Predicting the 8-match card of WWE Fastlane

#6 The Shield vs Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin, & Bobby Lashley

The notorious trio of McIntyre, Lashley, and Corbin have done absolutely nothing of worth ever since they banded together months ago. Their usual shtick consists of attacking Braun Strowman from the back, a storyline which never got an actual payoff.

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

The team is getting on the nerves of the WWE Universe, and what better way to put an end to the dastardly trio then pitting them against the most dominant team in modern times: The Shield!

After Reigns made a shocking comeback last week on Raw, he managed to convince Dean Ambrose to join him and Rollins again, which led to the match at Fastlane. There's absolutely no way The Shield is losing here, except if Dean turns heel again.

If Dean turns heel and costs The Shield this match, it will lead to a Reigns vs Ambrose match at WrestleMania. My money though is on The Shield winning the match in what could possibly be the final Shield match before Dean departs.

Winners: The Shield

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
