WWE Fast Lane 2017
Pre-Show:
Brian Kendrick & Noam Dar vs Rich Swann & Akira Tozawa
Interesting to see a tag team match for the cruiserweights rather than just a random six man match. Especially with the developing feud between Tozawa and Kendrick; with the more meaningful matches for the cruiserweights it'll help them get over more with the fans which would help the division overall.
Sasha Banks vs Nia Jax
The rematch of the Royal Rumble between the undefeated Jax and the Underdog of Banks. In my opinion it is getting to the point where Nia is running out of challengers to face and even though she may not be undefeated anymore but still Sasha has seemingly been struggling with the win column. Also with her being almost crushed at the Royal Rumble by Nia it is pretty clear that Banks could get the win and open the division up for a big match at WrestleMania. I would wager a guess to say that Sasha needs the win and it would be pretty easy for Nia to get her heat back even with Banks getting the win.
WWE Tag Team Title Match
(c) Anderson & Gallows vs Enzo & Big Cass
After months of feeding them to the New Day and showing their weakness with comedic segments and a poor doctor gimmick. Starting with the feud they had with Cesaro and Sheamus we have seen almost all of their stock back up to a positive place. After months of being seen here and there a feud with Rusev brought some momentum back for the team, but I do think that they are still next to bullet proof. Considering the fact that Enzo and Cass have yet to hold championship gold on any level in the WWE I don't see there first win comes this close to Mania. With that being said Anderson and Gallows will get the win and retain the gold.
WWE Cruiserweight Title Match:
(c) Neville vs Jack Gallagher
The division has had a rough time since the beginning of things back in September, but we seem to be getting on more stable ground right now with names like Neville and Jack Gallagher really getting over with the fans. I'm going to keep this one short by saying that the best way for the division to continue moving to stable ground us allowing a credible heel to carry the title for a long time. Which means that I think Neville should walk away with the title tonight.
Samoa Joe vs Sami Zayn
I have big hopes for this match with such talent in this match and even though I don't have much to say about this match, I will say that this match has me most excited for any match on the show and even though I have not see much of this feud over the last few weeks. But either way I do believe that giving Samoa Joe the win in his first big match on the Main Roster.
WWE Women's Title Match:
(c) Bayley vs Charlotte
Well here we go again it's time for the Raw Women's division to have another title match that we all may know the ending to and that's an unfortunate turn of events for the division that is really losing fanfare with every PPV. I would like to think that the WWE will not go with the predictable choice, but more so go with the logical choice of Bayley. In my opinion Bayley should be the choice to win this match tonight.
Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman
Honestly, I have really liked the build for this feud and so far it has done well for both talents over the last few weeks. Since the start of the brad split we have seen quite a push for Braun as an unbeatable monster heel and one of the better parts of Monday Night Raw. Roman has been bullet proof for three years at least and could afford a loose, but Braun has also almost been bullet proof for nearly a year since he debuted. The links provided go through Braun's push and Roman's problems as well. I have loved the development of Braun's push and am firm believer that an undefeated streak is suppose to end a certain way. With that being said I believe Braun should get the win tonight.
WWE Universal Title Match:
(c) Kevin Owens vs Goldberg
The match that I never thought I would see ever!! For the last 12 years most fans have just wondered if Goldberg would ever be able to be inducted into the Hall of Fame due to his tumultuous relationship with Vince and the WWE. Well that was all put to bed late last year when "Da Man" returned to the company to face Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series last year. With a side track from the big picture that being his feud with Brock we are about to see Kevin get his biggest challenge yet. Though his age maybe a factor for most fans I am thinking of it as a win for Goldberg would bring much needed value to the Universal title and would give a marque match for the title at WrestleMania. Not saying that Owens vs Jericho wouldn't be, but Goldberg vs Lesnar would be a bigger match which is needed for the title. Honestly, I would love to see Owens shock the world and defeat Goldberg, but I don't see that happening. Goldberg will get the third World title of his career tonight with a win here.
