It’s the (WWE) FASTLANE (PPV) to WrestleMania! And you know what that means – actually.. we kind of don’t, do we? This is the first event of its kind, and it’s on free TV, essentially, so here goes nothing!

Tonight, WWE jumps in the Fastlane to WrestleMania. Will the last big show before WrestleMania make Andy angry?
Last night was the 2015 Royal Rumble, which answered two age old questions: How can one man subsist on German suplexes alone? And, how many adult Philadelphians acting like children who’ve had their favorite toy away does it take to nearly derail a professional wrestling show?
There are a lot of unknowns heading into the Royal Rumble, and that has Andy pretty excited. And if WWE doesn’t capitalize, it’s going to make Andy really angry.
It’s the Royal Rumble, the State of the Union of the WWE! And you know what that means – time to figure out which way the WWE can make itself less palatable to overgrown manchildren who refuse to appreciate that the product isn’t made for them. OR something like that, we’ll just be focusing on the next entrant.
Cesaro goes down swinging, Rusev crushes and (SPOILER ALERT ) Dean gets a face full of Sister Abigail. And for an added bonus: you get to listen to us talk about it (if you want.)
It’s Hell in a Cell Sunday, which means it’s time once again for Nick to ask: What’s the Worst That Could Happen?
Hell in a Cell is here…and it doesn’t look too exciting. Maybe it’s because we know we won’t see anything too crazy. Maybe it’s because the show feels like one big re-run. Maybe it’s both.
But once the action gets under way, there’s only one question to ask: will it make Andy angry?
Riding its surprisingly effective gimmick — every title on the line on the same night — the Night of Champions PPVs have always been somewhere between “watchable” (2013) and “awesome” (2008). With what might be called a ‘lackluster” ending, this year’s edition wasn’t exactly a barnburners on the level of years past, but it served a great deal of purpose to move any number of forward and gave us more than a few solid-to-fantastic matches along the way. So, we have that going for us, which is nice.
Tonight, WWE presents Night of Champions. It’s the only show of the year where you’re guaranteed to see every title on the line.
Let’s find out if it’s going to make Andy angry.
