 What's good Josh your boy Ross back again with another video, so I just finished watching fast lane, and I'm not gonna lie to you I enjoy myself for the most part. We're gonna go through Match by match. There were some matches. I didn't really care about obviously each pay-per-view There are some matches that I don't really care too much about so I kind of skim through and then there was under matches that I Actually watched all the way through and thoroughly enjoy it So we're gonna go by them one by one and we're gonna talk about it have a nice little discussion But overall, I will say I definitely did enjoy this pay-per-view more than I expected to so so I have my notes right here I took a decent amount of notes. So let's kind of go through them and I'm gonna give my thoughts on the pings on each match in each second So the first matchup was the women's tag team championship match between Nia Jax, Shayna Baszler versus Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair Automatically knew this match was gonna end in a funny fashion obviously because Sasha and Bianca are facing each other at WrestleMania for us smackdowns women's Championship so you kind of knew there was gonna be some type of Some type of mishap between them two because obviously they're facing each other at WrestleMania this year I Don't know who Reginald is. I know I've seen him in a couple clips on wrong I believe on smackdown. I believe a couple clips. I'm not sure wrong or smackdown. I'm not sure I don't know who Reginald is. I guess he's aligned with Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler But I kind of didn't understand that him interfering. So I was just like I don't even know who the person is Coming down below. Let me know. Who is he supposed to be to Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler? I Will say I haven't made a mental note. I remember when Shayna Baszler was a real threat in the women's division in my opinion I felt like she was like someone that people didn't want to mess with hell certain men didn't want to mess with Shayna Baszler And I feel like since they've paired up with Nia Jax cool She has some type of gold around her ways But I feel like she should be going for somebody's title and like breaking limbs because that's how she wasn't in XC So I do feel like they've dropped dropped a ball on her character ever since she was feuding with Who was that she was feuding with a few years ago at WrestleMania. I want to say it was Well, who was it? Who was it? It's on the tip of my tongue. It's on the tip of my tongue Becky Lynch, I don't know why I couldn't think of that I'm serious. I have no idea why I couldn't think of that But she was feeding with Becky Lynch at the time and I still think Becky Lynch probably should have lost to give the strap to Shayna Baszler Maybe she would be in a better position now, but obviously they didn't go that route So she's kind of just in this mid-card tier, but I do believe she's definitely a main event singles competitor Bella and Sasha start arguing which cost them to lose them match Obviously, you knew this was gonna happen at some point at some form of fashion They were gonna get into it which was gonna cost Cost them obviously the tag team championships and at the end of the match, of course Sasha with her attitude ends up slapping Bianca in the face I honestly thought Bianca was gonna start teeing off. I was hoping she would like let's get this started, you know I'm saying But we can clearly see that I believe Sasha is probably gonna be more of the heel in this situation She plays better as a heel anyway and Bianca is gonna be more of a face going into WrestleMania So I'm interested to see how they match play out. I'm really interested to see how they match plays out I honestly think Bianca Bella deserves to strap for a little bit So hopefully she can have a WrestleMania moment, but we'll see how things play out over the upcoming weeks I'm sure their feud will intensify So that match was it was a cool little opener. Nothing too crazy The promo package between Apollo cruise and Big E was very impressive I know you guys have been telling me to check out Apollo cruise's heel run. I actually enjoy it I actually like it to give some character to Apollo cruise. The only thing I knew Apollo cruise For like before his little heel turn was he's very athletic. He smiles a lot and he doesn't win big matches That's all I know knew of Apollo cruise, you know, he was he was a promising star in NXT But I do believe they took him out of NXT a little bit too quick They probably should have kept them down there a little bit longer to develop some type of maybe a better personality on Inring wise, but I'm glad he does have this heel run And I'm glad he's just going at the intercontinental championship gives it some type of Importance and I like the fact that Big E is Aggressive with it in his single runs like no, you're not about to just come out here Try to end my career take the title after I'm beating you multiple times. You know what? All right, this is what you want Fine cool One thing I would say I wish they