4. Charlotte’s PPV Streak Continues Until WrestleMania
This is where I may appear a bit hypocritical. If you follow me on Twitter, you will know that I’ve made some comments about how I didn’t like how the RAW Women’s Championship was treated as a “hot potato.”
I didn’t care about the quality of the matches, I felt the constant switching of the title made it less credible. However, I feel like Charlotte’s pay-per-view streak should have not ended here and she should’ve regained the title at Fastlane. Here is my thought process:
They were building Charlotte’s pay-per-view streak as a HUGE deal, she was undefeated at every PPV ever since she debuted, putting on some great matches, whether you like her or hate her you have to admit to that. She is one of the best women wrestlers on RAW and arguably the best women wrestler on the main roster.
At Fastlane, she should’ve continued her dominance, winning the title, and then lost the title and the streak at the “Showcase of Immortals.” This would have been the perfect story, as well as make Bayley’s win at WrestleMania that much sweeter.
I say Bayley as Sasha Banks has won the title multiple times already, and I don’t believe Nia Jax is ready just yet.
Use the buttons below for number 5 on our list of booking decisions that would have made Fastlane better.
I most definitely agree that Braun Strowman should not have been pinned. If Undertaker had caused a distraction or even gotten Roman Reigns disqualified, not only would Strowman have remained undefeated but Taker would have one-upped Roman for eliminating him at the Rumble. It would have added fuel to their feud and upcoming Wrestlemania match. All bases would have been covered.
They added the filler matches because then people would complain about the show ending early. Simple answer.
And your #3 isn’t a Fastlane booking decision, that’s a RAW booking decision. Makes no sense
So you want Owens to win the US Title, but also retain the Universal? Three of your 5 arguments you clearly are grabbing at straws
