This year's Fastlane event is now just days away and there are only four matches officially announced for the card. There were only six matches announced for last month's Elimination Chamber match and it could be argued that the shows are much shorter since the brand split, but Fastlane 2017 could be the exception to this rule.

Last year's Fastlane was the first non-WrestleMania pay-per-view to take place in March and boasted the longest card that the event has ever had with 10 matches. Five of these matches were straightforward one-on-one matches whilst the Raw Tag Team Championships, Cruiserweight Championship, Raw Women's Championship and the Universal Championships were all on the line.

This years event could set the record for having the least amount of matches in the history of the event since 2015 boasted seven, 2016 had eight and this year has only four.