would change up Big E's attire to matches like aggression in the ring Because I know he has like the new day theme going on, but he has this solo run So I think they need to start really Separating himself in the sense of like I'm on this solo path right now So I would love for them to have a change of attire at least in color wise So it makes him more of a serious champion in my eyes when I see him come out there With different like like different type of fits other than the colorful new day type outfits That's just my personal opinion, but comment down below. Let me know if y'all agree with me on that I Love how Big E was talking a lot of trash at the beginning of the match He's like no, this is what you wanted Apollo. No, you you ask for this like this is what you wanted So I'm gonna whoop your ass because this is what you wanted. You wanted this match. All right, cool You tried to take me out. All right, cool bet. I love that man I like Big E's aggressiveness Now the ending of this match was kind of weird for me personally. I didn't really like the whole Like you couldn't really tell who got pinned who didn't get pinned It's kind of like a cheap way to lead up into a potential rematch. I don't like that They could have ended it They actually could have ended it off where Big E maybe gets a roll up He wins and then Apollo cruise attacks him from behind because now Apollo cruise can say bro I pinned you or you know, it wasn't really a no definitive winner. I don't know I don't know. I just thought that was kind of weird, but Apollo cruise end up tacking them from behind Hidden them with a multiple like I guess you can say some Olympic slams multiple ones Basically just laying out biggie and honestly, I mean it's looking like they may have a rematch So I'm not sure comment down below. Let me know if you guys would be interested in Apollo versus Biggie once again I don't know if I would be but who knows that probably has a stipulation to the match Um Next thing up was Seth versus Shinsuke I like the fact that they were showing the promo like a little a little footage from Smackdown where basically Shinsuke Started beating up on Seth Rollins and when they cut back to the ring, Seth is like, why are you showing that package? Why are you showing that video? Y'all didn't have to show that. Why are you showing it? I like that. I thought that was nice little funny He'll type commentary like why are you showing the footage, bro? No one needs to see that we're talking about right now about the whoopies ass now You don't have to show them that you don't have to show that so I thought that was pretty funny. Um, let's see. I will say this Same thing with Shayna Shinsuke is He was ah man He was on top of the world when he won the Royal Rumble coming out of NXT. You thought this was going to be the guy and He never beat AJ which I thought was a mistake I think he should have beaten AJ obviously that match they had should have been one of the best matches of all time at WrestleMania It was kind of lackluster But either then I think if they would have gave him a shot It would have gave him some type of momentum that he could possibly hold on to but ever since then He's just kind of been in this mid-card purgatory. You know, I think he deserves a lot better, too That's just my personal opinion. But hey, man, I just remember a time Shinsuke was on top of the world I will say the match was okay. It wasn't anything too crazy Seth ends up winning with the curbs top obviously it was okay for what it was, you know saying I think I'm I would be more interested in seeing Seth versus Cesaro more Because I think they would have probably a better match me personally I think they would so I can't wait for Cesaro to come back they can continue their few I think I'll be more interested in that match because I think that match will be nice And I do think so sorrow needs that win over somebody like a Seth Rollins someone that's established So I think him beating Seth at some point Maybe at WrestleMania that would be a nice little rub for Cesaro because we all know Cesaro deserves some type of some type of Appreciation in the WWE because the dude is talented as hell. So all right, the promo between Seamus and Drew was really great I didn't even know they were like real life friends like that like they showed the past 20 years and they just Showed their upbringing and how close they were in the indie scenes and like I didn't know that and I thought that was a nice Touch to this feud you would think this few would last a little bit longer because of that promo package But no, bro This is only like a one-time feud right now because I mean I knew obviously Drew was gonna win because you know This is Drew versus Bobby's more of the marquee match So I knew Drew was gonna win But I wish this was like a few that was going on You know prior to Drew losing the title, you know, and I think this would have been a nice few to have Honestly because that promo Patrick's was Fantastic man, and this match was hard hitting. I will say this right now. There's no holds bar at match was very intense Physical there was