No holds barred stipulation added to WWE Fastlane match

A stipulation has been added to Drew McIntyre and Sheamus’ match at Fastlane.

WWE has announced that McIntyre vs. Sheamus at Fastlane will now be a no holds barred match. McIntyre vs. Sheamus had been made official for Fastlane earlier this week, but the no holds barred stipulation wasn’t announced until now.

Fastlane is airing live on Peacock and the WWE Network this Sunday.

McIntyre and Sheamus faced off in a no disqualification match on Raw last week, but the match ended in a no contest when they were both laid out after charging at each other while wielding steel steps. That no DQ match was made after Sheamus attacked McIntyre during a backstage interview earlier in the night. McIntyre had defeated Sheamus on Raw the previous week.

 McIntyre challenging for Bobby Lashley’s WWE Championship is set for WrestleMania 37. Lashley defeated Sheamus on Raw this week but was dropped by a Claymore from McIntyre after the match. McIntyre and Sheamus had a staredown to close the episode.

Here’s the updated card for Fastlane:

  • Universal Champion Roman Reigns defends against Daniel Bryan (Edge will be the special guest enforcer for the match)
  • No holds barred match: Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus
  • Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler defend against SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks & Bianca Belair
  • Intercontinental Champion Big E defends against Apollo Crews
  • United States Champion Riddle defends against Mustafa Ali
  • Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon
  • Alexa Bliss vs. Randy Orton
  • Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Seth Rollins
