WWE Fastlane 2021: 10 Things That Must Happen

7. Cinematic Silliness

There's no way WWE will book a straight-up singles match between Randy Orton and Alexa Bliss. That'd be preposterous, and it'd force them to answer uncomfortable questions about intergender violence. That subject is... best avoided, let's be honest here.

Cinematic silliness would cure all ills.

Yes, WWE did lean on cinematic matches a little too much in 2020, but they've got merit if they fit the story. This feud between the possessed Bliss and Orton, which will lead to Bray Wyatt's return in time for 'Mania, is barmy enough to warrant a B-movie-esque format.

Alexa can continue playing the same mind games she has been for months, and Randy can stumble around the place looking like he wants to be rid of this nuisance so he can punt Wyatt in the skull and end things on the grandest stage.

This will be one to avoid for those who don't enjoy illogical fantasy worlds or crummy storyboards that belong on old Nickolodeon classic 'Are You Afraid Of The Dark?'.
