FastLane 2016 is here and we have a ginormous Episode for you to really get your juices flowing for the big event.
Episode 75 kicks off with our review of Smackdown from February 18, 2016. Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns would take on the Dudley Boyz in the Main Event. Would there be further tension between the Brothers In Arms? And what role would Brock Lesnar…making his first Smackdown appearance in 12 years…play in the furtherance of this story-line? That and all the latest on the Chris Jericho v. AJ Styles rivalry, Divas, and much more as WWE ended the go-home week for FastLane. Did they go out with a whimper or a bang? We let you know on Episode 75.
From there, we were very pleased, honored, and excited to welcome back to show the host and founder of Ring Rust Radio, Donald Wood, to preview FastLane 2016 with us. We cover a ton of ground in this awesome 90 minute preview of this hugely important PPV. From the kickoff show, best 2 out of 3 falls match between Kalisto and Alberto Del Rio for the US Championship through the Main Event, Triple Threat match between Brock Lesnar, Dean Ambrose, and Roman Reigns, to determine who will face Triple H for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 32, we analyze and predict the winners of each match. But beyond a mere preview for FastLane, we carry through many of the story-lines to Dallas and, to a large degree, preview WrestleMania 32 as well. It is a fantastic preview and one we think fans of both shows will greatly enjoy.
From there, we return to the Temple as we continue our review of Season 1 of Lucha Underground. This week, we look at Episode 3. Chavo Guerrero explains his actions, but has he drawn the ire of powers and people he did not want to mess with, such as the massive Mil Muertes and his devious companion, Catrina? Johnny Mundo demands a match with Big Rick from Dario Cueto. In the Main Event, we get a thrilling Triple Threat match between Drago, Pentagon Jr, and Fenix. It is the best match we have seen so far in LU. Which luchador came out on top? We let you know on Episode 75.
As if that wasn’t enough great content, we also give you a Hot Tag. This week, we analyze and discuss the greatest factions of all-time. We give our listing of our Top 10 (plus a few Honorable Mentions). There have been so many tremendous factions that have left such an impact on professional wrestling over the years. Which ones made our list? Tune in to Episode 75 to find out.