welts all over both competitors. I like this match. I'm this is actually one of the few matches I think this was like the first match I actually watched all the way through because it was in it was intense. I liked the story build up They had and it was just brutal like I like it The rolling sent on in the virtual crowd area. It's a nice little spot I'll be forgetting how big that little the Thunderdome is so seeing them up high in like the Virtual crowd area. I don't even realize how high it is until they zoom out. I was like, yo, they're all the way up there when Drew through shameless through the LED boards in the virtual crowd I thought that was a nice little spot. I thought visually that looked like damn, bro This man just threw him through some virtual people. He just threw him like common trash. I thought that was a pretty cool spot the suplex to the floor by Drew on shameless I want to say Shameless is pushing not shameless drew is pushing Shameless on this like this little construction cart this equipment cart and he's pushing them on it all the way to the ring Side area he grabs them in the suplex position and as Shameless is laying on this crate He flips them over in in does a suplex to him all the way to the floor below Bro, that impact was nasty not gonna lie to you It was it looked vicious on top of the fact that they got all these welts and bruises all over their body Like you can tell they were in a lot of pain in this match Um Shameless hitting the white noise from the top of the bear gate during through the announce table nice little spot Very nice spot looked look pretty cool The fact that he was able to balance himself on that barricade with somebody else was pretty impressive as well but ultimately Drew ends up getting the win With a nice claymore kick. I want to say Shameless brought in like one of the side panels Yeah, he brought in one of the side panels on the table and he was going to I believe hit maybe like a white noise on the side panel on to drew but Drew was able to counter it hit him with like a DDT and then hit him with the claymore kick And that was it one two three and the match was over as I expected Drew was gonna win because obviously he has to face Population at WrestleMania. I just wish this feud had a little bit more time to build but nevertheless it was entertaining now this segment with Randy or then Alexa bliss I knew Just like little snippets like I would watch a little snippets of Alexa bliss just messing with Randy. I Didn't know this was an actual match until before the pay-per-view because I'm like How does this happen? We live in this this oh Like this cancel cultural world how the hell does Randy or have a match with Alexa bliss? Like he's trying to actually physically hurt her. I know he's hit her with RKO, but come on, bro I'm just like believably wise. Maybe if this was WWE back in a day Sure, this actually would have happened and Randy wouldn't probably would have hit a mean as RKO on her But this is not that time period. So I'm knew something was up Cheese on her Harley Quinn Joker well, no, she basically like a rep representation of Harley Quinn But like a demonic Harley Quinn of sorts, you know I'm saying so it is this whole match was just I Was laughing cuz I was like, bro, I don't know what the hell I'm watching right now So Randy Orton's doing his traditional pose, right? All of a sudden he start coughing up fake blood and I'm just in there like What and he got mad he got mad about it. So I'm like, okay. He's coughing up fake blood This this is a great way to start to start to match. So Alexa bliss comes out there She got the little scary contact eyes in my cool. I'm still figuring out how this is How this matches even a thing. All right, whatever. So Randy's chasing her around the ring, bro. He's trying. He's basically stalking this young woman and They're on the opposite side of the ring on on the outside of the ring and Alexa bliss like uses her magical powers to look up Then look down and then as Randy's about to proceed some fucking lights like a lights That's connected to a railing just completely fall down in front of Randy Damn, they're almost killing him in the process and she's like oops. Dang it. I almost had them like Bro, what what the hell? Oh, I'm not to mention have to be getting in a match as Randy's about to charge to attack All of a sudden some fire just comes out of nowhere Surrounds Alexa bliss and a referee just high-tailed it. He just gets out the fucking way He I don't see the referee until the end of the match, bro I literally thought the left referee said fuck this. I quit my job So I didn't know where the ref was so like there's a lot of weird mystical stuff happening at this point Then she starts shooting fireballs On her hand and I'm like man if I was a kid back in a day And we had this type of segment back then I would have been like, oh my god, bro Alexa bliss is a witch and I would have believed that, you know, I'm saying I'll remember back in the day Seeing the undertaker rise up or seeing Kane, you know conjure up this fire you thought these motherfuckers were mystical beings and This is kind of what it is. But we're in 2021 so it's kind of you know, you can sift through the BS But it's it's funny. It's kind of entertaining But it's one of those things where if someone came in your crib They see you watching this thing like what the fuck bro like look man Don't judge me dog So he shoots she shoots fireballs out of a hand and Randy Randy dodges them shout out to you Randy You're dodging dodging her fire attacks, man. That's awesome, bro so at this point There's a hand that comes from under the ring, right? And you can tell it's the fiend's hand but it's like burnt and disfigured and then all of a sudden he comes up out of the ring Under the ring there's smoke everywhere. There's fire rising and Randy orders just sitting there shook Like he's seen a ghost cuz he has and you see the fiend in his new burnt Like burnt victim Costume like he's basically burnt. He's charred from the face down Everything's charged his clothes his face is disfigured. He got one like white glossed over eye Like everything's just disfigured on him and burnt to a crisp and then he he hits him with the sister Abigail and The referees at the corner of the of the ring and Alexa Bliss It was a weird pin not gonna lie to you. She kind of straddles him like I was like, well, what's happening here? This is a family. This is a family wrestling channel. I thought it's PG. The hell's going on She straddles him for the pin. Yes Since straddle him for the pin in the referees in the corner just one two three. All right, bro I'm getting the fuck up out of here. You got motherfuckers popping up the From under the ring, they're burnt to a crisp and they were just sitting there posing in their demonic Glory, I don't I don't know It was weird, but it's cool to see the fiend. Obviously. It's gonna be the fiend versus Randy Orton at WrestleMania I'm not sure if that's gonna be his costume, but I don't know. So come on I below if y'all enjoyed that segment because I was just like, huh, I don't I Don't know what I'm watching here, but it's kind of entertaining. It's funny to me, honestly All right, man. So The match of the night Obviously, this is gonna be an imaginary night. If you thought any different I don't know what you I don't know what you thought was gonna happen here This was going to be the match of the night Daniel Ryan. I said Ryan. I don't know what's wrong with me Daniel Bryan versus Roman Reigns with edge as the special guest ring side enforcer For the WWE universal championship once again promo package was great. I love the shots of Showing Daniel Bryan winning at WrestleMania 30, which is obviously for me personally I don't I don't want to say obviously because I'm sure some of y'all don't know That's one of my favorite WrestleMania's of all time. Not gonna lie to you WrestleMania 30 was A WrestleMania I will never ever forget Um, so they showed clips of that and he's like, yo, I need to main event that you you don't understand how Main eventing WrestleMania changes your life And this may be one of my last times being able to go to WrestleMania very impactful promo, right? The universal championship has never looked this good in my opinion. I'm sorry Even when Brock held it, it didn't look this good. Even when Seth was trying to get it. It didn't look this good Like it has not looked as good as it has now Only because Roman has the championship now and his character change has made this championship In my opinion damn near the championship. We all know the wwe championship should be the tier the top tier championship But this is the case where Roman Reigns has made this this blue belt Seen more important than the wwe championship and I love it. You got Daniel Bryan Fighting for it. I don't think no actually Daniel Bryan has never won the universal championship And the same way with edge edge is never won the universal championship. So you have two future Hall of Famers going for The universal championship they've never held it And Roman Reigns is carrying that that championship as if it is the best thing known to men and I love it So universal championship actually looking like something that's very important and I've been loving that all right Daniel Bryan showing off his submission skills at the beginning of this match Daniel Bryan's really On this He's kind of like trolling Roman like I'm gonna get your legs Oh, almost got you there. Like he's literally just messing with him. He's smiling. He's just like bro I do this. I am a wrestler. I know how to Manipulate joints. I know how to snap your stuff up, bro Don't play with me. I love that. I love like Daniel Bryan is literally playing mind games with Roman Then of course Roman would finally get his hands on Daniel Bryan And when I say he's landing some vicious kicks vicious blows vicious like like punches Vicious like elbows like he everything that Roman hits Is with some type of force behind it with some type of evil intent like I'm trying to put this man in a hospital Because he's pissing me off. I love that It's his moveset is It's just dramatically gotten better. Roman ends up using a boston crab I