6) Nakamura Won A Really Fun Opening Match
Rusev and Nakamura put on a much better match than I expected coming into the event. This was a lot of fun from bell-to-bell and the crowd was extremely hot for it.
Great stuff from both guys. Nakamura picked up the win and has some momentum heading into Wrestlemania 34.
Man that Rusev vs Nakamura match was really good. I hope Rusev gets a match @WrestleMania #WWEFastlane

7) The Crowd Was So Bored, They Chanted For Byron Saxton….
The second match of the main card was for the United States Championship. Bobby Roode defended his Title against Randy Orton. It appears as if the crowd wasn’t too into the first half of the match as they started chanting for Byron Saxton….
Lucky for everyone, the action picked up in the second half of the match and so did their noise.
Wow, now THAT’S a whole new level of boredom!!! They were chanting for Byron Saxton!!! #WWEFastlane

“Byron Saxton” chants during Roode vs Orton pretty much sums up my feelings about this match too. #WWEFastlane

8) New United States Champion!
Orton ended up hitting an “RKO OUTTA NOWHERE” for the victory. As a result, we have a new United States Champion!
