(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - The Fastlane Pay Per View (PPV) was Sunday and time for the Wrestlemania push to happen.  No time for sagging story lines and matches that do not build up for the biggest PPV for the WWE.  This was essentially an average SmackDown, and did not really did nothing to get anyone excited about the upcoming PPV. This is especially true after such a great return of Shane McMahon on RAW.


Some things I still need to happen in the WWE Universe:

  1. Bring back the Cruiser Weight Division
  2. Make all the matches mean something to some sort of belt or rivalry.  
  3. Show more of the roster.  You guys recycle the same talent too much.
  4. You may wish to consider bringing the Diva's division full circle and have them with Tag Title belts, lightweight belts, etc. 
  5. The Tag Team Division is starting to look better than the singles division.  Get more people graduated from NXT and get that division showcased more. 

Here are the highlights of the show:
