The 2023 Fastlane is the upcoming seventh Fastlane professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE. It will be held for wrestlers from the promotion’s Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. The event will take place on Saturday, October 7, 2023, at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana, and will be the first Fastlane held since 2021, subsequently making it the first held to be held on a Saturday and in October. This will also be WWE’s first PPV and livestreaming event held in Indianapolis since Clash of Champions in September 2016, which was at the same arena when it was formally known as Bankers Life Fieldhouse (the arena changed its name to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in 2021). The name of the event originally referred to its position on the “Road to WrestleMania”, however, this was dropped for 2023 due to the event taking place six months after WrestleMania 39.
