WWE Fastlane 2019: Results, Highlights, and Review
WWE Fastlane is the final stop on the “Road to WrestleMania,” and tonight’s event will have major implications for WWE’s biggest show of the year. With seven matches and two scheduled for the Kickoff Show, Fastlane is looking like a must-see show.
WWE Fastlane comes to us tonight from the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio and things will set the stage for WrestleMania 35. With six championship matches, Becky Lynch’s bid to get back to WrestleMania, and the return of The Shield, it’s hard not to be excited.
The Kickoff Show may not have the same stakes as some of the other night’s matches, but don’t think for a second that means you shouldn’t watch it. We’ve got The New Day facing off with Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev in what is sure to be a great contest. Either team picking up a win could put them on the path for a title shot as WrestleMania nears.
On the main card, things all build to the final clash between Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. If Lynch wins, she’ll be back in the Raw Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania 35. It’s far from the only match with title implications, though.
We were also initially scheduled to see Andrade vs. Rey Mysterio on the Kickoff Show, but it was changed during the Kickoff Show. Instead, we’ll get a rematch of the US Championship Fatal 4-Way from SmackDown Live featuring Samoa Joe, R-Truth, Andrade, and Rey Mysterio.

In the tag team scene, we’ve got The Usos defending against The Miz and Shane McMahon, and don’t forget Mr. Miz (The Miz’s father) will be at ringside tonight in Miz’s hometown. The Revival defend their titles in a triple threat against the teams of Aleister Black & Ricochet and Chad Gable & Bobby Roode.
We’ll also see The Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection defend the Women’s Tag Team Titles for the first time against Nia Jax & Tamina. The night’s third women’s match will see “The Empress of Tomorrow” Asuka defend the SmackDown Women’s Championship against Mandy Rose, but Sonya Deville will surely have a presence at ringside.
WWE Champion Daniel Bryan finds himself in an unlikely defense against the recently returning Kevin Owens, but fans must be wondering how Kofi Kingston will feel as the match is happening. Finally, we’ve got the return of The Shield as Roman Reigns joins forces with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins one final time to take on Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley.
