8 Last-Minute WWE Fastlane 2018 Rumours You Need To Know

The smart money after Asuka's Royal Rumble win in January was on a WrestleMania clash between the Empress of Tomorrow and current Raw Women's Champion Alexa Bliss. And yet, this is still to be formally announced.

In lieu of any official word, rumours have began surfacing that the former NXT record-setter will instead set her sights on a match with SmackDown's Charlotte - one that fans have been getting excited about for the best part of two years.

Given corresponding talk of Carmella cashing in Money in the Bank, it's very possible this dream could become a reality with Asuka interrupting her title shot, in turn saving Charlotte for herself at the Showcase of the Immortals.

Alternatively, she could simply come out after the Nature Girl sees off Ruby Riott and announce her intention to jump over to the blue brand. Either way, it's a possibility that we can't really discount until the pay-per-view is in the bag.
