WWE Fastlane has come and gone and it was definitely quite a good PPV, especially for the traditional pre-Mania show. WWE didn't pull off as many surprises as a lot of fans expected, which isn't surprising this close to WrestleMania.

We also found out a number of things from the way WWE booked Fastlane especially as some of WWE's decisions give an insight into the possible card at WrestleMania 35 later this April including the main-event which will now be a triple threat match for the WWE RAW Women's Championship.

#5 The RAW Women's Championship storyline is too convoluted

Too many twists and turns can ruin any storyline

The RAW Women's Championship storyline at WrestleMania has had too many twists and turns. Although sometimes twists are good, it was almost like WWE made some of the decisions they did just to shock fans on the road to WrestleMania.

In my opinions, what WWE tried to portray didn't even work because we all knew Becky Lynch would get added to the title match at WrestleMania. Having Rousey destroy Becky Lynch on RAW last week before helping her beat Charlotte and Fastlane just makes no sense. This storyline could have been much simpler and more effective.


#4 WrestleMania looks set to be great

I wrote an article before WWE Fastlane talking about the decisions WWE could make at Fastlane and what kind of impact they may have on WrestleMania in April. I'm glad to sy that I think WWE made all the right decisions at Fastlane and we look set for a stellar WrestleMania card.

Like we suspected, WrestleMania will be headlined the RAW Women's championship as Ronda Rousey defends against Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair.

WrestleMania could also see Dean Ambrose's last match in WWE but more on that later.

#3 Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville's partnership could end soon

We know that Mr. McMahon himself is a big fan of Mandy Rose and giving Mandy her first shot at a title at Fastlane is the first step. In pushing her to the top.

One thing that came out of WWE Fastlane, pretty clearly, was that Rose and Deville may be parting ways soon especially after Deville accidentally cost her the match against Asuka.

#2 Roman Reigns will still be heavily pushed

Now that Roman Reigns is back, some fans have on the question in mind, how long time WWE push Roman to the moon again, annoying a certain section of the WWE Universe.

It was clear to see from WWE Fastlane that Roman Reigns is still a top guy in the WWE and don't be surprised if he's back in the title picture in a couple of months.

#1 Dean Ambrose is definitely leaving WWE

We all thought this one was a work when the news first broke after the WWE Royal Rumble 2019 but now it looks to be confirmed almost beyond a doubt - Dean Ambrose is leaving the WWE after his current contract runs out following WrestleMania 35.

We saw The Shield team up at WWE Fastlane for what could be the last time as they faced the massive team of Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley.

Despite the cards being stacked against the Hounds of Justice, they fought hard and eventually left WWE Fastlane with another win for themselves. However, we all saw how The Shield reacted after the much in a group hug. This wasn't just for Roman beating leukaemia and returning, it was also for Dean Ambrose leaving the WWE which signals the end of an era for The Shield.
