The show kicked off with John Cena. He cuts a promo and talks about how he loves the boos and the cheers. He says he isn’t going to let Rusev tell him that he’s done. He says at fast lane he will be the first to defeat Rusev and capture the U.S title.
Rusev’s music hits and Lana cuts her usual promo degrading the good o’l USA, Rusev says he’s going to crush Cena at Fastlane and proceeded to mock cena with the “you can’t see me” hand gesture. This causes cena to run up the ramp and an all out brawl ensues. Both men get good shots at one another but cena is the one standing tall at the end of it all.

The first match of the night is Dean Ambrose vs Luke Harper. Before the math there’s a segment in which Ambrose mentions he beat a former IC Champ in Axel last week and that he plans on beating another former champ in Harper tonight and that by then BNB will have no choice to sign the contract for an IC title match at Fastlane

The match in itself was a back and forth battle between Ambrose and Harper with Ambrose eventually picking up the win via dirty deeds.

Then there’s a backstage segment between stardust and Golddust joined by their father Dusry Rhodes giving them a pep talk about the importance of family and sticking together

Then new day goes on to defeat the Dust brothers in their match. Golddust was the one who was pinned and after the match concluded it looked as if the brothers were on the same page but then Stardust delivered a cross Rhodes to Golddust.

Another backstage segment happens where Dusty confronts stardust by calling him Cody. Stardust tells his father Cody is no more, that he was tired of living in the shadow of his father and brother that he exploded. He then proceeds to tell Dusty that his farther is dead to him

Up next we are joined by Byron Saxton looking to get an interview with Paige but the Bella’s come out of the locker room with Paige’s ring gear and Nikki says “I don’t think you’ll be seeing Paige tonight”

Paige them comes out of the locker room wearing a towel. She attempts to ask Cameron to barrow gear but Cameron says no because it won’t look good on her so “girl bye” so instead Paige barrows a pink tutu outfit from one of the rose buds.

Paige’s match is up next and her opponent is Summer Rae. Paige picks up the victory via PTO.

The Bella’s then come out and Nikki attempts to cut a promo but is interrupted by Paige. Paige tells Nikki “the difference between her and Nikki is that she doesn’t need an outfit to look good and that at Fastlane she’ll be wearing something even better and that’s the WWE divas title”

Up next Rollins is out to cut a quick promo and about how he’s a valuable asset and could pretty much do whatever he wants. Hrs interrupted by Ziggler who says he’s here to do what he does best “showoff”

During the match the referee ejected J and J Security from the match. The match continues to go back and forth and at one point Ziggler hit the superkick followed up with the zig zag. However j and j are back out to interrupt the 3 count having the match end in a no contest. Rollins and his crew attempt to beat down Ziggler but then Ryback and Rowan come to his aid, leaving them standing tall

Next is Reigns vs Kane. During the match Bryan attempts to throw reigns off his game with the yes chants but to no avail. The match ends via count out after the spear to Kane.

Up next is the HHH segment where he responds to sting. He talks about stings career and how he was an icon in WCW, how he went down with the WCW ship and how at Fastlane we will see WWE and WCW in the same ring.His promo is interrupted by Ric Flair. Ric Flair tells HHH he doesn’t want sting getting the best of him. HHH tells Flair with all do respect when it comes to kicking Stings ass he’s not Rick flair and that if sting doesn’t leave on his own at Fastlane he’ll make him leave.

Next is a tag match between Daren Young and a no name parter against the Ascension. The match never officially got underway and Tius O’Neal comes to the aid of Daren young. Could this mean Prime time players are reunited?

Next is the first ever husband and wife vs husband and wife match as Jimmy and Naomi take on Tyson Kidd and Natalya. Tyson wanted little to no involvement in the match. Naomi picks up the win and Tyson blames their lost on Natalya. Trouble in paradise once again perhaps?

Up next is a Match between MizDow and BNB. Before the match Miz makes a deal with BNB that if he takes MizDow down a few pegs he’ll keep an eye out for Ambrose. During the match Miz has a bell that he uses to call MizDow for assistance. Eventually the distractions prove to be too much and MizDow looses yo BNB via ball hammer.

Following the match Ambrose comes out and attacks BNB and then ties his hands to the ring post forcing him to sign the contract for an IC title match at Fastlane.

Main event time. Bryan vs Big Show. This time Reigns is at ringside. He attempts to get in the head of Bryan by signing autographs for fans, taking selfies, and giving away T-shirts. Bryan however seemed to not be effected, that is until the match ended up outside. Big show went for a spear which Bryan sidestepped and crashes into Reigns.

Just as Bryan was about to capitalize on Big Show to get the win, Reigns charges to the ring hitting Show with a super man punch causing Brayn to loose the match.

This causes an epic brawl between Reigns and Bryan. Even some blood was drawn. It’s eventually broken up by officials. It seems to be over after the two shake hands, but they continue to brawl until backstage officials pull them off each other

That’s how the show went off air. I believe it was a great way to hype up the main event at Fastlane. Overall I give the show a 7 out of 10.

Side notes: bray Wyatt had 3 small promos which seemed to be calling out the Undertaker.
