WWE Fastlane 2023 Stats, Most Wins, Defeats, Crowd Capacity And More

WWE Fastlane is a wrestling event hosted by WWE, a company based in Connecticut. It’s shown live on pay-per-view (PPV) and has been accessible through the WWE Network since 2015 and Peacock since 2021.

Now, let’s delve into the six-year history of WWE Fastlane. WWE Fastlane is a significant live event by WWE, and it got its name because it plays a crucial role on the path to WrestleMania. The first Fastlane was held in February 2015 as part of the Road to WrestleMania. In 2017, it became exclusive to the Raw brand and moved to March. In 2018, it switched to the Smackdown brand, and in 2019, it became a dual-brand event. It happened annually until 2019, but it was canceled in 2020 and then brought back in its usual slot the following year. However, it was discontinued once more after 2021 and has now returned in 2023, but with a new schedule.
