WWE Fastlane is coming at us quickly and will mark the last time SmackDown Live has a pay-per-view all to themselves for the foreseeable future.
On this week’s episode of SmackDown Live, The New Day battled Shelton Benjamin and Chad gable in a #1 contender’s match to determine who would go to face The Usos at Fastlane.
After a pretty intense and equally matched contest, Xavier Woods ended up catching Shelton Benjamin with a shining wizard and securing the pinfall for his team.
Therefore The New Day will battle The Usos once again at Fastlane in a match where they have the opportunity to try and top their previous outings against each other.
This calls for a celebration! #TheNewDay will challenge @WWEUsos for the #SDLive #TagTeamTitles at #WWEFastlane! @XavierWoodsPhD @WWEBigE @TrueKofi pic.twitter.com/Hx81P7V2eZ
