WWE's last stop on the frenetic road to Wrestlemania is at the company's "Fastlane" pay-per-view on Sunday night. This year, the show is intriguing as the last major stop before the "showcase of the immortals," it's also the last place where a number of important players in WWE could make their returns before the major event. The Undertaker, Randy Orton, Sheamus and Rey Mysterio are all major WWE performers who have yet to be slotted for a role at Wrestlemania. All four are key components of the company's product, and all four have been rumored to return for some time. In the case of three of those four performers (sans Mysterio), their roles could be the most defining parts of Wrestlemania itself. In contemplating returns at Fast Lane, we're also likely putting together the pieces to Wrestlemania as a show that will create the vaunted "Wrestlemania moments" that we have come to never forget.From Seth Rollins and Randy Orton possibly stealing the show, Sheamus earning more heat in one match as a heel than pops he's earned in years as a babyface or The Undertaker potentially being buried by Bray Wyatt, the hype for these moments is likely to begin on this coming Sunday.
