#1. Worst: The overall build to Fastlane on SmackDown

There are only three matches announced for Fastlane 2021, and all are from SmackDown. This has raised a question in almost every WWE fans' mind - why have a pay-per-view two weeks before WrestleMania, especially one that has been given no importance.

For many of the feuds on RAW and SmackDown, they seem too big to happen at Fastlane. We're not sure what WWE's endgame is here, but it seems to be a pay-per-view for the sake of having one.

Next week will be the go-home episode of SmackDown to Fastlane 2021, and we hope to see some more matches announced. It could end up being a very short card that lasts less than three hours.

The pandemic era in WWE has seen pay-per-view runtime drastically reduce - including WrestleMania - which will be spread across two days. But looking at the build to WWE Fastlane 2021 on both RAW and SmackDown, one could argue that they would be better off as free TV matches instead.
