The Humberto Carrillo and Andrade match was good. Humberto wins clean this time with a moonsault.
Then, Andrade and Zelina Vega were arguing pretty much and honestly, breaking them up will be a huge mistake considering that the pairing is what makes Andrade unique. I hope once that happens, Andrade can bounce back from it.
The New Day in Kofi Kingston And Big E vs The Revival For The SmackDown Tag Team Championship In a Ladder Match.
Kingston almost killed himself by throwing himself on the outside to the Revival on the ladder. Both Revival members then climbed the ladder but Big E somehow took out both guys with a belly to belly suplex.
Then, Big E himself climbed the ladder but he was halfway there and Scott Dawson drop kicked on Big E's leg, preventing him from climbing to the top.
Kingston stomped on the ladder and it hit both Dawson and Dash Wilder to which he kicked Wilder's head off with the trouble in paradise after he delivered a springboard board tornado DDT on Dawson.
Big E tried to plant Scott Dawson with a splash on the ladder that was set up on the top rope but Wilder kicked Big E's grapefruits and instead, Scott Dawson hits a suplex followed by a stomp on the big man by Wilder through a ladder.
Kingston battled with Dawson on top of the ladder and Kofi Kingston used the title belts to strike on Dawson, throwing himself to the bottom leading to Kofi unhooking the belts to regain the SmackDown tag team championships.
A fun start to a TLC PPV. My imaginary hats off goes to all 4 guys for almost killing themselves in the name of our entertainment.
Baron Corbin told Kalya Braxton in a backstage interview that Roman Reigns should bow down.
Buddy Murphy vs Aleister Black.
The man from Amsterdam had his nose filled with blood thanks to Murphy's quick strikes which is more of an Aleister Black thing.
Black makes his comeback with some knee strikes and a springboard moonsault but Murphy is still fighting.
Speaking of a moonsault, Black hits that move again this time from the ring post on Murphy, however, Murphy countered that with a sitout powerbomb from the top rope to Aleister.
After a series of kicks from the Australian, Aleister knocked him out with the black mass and Black takes the W.
Another hard-hitting brutal match that entertained me and the masses based off the crowd reactions. Hopefully, Aleister Black doesn't wait in a dark room to PICK A. A FIGHT A. WITH HIM A.
Another person who's hopeful for the future is Rusev and he's optimistic that he'll put Lashley through a table in an interview with Charly Caruso.
The Viking Raiders' Open Challenge.
The O.C answered the challenge and it makes sense given that that gave The Viking Raiders their first L almost two months back. Will The Viking Raiders lose once more to The O.C? Well, let's talk about the highlights first.
Also, there are some KFC bucket chicken near the ring post being eaten by some fans (I mean I would've said lucky bastards if KFC chicken is actually you know, good).
The O.C wanted to hit the magic killer on the KFC branded table after the match was over via a count-out but both Viking Raiders threw Karl Anderson through that table.
A mediocre match to be honest but I hope that match was set up that way for a good rematch somewhere down the line.
The Miz said in an interview with Kalya (Billie Kay's voice) that he's fighting not as The Miz but rather as a father and as a husband.
Roman Reigns vs King Corbin In A Tables, Ladders And Chairs Match.
The first and second last TLC match of the evening and it was meh. This bout was a whole lotta brawling, slow chair shots from the 2019 King Of The Ring winner but probably the most impressive thing about this match was a Samoan drop to Corbin through the announce table.
Thanks to the King's influence, Dolph Ziggler and The Revival helps Corbin by hitting on Reigns but the big dog somehow took out both guys along with a bunch of Corbin's personal guards with a suicide dive.
But the former tag team champions and the show off survived that by hitting their respective finishers which led to Corbin delivering the end of days to win this match.
Again, a surprisingly okay match given that I would've disliked that match a lot more if it wasn't for that announce table spot, Ziggler and The Revival showing up.
The Miz vs Bray Wyatt.
This is a friendly, less intimating version of Wyatt's in-ring debut and Miz was pretty much dominant while Bray was laughing. Wyatt finally regained some momentum with a vicious sister Abigail on the outside and another one this time inside the ring and he won the match.
After that bizarre of a match, The Fiend was in the titantron while Bray was looking at the screen to which Wyatt brought a huge hammer and the lights dimmed down. A dude with a red hoodie hits the running knee and he revealed himself as Orange Cassidy, I mean Daniel Bryan.
Bryan wanted to strike Bray with that huge hammer but the lights went down and Bray Wyatt suddenly disappeared. It's as if the 2011 Daniel Bryan went 8 years into the future and faced Bray Wyatt. Nevertheless, it is good to see Daniel Bryan back.
Rusev vs Bobby Lashley In A Tables Match.
I'm not a fan of this storyline but that TMZ theme video package about this storyline was comedy gold. Like the Reigns vs Corbin match, this one was a slow-paced match for the most part and not the best of ways obviously.
Bobby threw Rusev through a table thanks to Lana's distraction leading to Lashley winning this match.
Meanwhile, The Street Profits were talking about the previous match to which the duo's eyes and the camera pointed at the direction of Roman Reigns hitting on Corbin with straight rights. So, there you go. Who cares?
Kabuki Warriors vs Becky Lynch And Charlotte Flair For The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship In A Tables, LaddersAnd Chairs Match.
The second and final TLC match of the night and it had subverted expectations for pro wrestling fans. The unlikely alliance in the man and the queen started off this match all business says Vic Joseph.
Kairi Sane used the fire extinguisher which blinded Flair for a bit and used the rope to tide Flair with a chair and Becky with the ladder. Charlotte somehow got out of it and tried to stop the champs from climbing the ladder but the warrior knocked her out with a kick by Asuka.
Thanks to Charlotte, Becky got out of the rope and attacked Sane with a chair and a kendo stick while Charlotte beats up Asuka. Lynch then delivered Asuka a brutal leg drop through a table to which Charlotte put Kairi Sane through you guessed it, a table moments later.
There's an old saying of "payback's a b*tch" and Flair got a payback thanks to Asuka throwing her through a table.
Asuka pulled the ladder with a rope when Lynch was climbing the ladder and Becky landed hard on the mat leading to the empress climbing the ladder and unhooking the belts to regain the tag belts.
After that, Roman Reigns and Baron Corbin were brawling and the show fades to black. Why WWE put an unnecessary brawl at the end? I have literally no idea.
I'm glad the Kabuki Warriors actually won this match clean with no interference behind it. I was afraid that they would lose the belts but that fear went away thanks to WWE's booking/ Shout out to all the women in that match. By the way, I'm hearing that Kairi Sane apparently suffered a concussion according to Bryan Alveraz via a tweet he sent out so well wishes to Sane.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: Buddy Murphy vs Aleister Black, The New Day vs The Revival, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch vs The Kabuki Warriors, Daniel Bryan coming back.
Didn't like: The Viking Raiders vs The O.C, The ending to TLC (completely unnecessary), Rusev vs Bobby Lashley.
