Check the complete details on these confirmed matches and explore the storylines and rivalries that have led to these showdowns.
Match 1: John Cena & LA Knight vs. The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa & Jimmy Uso)
John Cena, a name synonymous with WWE greatness, finds himself facing a daunting challenge at WWE Fastlane. Originally set to team up with AJ Styles against The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso, Cena’s path took an unexpected turn.
The Bloodline executed a ruthless backstage attack on Styles, leaving Cena in a precarious situation. With a contract already signed, Cena needed a partner to stand against the formidable duo. Enter LA Knight, who made a dramatic save and added his name to the contract, forming an unlikely alliance with Cena.
This matchup is a true test of resilience and teamwork, as Cena and Knight must navigate the treacherous waters of The Bloodline’s dominance. With 16 world championships to his name, Cena brings a wealth of experience, but the question remains: can he and LA Knight overcome the odds and topple one of WWE’s most dominant factions?
Match 2: World Heavyweight Championship – Seth Rollins (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (Last Man Standing Match)
The bitter rivalry between Seth Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura has captivated WWE audiences, and it shows no signs of abating. Nakamura, known as “The King of Strong Style,” has unleashed a renewed killer instinct that has taken him to the brink of championship glory. At Payback, these two warriors clashed in a competitive battle for the world heavyweight title, with Rollins emerging victorious.
However, Nakamura’s mind games and unwavering determination have goaded Rollins into putting the championship on the line once more, this time under the brutal Last Man Standing stipulation. In this type of match, victory is declared only when one competitor is unable to answer the referee’s 10-count. Expect an all-out war as Rollins and Nakamura seek to settle the score definitively and claim the prestigious world heavyweight championship.
Match 3: WWE Women’s Championship – IYO SKY (c) vs. Asuka vs. Charlotte Flair
The WWE Women’s Championship is up for grabs in what promises to be a thrilling triple-threat match. IYO SKY, the reigning champion, faces a formidable challenge from two of WWE’s most accomplished female wrestlers: Asuka and Charlotte Flair. The path to this showdown was far from conventional, as it all began with Flair defeating Bayley on SmackDown, seemingly earning a one-on-one title shot.
However, the landscape shifted dramatically when Asuka intervened, coming to Charlotte’s aid and setting the stage for a triple-threat clash. The dynamics of this match are intriguing, as each competitor brings a unique style and a hunger for championship glory. With the WWE Women’s Championship on the line, expect fierce competition, high-flying action, and dramatic near-falls as IYO SKY, Asuka, and Charlotte Flair vie for supremacy.
WWE Fastlane 2023 promises to be a must-watch event for wrestling fans, with these three confirmed matches already generating significant anticipation.
