WWE Fastlane 2019 is finally behind us, and it's safe to say that this pay per view was one to remember.

The final pit-stop on the road to WrestleMania 35, there was plenty on the line, as every Superstar on RAW and SmackDown Live tried to prove why they belonged to be a part of the biggest show of the year.

From The Man punching her ticket to WrestleMania to The Shield's final appearance together as a unit before Ambrose's departure, there was plenty of must-see action delivered.

But whilst there was plenty of upsides, there were some downsides.

Here are three things the WWE got right at the final pay per view before WrestleMania 35, as well as two things that could have been a whole lot better.


#3 Got it right: Match changes

Samoa Joe retained his title against three very game opponents last night.

There were already some great matches already announced for WWE Fastlane, but it seems that someone got into the company's ear and told them to make it better.

Doing so, the company bumped Rey Mysterio and Andrade from the pre-show to the main show, and gave both men a United States title match.

A rematch from last week's SmackDown, both men impressed against former champion R-Truth, and new champion Samoa Joe, who retained the title.

Later on in the show, the WWE decided to add a third man to the WWE Championship match, though it wasn't Kofi Kingston.

Instead, it was Mustafa Ali, the man who was supposed to have gotten the Kofi push before suffering a concussion. Though some plans weren't pleased to see anyone other than the New Day star get a title shot, let's just wait until WrestleMania.
