THE fallout from Elimination Chamber continued on SmackDown LIVE last night – but now all eyes in WWE are on the Fastlane pay-per-view on March 10.
Here are five things we learnt from SmackDown:
Kofi Kingston will face Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship at Fastlane
Kofi has been the surprise success story of the past week. After stepping in to replace the injured Mustafa Ali, Kofi put on an incredible performance in a gauntlet match and then wowed fans in a nail-biting conclusion to the Elimination Chamber match.
And last night Kofi he secured himself a shot against WWE Champion Daniel Bryan at Fastlane.
Kofi teamed with AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy to take on Daniel Bryan, Samoa Joe, and Randy Orton and scored the pinfall when he nailed Bryan with Trouble in Paradise.
In some ways, the pancake-scoffing, merchandise machine of The New Day is the perfect foil for Bryan’s anti-fast food, anti-plastic environmental crusader character.
But can Kofi score another pinfall over Bryan – this time when the title’s on the line – at Fastlane? Or is it just a time killer before Bryan’s WrestleMania opponent is revealed?
Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargango have broken The Bar
After pinning Raw champs The Revival just one night earlier, the #DIY team of Ciampa and Gargano were back on the main roster for a match against Sheamus and Cesaro.
The crowd reaction for the NXT superstars was much better than it had been on Raw and the two teams had an exciting match.
DIGGING HIS OWN GRAVE WWE fans reckon they’ve found exact moment Corey Graves revealed that he’s allegedly been ‘sleeping with’ Carmella
There was a painful-looking moment when Sheamus landed on Ciampa’s knee from a mistimed top rope sunset flip, buckling Ciampa’s lower leg the wrong way.
Gargano took on most of the action but Ciampa returned to the match and surprised Cesaro with a jackknife-style pinfall for the win.
If WWE really is looking to revitalise its tag division, #DIY are the team to do it.
LATEST WWE NEWS
Aleister Black and Ricochet are also 2-0 on the main roster
This week’s other NXT call-ups were also back in action last night. Aleister Black took on his old foe Andrade in singles action and scored the win when he landed his Black Mass roundhouse kick.
So much for Andrade’s renewed push if he’s now doing the favours for NXT newbies.
And Ricochet picked up a predictable victory over SAnitY leader Eric Young when he landed his incredible 630 splash. At least poor Eric Young got some television time this week.
Mandy Rose beat Asuka… but it’s Lacey Evans who has her sights on the title
With the focus of the women’s division squarely on Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch, SmackDown Women’s Champion Asuka has been the odd one out.
But last night she said she’s ready for new competition. So Mandy Rose, who WWE is obviously desperate to get over (hmmm, wonder why?), came out and challenged Asuka to a non-title match.
Mandy feigned an injured eye and used the distraction to push Asuka into the ropes and get a sneaky roll-up.
It was a weak finish and didn’t do much for Asuka’s killer aura – especially just weeks after Asuka tapped out “The Man” Becky Lynch. Expect Mandy Rose to now get a shot at Asuka’s title at Fastlane.
But the real news is that Lacey Evans came out mid-match to wave at Asuka, Mandy Rose, and Sonya Deville at ringside before sauntering back up the ramp.
There have been reports that Lacey will face Asuka at WrestleMania. This could be the beginning tease of a longer programme with “The Empress”.
Shane and Miz will get another shot at the tag titles
After losing the tag titles at Elimination Chamber, The Miz cut an apologetic promo to Shane and begged him to book a rematch.
He harped on about his dad again – Mr Miz – which really has reached stomach churning levels of schmaltz.
The Usos came out to tell Shane they’d welcome another challenge for their newly-won titles – but they warned Shane that Miz is a joke, a loser, and a fraud.
The Usos called Miz: “A wannabe A-lister with C-list skills.”
Shane booked the match for Fastlane and Miz later revealed that his dad Mr Miz will be sat at ringside for the match. Can Shane and Miz please hurry up and turn on each other?
