WWE Fastlane 2023 Match Predictions

By Mean Jean
NEW YORK, NY - JANUARY 23: John Cena stops by the newest Tapout Fitness location in Herald Square to talk fitness and share his favorite looks from the Tapout fitness apparel collection available at JCPenney on January 23, 2017 in New York City.

WWE’s back on Peacock for their annual Fastlane premium live event, while emanate from the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN on Saturday night at 8 pm. On paper this isn’t the biggest card of the year, but for the most part WWE has delivered quality wise with their shows this year.

I’ll preview and make predictions for every match on WWE Fastlane Saturday night. Following last night’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW, there are five matches official for the event. One more match is expected to be announced on this week episodes Friday Night SmackDown on FOX. Although it’s not clear what that match will be, here’s what we know so far.

The official WWE Fastlane 2023 match card:

  1. Seth “Freakin” Rollins (C) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura. Last Man Standing Match, for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
  2. John Cena & LA Knight vs. Solo Sikoa & Jimmy Uso (with Paul Heyman)
  3. Iyo Sky (C) vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Auska. Triple Threat Match for the WWE Women’s Championship
  4. The Judgment Day (Finn Balor & Damien Priest) vs. Cody Rhodes & “Main Event” Jey Uso. WWE Undisputed Tag Title Match
  5. The Latino World Order (Rey Mysterio, Santos Escobar, & Cruz del Toro or Joaquin Wilde) (w/ Zelina Vega) vs. Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits (Six Man Tag Match)

For context, I went 5/8 on my 2023 WWE SummerSlam Predictions.

As I stated above, not the biggest or best card of the year, but I think the show will deliver in ring. Check out my WWE Fastlane 2023 predictions, the event is sold out, but if you want to get more info of WWE Fastlane you can get that on WWE.com.

  • WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match, Last Man Standing: Seth "Freakin'" Rollins (C) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura. Last

    This is a rematch of their match last month at Payback, where Seth Rollins retained the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Since getting drafted to RAW, Nakamura has had somewhat of a career resurgence, but I don’t see Seth Rollins losing his title until WrestleMania 40 next year in Philly.

    Prediction: Seth Rollins retains

  • Tag Team Match: John Cena & LA Knight vs. Solo Sikoa & Jimmy Uso

    This will be John Cena first televised match of 2023, and LA Knight is the hottest act in the company right now. They are facing the Bloodline, but with Roman Reigns not coming back to SmackDown until after the show, Solo and Jimmy losing to get Roman riled up they’ll take the loss.

    Prediction: John Cena & LA Knight win

  • Triple Threat Match for the WWE Women's Championship: Iyo Sky (C) vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Auska

    Both women’s divisions are kind of a mess right now in WWE, but the talent is there so the matches mostly deliver. Auska lost the title to Bianca Belair at SummerSlam then she immediately lost it to Iyo and her Money in the Bank briefcase. Iyo then defended against, Auska and won by nefarious ways. Charlotte did what Charlotte does and gets forced into a title match, and she better not win or the wrestling community will collectively lose their minds.

    This is Iyo’s first big title defense and she should hang on to the title

    Prediction: Iyo Sky retains

  • Six Man Tag Match: The LWO vs. Bobby Lashley & the Street Profits

    While everyone is calling them The Hurt Business 2.0 Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits have yet to officially name themselves. Either way, they’re a brand new group and there’s no way they’re losing their first match as a unit.

    Prediction: Bobby Lashley & the Street Profits win

  • WWE Undisputed Tag Title Match: The Judgement Day (Finn Balor & Damien Priest) vs. Cody Rhodes & "Main Event" Jey Uso

    This match kind of came out of nowhere, and was announced on WWE Monday Night RAW, the Judgement Day have been going back and forth with some combinations of Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn and now Jey Uso for months now, with most people expecting it to end in War Games at Survivor Series in Chicago. The Judgement Day just won the titles last month, so there’s no way they’re losing the title Saturday night.

    Prediction: The Judgement Day retains
