McIntyre appeared to be having a thinly-veiled dig at AEW Revolution's less-than-stellar conclusion on Raw when he said, "If you make a guarantee and don’t deliver, fans get upset and sparks fly". At Fastlane, he revealed another possibility when he shoved Sheamus (who had guaranteed victory) through some of the LED screens.

WWE's commentators yelled, ""Sparks fly as Sheamus is sent through those screens" during replays of the incident. Hmm. Maybe Drew was taking the p*ss out of All Elite previously. Or, perhaps he'd already planned this spot and wanted to foreshadow it.

Interesting.
