PTO, so Summer Rae rolled her up & pinned her for the 1-2-3.
With a Reigns win Sunday, it will be another instance in which he’s gotten the better of Ambrose, his best buddy.
– R-Truth and Goldust are backstage rapping to each other and Truth says he still won’t be his partner. Since it will be contested under Triple Threat Match rules, there is technically no disqualification. There was a thrilling trio dive from the high-flying babyface team, but that was about all that stuck out in the match.
When Kalisto entered with Sin Cara, Eden Stiles still mentioned that he was “Slammy Award winning”, which seems like forever ago. I like it! Regardless, I think we have a potential show-stealer here with Del Rio regaining the USA title in a match that goes all three falls. Becky Lynch beat Naomi after locking in the Disarmer. However, Charlotte is expected to retain her title, as she is already slated to face Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 32. The Game and his wife Stephanie McMahon will be watching to see who challenges their Authority at WrestleMania. WWE has 6 weeks to buildup the match properly and there would be so many ways to elevate the storyline. It was then that Kane’s pyro hit and the Demon appeared from underneath the ring. Logical, controversy while going off the air isn’t a bad thing. These pairs are going to face off on Sunday night. It seems as if WrestleMania season is finally finding its groove.
