WWE Fastlane 2023 Predictions & Preview: Match Card, Logo, Matches, Location, Date

After a two-year hiatus, WWE will bring back Fastlane, their annual pay-per-view event, on Saturday, October 7, 2023, at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The event will be the first Fastlane to be held on a Saturday and in October, and it will also be WWE's first PPV and livestreaming event held in Indianapolis since Clash of Champions in September 2016. Originally, Fastlane was held on the "Road to WrestleMania," but the name of the event was dropped for 2023 due to the event taking place six months after WrestleMania 39.



This year's Fastlane is sure to be a star-studded event, with matches featuring some of WWE's biggest names. Fans can expect to see title matches and grudge matches.

WWE Fastlane 2023 Confirmed Match Card

Tag Team Match: John Cena & LA Knight vs. The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa & Jimmy Uso)

At WWE Fastlane, John Cena will team up with LA Knight in a battle against The Bloodline’s Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa. On the September 22 episode of SmackDown, the main event featured a contract signing involving John Cena, Solo Sikoa, and Jimmy Uso. Originally, AJ Styles was supposed to team up with Cena, but he was attacked backstage before the contract signing.

After Styles was taken to the hospital, Cena found himself alone in the ring, facing Solo and Jimmy. However, both Solo and Jimmy ended up attacking Cena, closing out the show. They also signed the contract, confirming a tag team match for WWE Fastlane.



On the September 29 episode of SmackDown, Knight returned and helped Cena beat down The Bloodline. Knight then signed the contract to team up with Cena against The Bloodline at WWE Fastlane.

WINNER PREDICTION: John Cena & LA Knight

WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Seth Rollins vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins will defend his title against Shinsuke Nakamura in a Last Man Standing Match. The match was made official on the September 25 episode of WWE Raw.

During the show, Nakamura didn't make a physical entrance but instead appeared on the titantron to accept Rollins' challenge for Fastlane in a Last Man Standing match. This match is expected to be a big deal, featuring two top stars from the Red brand.

It's worth noting that this will be Seth Rollins' first Last Man Standing Match, as he has never participated in this type of match before. On the other hand, this will be Nakamura's second Last Man Standing Match, as he previously faced AJ Styles in a similar stipulation match at the Money In The Bank premium live event in June 2018.

WINNER PREDICTION: Seth Rollins

WWE Women's Championship Match: IYO SKY(c) vs. Asuka vs. Charlotte Flair

IYO SKY will put her WWE Women's Championship on the line in a Triple Threat Match against two of WWE's best and most accomplished Superstars: Charlotte Flair and Asuka.

This match came together during the September 29 episode of WWE SmackDown when Charlotte Flair defeated Bayley in a one-on-one contest. Prior to her match against Bayley, Flair expressed her desire for a title shot against IYO at WWE Fastlane. Following the match, Flair found herself surrounded by Bayley, SKY, and Dakota Kai. Asuka intervened to save Flair.

Asuka, however, had her own statement to make, speaking in Japanese. Bayley translated her message, revealing that Asuka wanted a Triple Threat Match at the event. Surprisingly, this was not what Asuka had actually said, much to The Genius of The Sky's surprise.

WINNER PREDICTION: IYO SKY

Six-Man Tag Team Match: The LWO vs. Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits

During the upcoming event, The LWO aims to settle the score as they face off against Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits. On the September 29th episode of WWE SmackDown, Mysterio successfully defended his United States Title against Escobar. After the match, Dawkins and Ford experienced another brutal post-match assault, this time with Lashley joining in.

As a consequence of this attack, Rey Mysterio, representing The LWO, announced their intention to challenge Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits to a Six-Man Tag Team Match at WWE Fastlane.

WINNER PREDICTION: Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits
