Wwe Tlc 2019 Rumors
WWE will hold the TLC pay-per-view event on Sunday, December 15, 2019, in Minneapolis at the Target Center and will air it on the WWE Network. Here are the matches locally advertised. WWE TLC is coming up on December 15th and they don’t have any matches booked for the card as of this writing. They do plan on holding a full pay-per-view so there are a few matches expected. The latest backstage WWE News, results, rumors, spoilers, and more professional wrestling news from all top promotions.
Except for the few disappointments, WWE TLC was a pretty enjoyable pay-per-view, especially if you consider the lackluster build-up to the show. It definitely surpassed the low expectations, but it could have been better if it wasn’t for some questionable bookings. Nobody expected much from TLC as it is holiday time and wrestling, in general, is on the back burner. That is always the case with all the December PPVs, but having a stipulation heavy show like TLC still brought in a lot of eyes to the show.
Here is my assessment of the show and what I think were the best and worst things coming out of TLC 2019.
Best: Opening Match
The show started with the SmackDown tag team championship between The New Day vs The Revival. The match had everything that a good ladder should have. All the four wrestlers involved gave everything to come out of the match with a victory. They took some horrible bumps as well, like bumps on a laid-out ladder by Big E and Dash Wilder with Big Ending from the top of the ladder. It was a fast-paced match with great action to provide the perfect start to the show.
Kofi Kingston was the MVP of the match as he was involved in many of the big spots and was the one who got the victory for The New Day in the end. It was a good way to end a very successful year for him.
Worst: King Corbin Going Over Roman Reigns
Baron Corbin and Roman Reigns’ storyline is generally getting a negative reaction from the fans. It is one of those storylines that fans want to end as soon as possible so that the wrestlers can move to something meaningful. The match itself didn’t feel like a TLC match. It was just a no disqualification match. The stipulation was obviously added to get Dolph Ziggler and The Revival involved.
The match itself was decent, but the ending took everything away from the competitors. The finish of the match came when Dolph Ziggler, The Revival, and Baron Corbin hit their respective finishers for Corbin to get get the pinfall victory over Roman. Because of that, the feud will go on for more weeks to come and we again have to sit through those 20-minutes Corbin’s promos where he makes fun of Roman’s dog gimmick.
Here’s to more dog costumes and dog food.
Best: Aleister Black vs Buddy Murphy
Aleister Black vs Buddy Murphy stole the show last night. It was exactly the way it was promised to the fans. The bout was a hard-hitting affair and both wrestlers went all out. There wasn’t much in terms of the storyline, but if there are any wrestlers who can do without one, it is these two. Even though there wasn’t much crowd support at the start of the match, Aleister Black received a standing ovation when he got the pin over Murphy at the end. He is now undefeated on the Raw brand.
We also learned that Aleister Black is cool if you break his jaw, but if you touch his coat, he will kill you.
Worst: OC Being The Mystery Opponents
For the biggest wrestling company in the world, WWE is finding it hard to grasp the concept that, ‘fans expect a big name if you don’t reveal the name of the opponents in advance’. There was no need to keep The OC a secret. They are a regular part of Raw and were heavily featured in the last few weeks alongside AJ Styles. OC and Viking Raiders has a lot of history between them as Viking Raiders’ only loss in the main roster has come against The OC.
They could have built up the match on Raw and could have had the match at TLC. The OC got no crowd reaction when they came out as people were disappointed to not see a returning team to accept the challenge. On top of that, the match was just an advertisement for KFC. Commentators were using chicken puns throughout the course of the match and the match ended with a double count-out just so that WWE could book another match between the two on Raw. So now we are using pay-per-views to build towards a match on weekly shows?
Best: Women’s Tag Team Match Main-eventing The Show
It was a great idea to let the women’s tag team match main event the show. The ladies tore the house down and it had some of the most innovative spots of the night. Kabuki Warriors tying Becky Lynch to the table outside the ring was a clever tactic as it took her out of the match. Main eventing a pay-per-view would bring a lot of value to the women’s tag team titles moving forward and Kabuki Warriors winning at the end was another good decision as it would keep the belts in the limelight. If Becky and Charlotte Flair would have won it, the spotlight would have been on their friendship rather than the title.
This was inarguably the best Women’s Tag Team Championship match in history. Becky is now the only woman to main-event four pay-per-views (WrestleMania, Extreme Rules, Survivor Series, TLC) in a single year.
Worst: Bray Wyatt vs The Miz
'I'm really excited about this!!!!'

It is baffling to see how WWE managed to ruin a great character like Bray Wyatt twice. When Bray Wyatt returned with his new gimmick after WrestleMania this year, he quickly became the hottest thing in wrestling by a huge margin. The Fiend became the talk of the town when he made his wrestling debut at SummerSlam to defeat Finn Balor. But, everything went downhill from there.

Now, all his matches are the same. He let his opponents get the offense at first before he could hit them with a move to win the match. It was the same last night as well, except that he was without his Fiend’s mask. Wyatt’s character work was great, but the match itself was a downer. Daniel Bryan was the saving grace of the entire match. The Universal Champion needs to come up with something good if he wants to stay as the face of WWE.

TLC 2019: WHO WILL BE IN THE MAIN EVENT THIS YEAR?

The forthcoming edition is going to be the last pay-per-view for the year 2019 and so many upgrades have been done to set up the matches and storyline heading into the event.

Match Card of TLC 2019
It is no longer news that the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota is the host venue for TLC 2019 slated for December 15th. The main event will witness the first ever Women’s TLC Tag Team Match with Kairi Sane and Asuka defending their WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles against Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch, the current RAW Women’s Champion, Roman Reigns vs. King Baron Corbin in a TLC match, and Rusev vs. Bobby Lashley in a singles match.
In spite of the viral advertising sent by WWE to the arena, the stipulation for Reigns vs. Corbin may eventually be changed because it has not been finalized. A Dog Collar match is also being discussed by the WWE officials and this could be a massive attraction for the audience who have never witnessed such an eye-catching novelty for a while.
Concerning the match card for WWE Survivor Series pay-per-view that is slated for the 24th of November at Allstate Arena near Chicago, the match between Rusev and Lashley was moved from there to TLC due to the feeling that the show looks already overloaded. The 15-person Elimination Matches between WWE Smackdown, RAW and NXT teams would, in theory have to go 11 to 15 falls each, with some quick eliminations. Present plans are for Rusev vs. Lashley to be a non-stipulation match at TLC. While there have been rumors as to changes in the stipulation for Reigns vs. Corbin at TLC, the three advertised matches are set to be the main matches of the show.
No information has been gotten yet on the participants representing Team NXT men’s Triple Threat. Team Smackdown will feature Shorty G, Roman Reigns, Mustafa Ali, King Baron Corbin, and Ali and Braun Strowman G may lose their places to Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode on Friday’s Smackdown as they slug it out in a tag team match with their places on the line, while Team RAW will feature Kevins Owens, Seth Rollins, Ricochet, Randy Orton, and Drew McIntyre.
Dog Collar Match Rules
In a Dog Collared Match, the opponents will get attached to each other via dog collars while wrestling. It prevents them from getting separated during the course of the match.
Submissions and normal pinfall counts to announce the match outcome, it is also another way of gaining the win. The superstars can also consecutively touch the four corners of the ring to be proclaimed as the winner.
