10 Last-Minute WWE Fastlane Rumors You Need To Know
2. Braun Strowman Gets A Giant Victory
Yes, WWE is becoming more accepting of smaller wrestlers, but the fact that Braun Strowman has a job proves that things haven't changed that much - after all, the former powerlifter was signed to a contract before even wrestling a match, and he was put on TV with only a handful of bouts under his belt. He's looked lost in the ring, but if The Great Khali taught us anything, Strowman's tremendous size and strength guarantee a long career. Strowman is rumored to be winning the battle royal at WrestleMania, and so it's time he starts picking up huge wins. He's teaming with Luke Harper and Erick Rowan to take on Ryback, Kane, and The Big Show at Fastlane, and that's where his journey to the main event will begin. On Raw, a match between Strowman and Show ended in a disqualification when the rest of the Wyatts got involved. At Fastlane, Strowman will manage to lock Show in his head and arm choke and put the giant out, scoring the win he was denied on Monday - the most important victory of his young career.
