It’s January, which means the Royal Rumble is quickly approaching, and as soon as the event ends we will officially be on the Road to WrestleMania.
That’s right folks, WrestleMania is getting closer and closer with each passing day, and there are only 3 pay-per-views set to air on the WWE Network before the Show of Shows.
After the Royal Rumble in January, Raw will get its first brand exclusive pay-per-view since October in the form of Elimination Chamber in February, and then the stars of SmackDown Live will then head to Fastlane in March.
Fastlane will be the final pay-per-view before WrestleMania 34, and it was recently confirmed that the stars of SmackDown Live will be joined by a special guest at the event.
The Nationwide Arena is advertising John Cena for a special guest appearance, and the following was recently posted on social media:

Plans can always changed between now and March, but it’s also worth noting that the Nationwide Arena official website is advertising a fatal five-way match between AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Randy Orton, and Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Championship.
