9. Kalisto Soundly Defeats Alberto Del Rio

The WWE has been seeking to replace Rey Mysterio ever since he departed the company, citing the need for a superstar that their massive Hispanic fanbase can latch on to. They brought back Alberto Del Rio not long after firing him in an attempt to do just that, but he€™s arguably even less over than he was prior to his departure. The best option to replace Rey is Kalisto. The two luchadors are similar in size, moveset and €“ perhaps most important of all €“ appearance, and is his performance at TLC is any indication he€™s quite capable of putting on some breathtaking matches. WWE has been experimenting with him a singles wrestler and he€™s been trading the US title with Del Rio, but Fastlane is the time to drive the nail in the coffin of that feud once and for all. Del Rio is a heatsink that the fans do not respond to while Kalisto has the potential to be a moneymaker for them. Despite the fact that the match is a best 2 out of 3 falls, the right move is to have The Lucha Dragon go over decisively and truly establish in the eyes of the fans that he€™s a wrestler to be taken seriously. No more 50/50 booking between these two. Put Kalisto over strong.
