Beware: you are about to enter a world where booking makes sense and stars are treated as stars.
So this world diverges from our own during the royal rumble match. The final 10 participants are: ryback, ziggler, kane, big show, bryan, wyatt, Ambrose, reigns, rusev and Barrett.
Kane and big show double team and eliminate ryback, who are then both super kicked over the top rope by Ziggler. Ziggler gloats but they start to beat up ryback on the outside distracting ziggler who is eliminated by wyatt from behind. Ambrose clotheslines himself and Barrett out of the match. The final four are reigns, bryan, wyatt and rusev. Reigns eliminates rusev who then climbs back in and eliminates reigns, Bryan and wyatt go at it in a similar way to the end of the hbk-taker rumble of 2007 and bryan wins.
This creates several divergences with the current 31 card. Reigns feuds with rusev instead of cena, bryan vs lesnar is the main event. The major differences for fast lane are reigns vs rusev, bryan vs rollins, and cena is in an 8 man tag with ryback ziggler and Rowan vs kane big show and j and j security. Reigns feud with rusev is identical to Cena's except there's a reason for it and the match except for signature moves is identical down to the cheating finish. The 8 man tag match is won by the faces when ziggler saves cena from being hit with a chair by big show and then cena hits the aa on kane to pick up the pin. Rowan and ryback throw cena up on their shoulders to celebrate. Ziggler looks pissed and after ryback and Rowan leave ziggler lays a beat down on cena. Rollins feud with bryan is about rollins saying he damaged lesnar at the rumble and he came the closest to beating lesnar anyone can but bryan starts showing a far more aggressive side of himself, he's angry, he won't be doubted and he's not afraid of any man or beast. He beats rollins clean and then Orton and rollins brawl after the match. Everything else is the same for fast lane as far as other stars and builds are concerned.
The next night ziggler explains he never got the credit he deserved for being sole survivor of team cena. All people talked about was sting and cena when he was the real hero. He overcame three other guys and defeated the authority and unlike sting he shows up every week to steal the show. He's sick of cena stealing the spot light, last night he saved cena and had that not happened cena would never have won. Cena says he respects ziggler and that it's not him who steals the spot light it's the authority. Their feud is very reminiscent of hbk hogan except ziggler is a rightous heel who makes valid points.
Reigns rusev's fued remains identical to Cena's except instead of submitting him he just keeps beating him down til he gets his rematch. Also this feud could actually get baby face sympathy for reigns because of the pro usa stuff.
Bryan and rollins have a rematch inside of a steel cage to prevent Orton from interfering. Bryan wins clean again by pin and heyman and lesnar come out to confront bryan after the match with the cage still down. Rollins gets on the mic and says again that he put the damage on lesnar and that's the only reason bryan has a chance. Lesnar gets out to confront rollins and bryan locks the cage with him and heyman trapped inside. Lesnar is forced to watch as bryan lays a huge beat down on heyman. Then bryan climbs the cage and does a splash on lesnar.
Rollins transitions into a feud with Orton from there. With enough interaction with lesnar and bryan to hint at a cash in.
Bryan is no longer baby face underdog he's the American dragon except in wwe language.he faces other men with similar builds to lesnar like Henry, show, and kane and beats them all clean. Heyman shows up and talks about lesnar's accomplishments and says much like he was trapped with bryan in the cage at 31 bryan will be trapped with lesnar. Bryan says "I'm not trapped there with him, he's trapped there with me!" Bryan uses quickness, technical prowess and aggression in brawls with lesnar where he gets the upper hand and in brawls where lesnar gets the upper hand bryan is basically like " is that all you got?"
Instead of a 7 man ladder match it's either Ambrose vs Barrett in a ladder match and add r truth and Harper to the battle royal.
Gold dust and star dust face each other.

Bryan vs lesnar gets a full half hour. Bryan gets beat down first half of the match very summer slam like. Bryan makes his come back but lesnar kicks out of two running knees and reverse the yes lock into an f 5. Bryan kicks out of two f 5s. The ending sequence is bryan goes for a final knee gets caught in mid air put in a kimura bryan tries to kick his way or of it but can't break free, he doesn't tap or pass out but instead his arm "snaps" and the ref calls the match out of safety concerns. Bryan is pissed and says he's better with one arm than lesnar with two. Lesnar looks exhausted as he celebrates and Paul gloats in Bryan's face as he holds one limp arm. Bryan hits one final running knee and lands on his "broken arm" and rolls out of the ring. Rollins runs down hits a couple brief case shots and curb stomps and wins the title.

Instead bryan forms a tag team called (r)evolution with cena as the past, bryan the present, reigns the future, to feud with hhh rollins and Ambrose. The faces win. Bryan reclaims the title at NOC and holds it til 32 to drop it to the rumble winner wyatt who eventually drops it to a now ready reigns,
