Updated WWE Fastlane Lineup Including The Shield’s Return, Lynch vs. Flair Again and More
The next WWE pay-per-view is Fastlane, this Sunday, March 10 in Cleveland. This week on Raw, WWE set up a couple of big matches although no titles will be on the line in those matches.
The Shield trio of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose reunited again and they will face off with the heel team of Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley. That match could be the main event of the show since it’s a Shield reunion as well as Roman’s first match in about five months. This will be Rollins’ first match since the Royal Rumble.
I think the main event will be the Becky Lynch match against Charlotte Flair, which was originally announced as a Raw Women’s Title match until it was changed when Ronda Rousey said she didn’t give up the title. If Lynch wins the match then she is added to the Rousey vs. Flair match at WrestleMania, so Lynch is expected to win the title.
It’s also worth noting that this is the first televised match for Lynch and Flair since the Royal Rumble on January 27th. Flair has been working live events every weekend since then while Lynch has been off selling the knee injury.
WWE Championship: Daniel Bryan (c) vs. Kevin Owens

There are nine titles on Raw and Smackdown right now with only four of them being defended at Fastlane. They could add Smackdown’s US Title as well.
I’ll be back tonight for a live WWE Smackdown review and will have another post about the Fastlane card if they add anything to it. We will have a Fastlane preview up on Friday and I expect to write a live review on Sunday as well.
