WWE has announced that McIntyre vs. Sheamus will take place at this Sunday’s Fastlane pay-per-view. The show is airing live on Peacock and the WWE Network.
Sheamus turned against McIntyre last month and wanted a one-on-one match for the WWE Championship, but an Elimination Chamber match for the title was instead announced. Sheamus pinned McIntyre to win a gauntlet match leading into the PPV. McIntyre retained the WWE Championship in the Elimination Chamber match but was then attacked by Bobby Lashley. The Miz then cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to win the WWE Championship from McIntyre. On Raw two weeks ago, Lashley defeated Miz in a lumberjack match for the title.
Also on Raw two weeks ago, McIntyre made his first appearance since Elimination Chamber. He defeated Sheamus in a one-on-one match. McIntyre was attacked by Sheamus during a backstage segment last week, which led to them facing each other in a no disqualification match later in the night. The match ended in a no contest after McIntyre and Sheamus both charged at each other while wielding steel steps.
It was confirmed on Raw tonight that Lashley will defend his WWE Championship against McIntyre at WrestleMania 37.
