– As noted, Alberto Del Rio has been dealing with a lower back injury. It’s said that while Del Rio will be facing WWE United States Champion Kalisto at Fastlane, he’s not 100% but is good enough to go. We noted before that Del Rio suffered the injury from a Brock Lesnar suplex in the Royal Rumble 30-man main event. Word now is that he was injured from either taking a vertical suplex from Lesnar at the Rumble or a German suplex on the January 18th RAW event.
– Going into this week’s WWE SmackDown, the main event finish for SmackDown was a DQ or a count out in 10 of the last 13 weeks. This week’s main event saw Roman Reigns and WWE Intercontinental Champion Dean Ambrose defeat Rusev and Del Rio by pinfall.
