Feb 1, 2018 at 9:15 PM
The Road to Wrestlemania has begun with the Royal Rumble event on this past Sunday. This has been the tradition for years in the WWE to pave the road towards the biggest stage of the year.
Meanwhile, there will be two stops for both the brands of Raw and Smackdown Live. From Raw, there’s one more PPV, Elimination Chamber whereas Smackdown will host the Fastlane PPV.
With the dual-brand PPV is over, both the shows are getting ready for the brand-exclusive PPV events. There has been a massive announcement from the WWE regarding the Fastlane PPV main event that is all set to happen in the month of March to determine who will head to the showcase of immortals with the WWE Championship around his waist.
The scenario of the WWE title was addressed on this past edition of the Tuesday Night show. Shinsuke Nakamura has won the Royal Rumble challenging AJ Styles setting up a dream match at Wrestlemania 34.
However, the reigning title-holder will have to defend his title, once more in order to confirm the match.
