Ranking Every 2018 WWE PPV From Worst To Best
9. Fastlane
It's always nice when one of WWE's apparent B-level pay-per-view defies expectations with a breezy night of action, which is exactly what Fastlane did back in March. Not a great event, but a solid one that exceeded its minimal buzz despite a handful of oddball booking decision.
Shinsuke Nakamura was always going to overcome Rusev in the opening bout, but they worked a solid back-and-forth encounter with a hot closing stretch, and the audience were all the way into it. Two solid veteran hands in Randy Orton and Bobby Roode worked their usual bout, though they could've done with trimming its 20-minute runtime. The Usos and New Day were en route to an excellent bout before The Bludgeon Brothers ruined it. Elsewhere, the two women's bouts were Very Okay, but the main event knocked it out of the park.
Best Moment: AJ Styles defends his WWE Championship in a nutty six-pack challenge with Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, and Baron Corbin, who crafted one of the year's best clusterf*cks.
Worst Moment: An overbooked closing stretch featuring interference from Liv Morgan, Sarah Logan, Becky Lynch, and Naomi mars Ruby Riott's first big PPV singles bout versus Charlotte.
