John Cena has found a partner for WWE Fastlane, LA Knight.
Cena came to the ring on the September 29th episode of SmackDown to address his match at Fastlane and the beatdown he suffered from The Bloodline the previous week.
The 16 time World Champion was left without a partner for Fastlane on September 22nd as his first choice AJ Styles was taken out Cena then declared he had 2 options, rip up the contract or fight The Bloodline 2 on 1.
The beatdown from The Bloodline began for a second straight week. Just as it looked like Cena was about to be driven through the announce table, the music of LA Knight hit to a massive pop from the Sacramento crowd.
Knight picked up the contract and signed it, confirming his involvement at Fastlane.
It was reported that this was the original plan for the September 22nd episode but Knight was unable to make it due to contracting COVID-19.
The updated line-up for WWE Fastlane is as follows:
- Seth Rollins (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura – Last Man Standing match for the World Heavyweight Championship
- John Cena and LA Knight vs. Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso
- IYO SKY (c) vs. Asuka and Charlotte Flair – Triple threat match for the WWE Women’s Championship
