The stage is set for a WWE Women’s Championship face-off at Fastlane on October 7. As unveiled on “WWE SmackDown,” IYO SKY will be up against both Charlotte Flair and Asuka in a captivating triple threat match. Before her bout with Bayley on “SmackDown,” Flair, seizing a mic, inquired about the head of Damage CNTRL. Proclaiming her intent, she announced a title challenge against SKY, post her anticipated victory over Bayley.
Living up to her words, Flair triumphed over Bayley using her signature spear. Post-match, an irate Bayley voiced her resentment, asserting Flair can’t merely bypass others for a title opportunity and vowed to thwart her. However, before Bayley could act, Asuka’s entrance theme echoed, and she dashed towards the ring. Both Asuka and Flair managed to fend off Bayley, SKY, and Dakota Kai as they attempted to besiege the ring.
Upon seizing the mic, Asuka articulated in Japanese. Bayley, feigning comprehension, agreed and confirmed Asuka’s inclusion in the title challenge against SKY at Fastlane, transforming it into a triple threat encounter. While Flair and Asuka exchanged triumphant glances inside the ring, SKY shot a puzzled gaze towards her group’s chief.
In another turn of events from Friday’s “SmackDown” episode, LA Knight officially committed to partnering with John Cena, setting the scene for a tag team showdown against the Bloodline at Fastlane. The event is scheduled to be hosted at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
