8 Last-Minute WWE Fastlane 2018 Rumours You Need To Know
8. Jinder Mahal Interrupts The US Title Match
Fans of Jinder Mahal (all four of them) will have noticed that their boy is currently not scheduled to compete at Fastlane, having been left out of the US Championship clash between former foes Bobby Roode and Randy Orton.
That, as we have come to learn, doesn't necessarily preclude him from being involved, however, and some are predicting that the Modern Day Maharaja will interfere in the bout in a bid to help bolster his chances of a match at WrestleMania.
There's logic here. Both Orton and Roode are, for the time being, faces; a match dynamic for which it is naturally difficult to book a satisfactory finish. Ending it with a DQ therefore seems like the ideal get out.
It would also nicely mirror what's happening with the Intercontinental Championship over on Raw. Rather than one-on-one feuds, the midcard titles, it seems, are going to be used as ways to shoehorn as many wrestlers as possible onto the card on April 8.
