Big Match Added To WWE Fastlane 2021

Shane McMahon Continued To Plant Seeds For A Potential Showdown with Braun Strowman. Shane McMahon didn't seem to care about provoking Braun Strowman on Raw, suggesting the two would clash at WWE Fastlane.## For the second straight week, Strowman demanded a WWE Title match on Raw. This time, he wanted to be inserted into the picture with new champion The Miz and challenger Bobby Lashley. Shane interrupted his promo to inform him that's not how things work.## Instead of setting Braun Strowman in the title picture, McMahon scheduled a stipulation match against Bobby Lashley which he lost, thus taking himself away from the title picture. Another week, another episode of Raw, Shane McMahon appeared with Adam Pearce and announced that Braun Strowman will tag with Adam Pearce against The Hurt Business for the Raw tag-Team Titles.## During the match, Braun Strowman performed a Running Powerslam and tagged Adam Pearce on McMahon's demand, but Adam Pearce instead got covered for the pin. This promoted a heat for Braun Strowman, hinting that they could unveil a big one.## The Match was officially announced on the March 15 episode of Monday Night Raw.## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Updates...

Bobby Lashley Vs. Drew McIntyre For The WWE Championship Set To Happen At WrestleMania

This is happening, The much-awaited match between Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre is scheduled to take place at this year's WrestleMania.## Earlier we also predicted Drew McIntyre Vs. Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship match despite the facts are against it. Currently, they both are performing on Monday Night Raw. WWE Champion Bobby Lashley will go head-to-head with the fellow force of nature and former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre.## At WWE Elimination Chamber, McIntyre survived five elite Raw Superstars and the career-altering structure to continue his dominant reign as WWE Champion. His celebration was cut short, however, when Lashley suddenly unleashed a fierce post-match beatdown and paved the way for The Miz to cash-in the Money in the Bank contract and steal the gold away. Eight days later, The All Mighty conquered the A-Lister in dominant fashion and captured the WWE Title for himself to signal the start of The All Mighty Era.## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Updates...

List Of All WWE United States Champions

Here is the full list of all WWE United States Champions.## The WWE United States Championship was originally created in 1975 as the NWA United States Heavyweight Championship. It was one of several regional championships promoted by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). In 1985, the NWA granted exclusive rights to the championship to Jim Crockett Promotions, which was later acquired by Ted Turner and renamed World Championship Wrestling (WCW).## In 2001, WWE purchased WCW and its assets, including the United States Championship. WWE renamed the title the WCW United States Championship and defended it on the WCW brand until November 2001, when it unified the WCW United States Championship and WWF Intercontinental Championship into a single title called the Undisputed WWF Championship.## In July 2003, WWE reactivated the United States Championship as the WWE United States Championship. It has since become one of WWE's most prestigious secondary championships. The championship has been defended by some of the biggest names in WWE history, including Ric Flair, Lex Luger, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Eddie Guerrero, Booker T, John Cena, and Randy Orton.## The United States Championship is currently defended on the SmackDown brand. Logan Paul is the current champion, having defeated Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel on November 4, 2023. ## WWE United States Champions No. Champion Date Event Reign 1 Harley Race January 1, 1975 House show 1 2 Johnny Valentine July 3, 1975 House show 1 — Vacated October 4, 1975 — — 3 Terry Funk November 9, 1975 House show 1 4 Paul Jones November 27, 1975 House show 1 5 Blackjack Mulligan March 13, 1976 House show 1 6 Paul Jones October 16, 1976 House show 2 — Blackjack Mulligan November 28, 1976 House show 2 — Paul Jones December 9, 1976 House show 3 7 Blackjack Mulligan December 15, 1976 House show 2(3) 8 Bobo Brazil July 7, 1977 House show 1 9 Ric Flair July 29, 1977 House show 1 10 Ricky Steamboat October 21, 1977 House show 1 11 Blackjack Mulligan January 1, 1978 House show 3(4) 12 Mr. Wrestling March 19, 1978 House show 1 13 Ric Flair April 9, 1978 House show 2 14 Ricky Steamboat December 17, 1978 House show 2 15 Ric Flair April 1, 1979 House show 3 — Vacated August 12, 1979 — — 16 Jimmy Snuka September 1, 1979 House show 1 17 Ric Flair April 19, 1980 House show 4 † Greg Valentine July 26, 1980 House show 1 † Ric Flair November 24, 1980 House show 5 18 Roddy Piper January 27, 1981 House show 1 19 Wahoo McDaniel August 8, 1981 House show 1 — Vacated September 8, 1981 — — 20 Sgt.

4 Predicted Matches For WWE Fastlane 2021

Here are the 4 predicted matches that could take place at WWE Fastlane 2021.## Drew McIntyre Vs. Sheamus - In A Singles Match## It looks...the immense-growing feud between Drew McIntyre and Sheamus is likely to end at WWE Fastlane. As noted, On Monday Night Raw, Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus’ No Disqualification Match ended in a No-Contest.## After his former friend turned bitter enemy Sheamus attacked him backstage, Drew McIntyre demanded an impromptu No Disqualification Match against The Celtic Warrior.## During the match, Both McIntyre and Sheamus picked up the unforgiving steel ring steps, charged forward and collided with each other. In the process, the impact took both competitors completely out of the action and forced the official to call for the bell.## Predicted Winner: Drew McIntyre## Triple Threat Match For The United States Title : Riddle Vs. John Morrison Vs. Keith Lee## What do you think about this one, would be a great one?## At WWE Elimination Chamber, Riddle defeated Bobby Lashley & John Morrison to own the United States Title who is now in his first reign. As noted, Keith Lee was scheduled to be involved in the title match instead of John Morrison at Elimination Chamber. But he could not participate due to the injuries as previously reported by WWE.## Having Lee involved would be great, but we still don't know the severity of his injury. If Keith Lee gets to appear on Monday Night Raw, then definitely, he is gonna dig his eyes on US Title.## WWE Raw WomWomen's Championship Match: Asuka(c) Vs. Reckoning## For the time being, we can't gues up about the challenger for Raw Women's Championship which was previously not defended at Elimination Chamber, but this time it may be up to grab at the event.## There has been high anticipation on booking Charlotte Vs. Asuka somewhere along the line. According to our prediction, WWE might not be listing this match at Fastlane, so to have a big plan, apparently indicating a great one at WrestleMania.## For Fastlane, we would like to pick up Reckoning who also returned to WWE Raw being part of RETRITBUTION.## Seth Rollins Vs. Cesaro - Singles Match## A WrestleMania worth match?## Although, Seth Rollins Vs. Cesaro is rumored to happen at WrestleMania, but we will still like to have this match to be added at WWE Fastlane.## Seth Rollins returned to SmackDown with a brutal assault on Cesaro. Returning to SmackDown for the first time since Survivor Series, Seth Rollins claimed that having a baby had changed him. Before long, he once again declared himself the leader of the locker room in true SmackDown Savior fashion, causing the gathered Superstars to take their leave.## Cesaro fastened around longer than most and made Rollins consider that he had heard his message, but when The Swiss Superman turned his back on him as well, Rollins caught and unleashed an unhinged beatdown on the departing competitor.## This is definitely not gonna be the ultimate of their rivalry, Cesaro will fully pay the attention to settle the score with Seth Rollins.## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Updates...