believe there was at the top rope and I think Daniel Bryan was trying to potentially Flip him off the top rope, but he didn't have enough leverage ultimately Roman Reigns had his own submission move had him in a boston crab, you know, they're selling it You know the announcer is selling it like maybe Daniel Bryan will tap But we know Daniel Bryan is not about to tap to that And I love the fact that they're still building Daniel Bryan as this ultimate underdog even though we know From a technical standpoint Daniel Bryan is the better wrestler than Roman Reigns But he's still the underdog in this situation because Roman Reigns is such a powerful Being you know I'm saying all it takes is a couple grounding pounds Which we did see in this match when Roman gets pissed off. He started grounding and pounding it looks brutal And I honestly think that's how he ended up getting busted open just a little bit Daniel Bryan Didn't know getting busted open around the lip area So it could have been one of them blows or wouldn't have been surprised if it was Roman Vicious knees in the corner. I mean, he's hitting like some UFC Brock Lesnar knees to the abdomen looked very vicious, bro And I love the fact that when Daniel Bryan was applying a yes lock You can see the pain in Roman's face He's writhing yelling in pain because he's trying to get out of it And he was putting them in that lock Multiple times in this match, bro. I love just the story building like this wasn't a high Fast impact match it built up. It was a had a slow build up But it's the fact that every time he got into that submission hold You wasn't sure if he was gonna tap and Roman was selling it, but at the same time it still looked brutal um Now here's the funny part. I started dying laughing so I want to say Roman is uh Basically getting up or whatnot and Daniel Bryan's in the far corner He runs at Roman Roman ducks out the way like moves out the way because the ref is right behind Roman And Roman moves out the way ref get blasted With the running knee and the way the ref so it was so funny me. He just oh He rolls out the ring and just flops on the ground Never to be seen again. That referee died. It was crazy. RIP ref man He sold that running knee. So we knew obviously edge is gonna get involved, right? So edge is getting involved um Roman Reigns hit the nice little spear looks beautiful He goes for the for the pinfall one two Doesn't get the three as edge is counting and you know Roman is feeling some time away He's like yo bro. Like, you know I'm saying, you know, he felt like he you know, that should have been a three count he's like bro man like What you doing in my ring? Basically like bro. I'm in force. Like you do your job. I'm gonna do mine You like, you know, basically Roman's just talking to his trash. Like hey, man I'm gonna handle up on him and then I'm gonna handle up on you. I'm loving it, bro Just loving Roman just in this character of his is just great. I'm not gonna lie to you So at this point, of course Jay motherfucking Uso. Oh my god, dog Jay Uso If it is become a meme at this point in my eyes of how many times does niggat jay gonna come out there? Just to get his ass whooped and interfering the match It annoyed me only because I know what's about to happen here. You know what I'm saying? I know this is of course this message is gonna end in screwy fashion But it was just the fact that jay came out there. He ends up super kicking Edge then he ends up Super kicking Daniel Bryan gets us steel chair or whatnot And I think he throws edge into the the steel post and he's about to hit Daniel Bryan with the chair Daniel Bryan ducks it ends up I want to say ends up kicking him or ends up hitting them with the Hitting them with the running knee. I'm not sure if I thought I think he does Correct me if I'm wrong then he ends up picking up the chair start beating the holy hell out of jay Uso I mean beating his ass So now he's like, all right cool. I have this chair the referees down Romans down So he goes to hit Roman Reigns and of course he misses ends up hitting hitting edge then uh, I want to say Does Daniel Bryan get hit with a Superman punch? I'm not sure I think he does Not quite sure because at this point I stopped taking notes because it was getting entertaining as hell I was I was like, oh man, what's about to happen? I was I stopped taking notes at this point. I want to say Uh, I only took like a few notable notes after this at this point so I want to say Romans setting up for the spear setting up for the spear like yo talking this trash in the corner And it gets countered into once again the yes lock And when I say this was one of the most intense yes locks I've seen in a very long time. I wish there was a live crowd for this Paul Heyman's over there pleading with Roman telling him to think about his family Roman is fading and I'm what I think this is the first time ever in Roman's career Y'all can correct me if I'm wrong Roman taps He's tapping. He's lightly tapping, but he's tapping Daniel Bryan made Roman Reigns tap And I I like to zoom in the camera work was perfect because edge is selling