Fastlane’s Unexpected Return
WWE Fastlane, scheduled for this Saturday, has fans buzzing with anticipation, especially after the events that transpired on this week’s SmackDown. An injury angle left Santos Escobar and Rey Mysterio in need of a third partner for their six-man tag team match against Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits. Mysterio hinted at making a crucial phone call, leaving fans speculating about the potential third member.
According to PW Insider, the recent SmackDown angle, where Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza were attacked, is setting the stage for a significant return at Fastlane. The LWO is set to face off against the Street Profits and Bobby Lashley. Sources within WWE suggest that this storyline was crafted to pave the way for the return of Carlito. The former Intercontinental Champion, who signed a new contract with WWE during the summer, has been biding his time, waiting for the perfect moment to re-enter the spotlight. Carlito’s last appearance was in May at WWE Backlash in Puerto Rico.
With such a significant return on the horizon, WWE Fastlane promises to be an eventful night, adding another layer of excitement to the already stacked card.
