At time of writing, Fastlane only has five matches to shout about in total. Is that enough? Some would argue that it is, especially if there's a Kickoff bonus for the live crowd and possibly some sort of Miz TV segment to pad things out. This guy would much prefer another match ahead of that Raw-ish fare though.

WWE has several options here.

They could bring the scheduled Nia Jax vs. Raquel Rodriguez bruiser forwards from Monday's Raw and stick it here on the midcard. Or, if Rhea Ripley needs to prove a point to her Judgment Day pals, the company might prefer to have her slap the crap out of Nia in a Women's World Title defence instead.

Over on the tag side, it wouldn't suck to have DIY duo Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano enjoy their first match back as a team against Imperium. Actually yes, yes that sounds like a party. Tag team wrestling is the best kind of wrestling.
