Rusev takes issue with Nakamura's WrestleMania challenge seeing as how Rusev just defeated Shinsuke this past Sunday at Fastlane. If anyone should be facing AJ at WrestleMania it should be Rusev. While AJ would prefer to have a big dream match against Nakamura at the showcase of the immortals, Rusev does have a point. So “The Phenomenal One” suggests a Fastlane rematch between the two right now with Aiden English banned from ringside as SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon appears to okay the idea.

Mojo Rawley had a good night on Sunday at Fastlane when he brought his team to victory against The Usos and Zack Ryder. As a result, he showed up to this dump of a place called Birmingham and saw that WWE management now have him listed as the #1 contender for the WWE United States Championship. So Mojo puts the champ Xavier Woods on notice. He wants that title and he wants it at WrestleMania!

Randy Orton hits the scene and says that he'll be damned if Mojo makes it to WrestleMania instead of “The Viper” but before things can get any further Rawley informs Randy that he's got someone else to deal with before he can even speak to Mojo about anything...

SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon seemed pleased over potentially causing a permanent rift between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn when the two had to ace off against each other at times during last Sunday's Six-Pack Challenge for the WWE Championship at Fastlane.

Shane reveals two blockbuster revelations: SmackDown Live General Manager Daniel Bryan will return next week would be appearing alone, as Shane will be taking an indefinite leave of absence as SmackDown Live Commissioner.

Shane-O-Mac then declared that Owens and Zayn would compete against each other at WrestleMania, drawing out the irate KO & Sami, who believed Shane was just trying to toy with them one more time before he took off.
