After putting him through a table and covering him in green slime on Monday Night Raw, Shane McMahon found himself booked in a match with Braun Strowman at Sunday’s Fastlane pay-per-view. But then, without any sort of announcement or explanation, the match was quietly pulled from WWE.com’s official preview of the event. Fans assumed it was canceled, but then the SmackDown commentary team brought it back up during Friday’s episode.