being hit by the chair But you can't see edge no more all you see is they locked in on roman's face and Daniel Bryan just has the submission hold in and Romans he's he's trying to fight out of it, but there's literally nothing he can do bro He ends up his eyes end up starting to glaze over and then he starts tapping lightly And essentially Daniel Bryan won Daniel Bryan is one of the first people I think ever in Roman Reigns career To make Roman Reigns tap out And I thought that was dope I marked out a little bit, but I knew it wasn't going to end correctly It wasn't going to end as Daniel Bryan winning Ultimately edge comes out of nowhere hits Daniel Bryan with a steel chair Then hits Roman Reigns with a steel chair and hits Daniel Bryan with it again edge had snapped I hadn't seen that type of that version of edge in a minute The rated R superstar came out and he just snapped he walked to the back another referee comes out there Roman Reigns crawls his way to Daniel Bryan for the pin one two three And Roman Reigns retains his championship at Fastlane, which I figured was going to happen But nonetheless, this was entertaining as hell. This match is entertaining. It was the story of Daniel Bryan Living up to what he's saying said on smackdown I'm going to tap you out and ultimately he did tap him out But there was no ref to call it. So he didn't win the match But this match was enjoyable and I think what they did right For me personally they made Daniel Bryan Easily one of Roman's Reigns toughest opponents since his heel turn Roman Reigns literally had to crawl his self Over to Daniel Bryan to get the pin Roman Reigns actually tapped No one has ever even come close to making Roman Reigns tap in his career Let alone this happening This built up Daniel Bryan as this he's still the underdog But someone that's like yo Daniel Bryan can actually beat Roman Reigns and it's believable If there's anybody that's believable to beat Roman Reigns, it's Daniel Bryan at this point They made Daniel Bryan look amazing even in the feet And I figured something screwy was going to happen To potentially get Daniel Bryan in the main event scene because Daniel Bryan has a case now he can say yo I made Roman Reigns tap out. Here's the footage I made him tap out and an edge hits me with a steel chair I deserve to be in that match I deserve to be in the main event of WrestleMania and I I'm off for it Because you can't in this this this nice little feud between Daniel Daniel and Roman. You can't just end it like this There needs to be some type of Conclusion and I think the best way to conclude this is at WrestleMania Because Daniel Bryan has a legitimate point from a storyline standpoint I beat Roman Reigns. No one has beaten him since he's had the title You know I'm saying since he came back. No one has beaten him. I have beaten him. I tapped him out I made him tap out. I deserve to be in that match if it wasn't for edge I would be the champion right now So I am interested to see how this plays out Honestly, I think it's going to be a triple threat match for the universal championship And I would love to see the dynamic between Daniel Bryan and edge because I think it's going to get intense This match is going to be great if they do set it and I do think they will It with it's WrestleMania. You gotta have the best matches on WrestleMania And there's no bigger match in my opinion on that card Then Daniel Bryan versus Roman Reigns versus edge for the universal championship Comment down below. Let me know if you agree with me But overall this pay-per-view like I said at the beginning of the uh Of my thoughts and opinions At the beginning of the video. I think it was it was okay Of course the the last match definitely made it even more enjoyable for me But ultimately I think this movie I said movie. I'm tripping. I think this pay-per-view is uh was quite enjoyable. Um I think the only matches I would probably watch again is the drew in the uh, uh versus shamans drew versus shamans match And I I would probably end up watching Um Obviously the main event Roman versus uh Daniel Bryan I know there was some match with uh, brawn strome and uh, I guess Um, shame McMahon was supposed to be involved having a match with brawn strome I don't care about shame versus brawn. Who cares not me I don't so I didn't even take notes on that because I that whole that match that segment Don't give a damn But other than that other than the matches. I didn't really too much care for I enjoyed the pay-per-view It was it was okay. It's an okay It was a serviceable pay-per-view definitely the main event and the drew versus shamans match Definitely sold it for me. But comment down below. Let me know. What was your favorite match up tonight? Let me know. I would love to get your guys opinion And if you guys agree with me that you think that the main event will be drew versus I said drew A roman versus edge versus Daniel Bryan comment down below Let me know if you all agree with me on that But I appreciate all the love and support row 240k and I appreciate y'all kicking in with me Now see y'all on the next one. Peace
