WWE Fastlane 2023 Premium Live Event will be emanating in the fall of this year as announced on the official website of the company. The announcement came for the very first time during the latest edition of The Pat McAfee Show.
Roman Reigns’ Special Counsel Paul Heyman was a guest on the show on the June 20 episode. While in the conversation, the two of them announced that WWE Fastlane 2023 will be returning, later this year. After a gap of one year, the event is making its way back into the schedule in an unusual slot, that’s on October 7 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana.

In the official announcement, it was noted that tickets for WWE Fastlane 2023 will go on sale Friday, July 14, at 10 AM ET via TicketMaster. As always, a pre-sale registration for early ticket booking will also be available for the show at this given link. Priority Passes will also be released on Wednesday, June 21 at 9 AM ET through exclusive partner On Location.
WWE Payback Returning As Premium Live Event In 2023
WWE Fastlane 2023 will stream live exclusively on Peacock in the United States and on the WWE Network, everywhere else. This will be the first time that a premium live event will emanate from Indianapolis in seven years. The last time the city hosted a PLE was WWE TLC in October 2017. WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle returned to in-ring competition on that night.
After introducing this show into the schedule in February 2015, it was an annual pay-per-view until 2019. The event wasn’t held in 2020 and then in 2022. Thus, 2021 was the last year that Fastlane was held in the main event of which Roman Reigns retained his Universal Championship against Daniel Bryan.
Since its inception, this particular event generally served as the final stop on the Road to Wrestlemania. Thus, WWE Fastlane 2023 will be the first time that it will be going down outside its original slot of either February or March.
