WWE Fast Lane 2015: Stars Who Will Break Out at PPV Event

Fresh off the heels of the Royal Rumble, the WWE have just one more pay-per-view show before the biggest event of the year—WrestleMania 31.

With storylines tentatively starting to come together for that event, Fast Lane presents WWE Creative with an opportunity to convince fans across the world that WrestleMania is a show they cannot afford to miss.

With the WWE Network free for the month of February, it also means Fast Lane will be well and truly in the spotlight. If the show goes well, it could have a big impact on Network subscriptions. If it goes badly, well, we all saw the reaction to the Royal Rumble.

The key in the weeks leading up to WrestleMania is ensuring that there are plenty of stars breaking out so that they are ready for their big moment at the biggest pay-per-view of the year. Fast Lane should provide us with a few stars who will do just that.

Bad News Barrett

The Englishman quickly captured the Intercontinental Championship upon his return from the injured list, but his reign as champion hasn't quite gone to plan thus far.

Losing to Dean Ambrose put him in line for a title shot at Fast Lane, but his loss to Sin Cara on SmackDown last month was slightly disconcerting for Barrett fans.

Thankfully, the aforementioned match with Dean Ambrose at the upcoming pay-per-view should catapult Barrett to the forefront of everyone's minds again. He's a solid worker inside the ring, and there's no doubting he's a very credible heel with his current gimmick.

Working with someone who is as over as Ambrose is with the WWE fans is what Barrett has been waiting for since his return. If that feud can go on to WrestleMania and potentially beyond, then Barrett will be on an upward curve once again.

Cesaro and Tyson Kidd

These are encouraging times for Tyson Kidd, who has been plucked from obscurity and thrown into the fire of the tag team division.

Thankfully for the Canadian, the WWE opted to pair him with one of their best workers, which leads to a tag team with plenty of dynamics and excitement attached to them.

Cesaro and Tyson Kidd just seem to click—especially inside the ring. Kidd's aerial agility matched with Cesaro's brute force is a nice blend, and just the kind that seems to make you a hit in tag wrestling.

It seems they will square off against The Usos at Fast Lane, and with Natalya thrown into the mix to effectively make it a six-person rivalry, there's plenty of legs for this feud—which is something you couldn't say about the tag division too often in 2014.

Give Cesaro and Kidd airtime, and there's no way they will disappoint. Could they be the bright hope for the tag division moving forward?

Bray Wyatt

It's fair to argue that Wyatt actually broke out at the Royal Rumble—at least before he was unceremoniously tossed out of the match following a marathon 46-minute, 59-second performance.

However, he's kept that momentum going heading out of the Rumble, and all signs point toward Fast Lane being a defining night in the career of Bray Wyatt.

He's destined for a match with The Undertaker, and given how the WWE have made the Network free for February, it's clear they have something special planned for the upcoming pay-per-view.

That would mirror their actions in making the Network free for Survivor Series, which of course saw the long-awaited debut of Sting in WWE.

Wyatt vs. Undertaker should be the feud that turns the former into a WWE World Heavyweight Championship contender.
