WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (2018 TV Special) User Reviews

Had its good moments (discussed) like always!

[MuviFan73 · 7/10 · 17 December 2018]

The good moments mostly belonged to matches conducted between women's category. There were three of them. Only one match from men's category I find worth mentioning. I dint have any personal favorite for the matches among women, despite that it was a terrific show.

The match between Natalya and Ruby Riot was a table's match. Sympathy was with Natalya. It seemed she single handedly took on Riot squad and won. What a match!

The other match between women's category was one which I was eying for quite a time now. It was between Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax for raw women's championship. It was a good fight. Ronda won.

The last women's match was a three womens ladder match between Becky, Asuka and Charlotte for smackdown's women's championship. It was one hell of a show. Asuka won.

Finally the match I liked most. This was a match which took on corrupt methods of Baron Corbin against Braun Strowman. It made Brawn to face Brock Lesnar in next major event for universal championship. A request to whoever is going to be RAW's manager. Please don't alter the mentioned match. I am looking very forward to it.

TLC 2018

On paper it was a solid show but the delivery was a little bit flawed. It was way too long and featured a lot of matches we did not need on PPV. Riott/Natalya, the Mixed Tag Finals and Balor/McIntyre did not need to be on the show. We'll probably get both singles matches repeated on Raw this week too.

The main matches were okay, but having so many No DQ matches made a lot of the big spots individually not mean much.

Fun PPV to end the year!

TLC proved to be fun and entertaining in many ways. There were some absolutely quality matches and the few average but overall a very strong PPV to end the year with!

NICE WAY 2 END THE YEAR WITH A MUCH BETTER PPV THAN MOST OF 2018 I SINCERELY ENJOYED IT FOR THE MOST PART!

[jamontjohnson-83319 · 9/10 · 17 December 2018]

TLC 2018 WAS VERY ENJOYABLE ON MY PART I SAT AND WATCHED IT LIVE AT SAP CENTER IN LOW LEVEL SECTION 115 EVEN THOUGH SOME THINGS THAT WERE PRESENTED WERE PURELY FLAWED SUCH AS: 1. HAVING THE OPENER WITH MIXED MATCH CHALLENGE DONE AND OVER IN FIVE MINUTES THOUGH I LOVED THAT CARMELLA USED CODE OF SILENCE 2 WIN WHICH SHE RARELY DOES NOWADAYS. 2. THE BAR DEF THE NEW DAY AND USOS IN TWELVE MINUTES IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 17 MINUTES PLUS A DIFFERENT WINNER. 3.BRAUN STROWMAN DEF BARON CORBIN WELL WHAT DO YOU SAY ABOUT THIS- BRAUN SHOULD HAVE DONE A ONE HANDED CHOKESLAM OR POWERSLAM TO CORBIN BEING THAT HE JUST COVERED HIM AFTER ALL HIS COHORTS THAT DID NOT LIKE BARON HIT HIM WITH CHAIRS AND THEIR FINISHERS.(THAT MADE BRAUN LOOK EVEN WEAKER THOUGH I KNOW HE HAD AN INJURY BUT IT'S GOOD BC IS NO LONGER IN CONTROL OF RAW) 4.NATAYLA WINNING WAS GREAT SINCE IT WAS HER SOLE ONE ON ONE VICTORY AT PPV THIS YEAR BUT THE TABLES MATCH WAS TOO LONG SHOULD HAVE BEEN 7 TO 9 MINUTES NOT 13 MINUTES. 5. DREW MCINTYRE DOMINATING MOST OF HIS FIGHT WITH FINN BALOR ONLY TO LOSE TO HIM DUE TO DOLPH ZIGGLER GETTING INVOLVED WAS TRULY STUNNING AND A TERRIBLE CALL EVEN THOUGH I LIKE BALOR(HE DID NEED A WIN AT PPV FOR 2018 BY THE WAY) I BELIEVE THAT DREW MCINTYRE IS THE MAN HE HAD THIS ENTIRE MATCH AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE VICTOR WITH A CLAYMORE KICK. 6. RANDY ORTON LOSING TO REY MYSTERIO IN A CHAIRS MATCH WAS ANOTHER SHOCKER MUCH LIKE DREW AND FINN'S MATCH SINCE I KNEW ORTON WAS GONNA PUNISH REY IN THAT HE DID BUT MYSTERIO GOT A HURRICANA ROLLUP AND WON JUST LIKE CROWN JEWEL- THE MATCH NEEDED TO HAVE LASTED THREE TO FOUR MINUTES MORE. 7. RONDA ROUSEY RETAINING HER RAW WOMAN'S CHAMPIONSHIP IN A LONG ANTICIPATED REMATCH FROM MITB 2018 THAT ATTEMPTED TO EXCEL OVER THE INITIAL ENCOUNTER BUT IT DID NOT I STILL FAVOR THAT FIGHT AS RONDA'S BEST SINGLES MATCH SO FAR HOWEVER I WAS DISSATISFIED WITH THE OUTCOME BEING THAT I WANTED NIA TO WIN GIVING A CHANCE FOR SO MANY SELECT MATCHES WITH OTHERS AND NOT KAYFABE TELLING WITH RR STAYING UNDEFEATED THE MATCH ALSO WAS A BIT SHORT(NEEDED 3 MORE MINUTES) AS RONDA WINS WITH THE ARM-BREAKER. 8. THE NEW DANIEL BRYAN WINS OVER AJ STYLES WAS A FANTASTIC ENCOUNTER AN A SLICK ENDING WITH A REVERSE ROLLUP IN 24 MINUTES- BEST MATCH OF THE EVENT 9. SETH ROLLINS RELINQUISHES HIS IC BELT TO DEAN AMBROSE AFTER HE GOT 2 EMOTIONAL IN THEIR MATCH AN SUFFERED A DIRTY DEEDS DDT- GOOD MATCH EVEN THOUGH THE CROWD WAS NOT INTO IT. 10. ASUKA FINALLY WINS THE SMACKDOWN WOMAN'S CHAMPIONSHIP IN A VERY NEEDED VICTORY AS SHE ENDS THE YEAR NOT SO STRONG AS SHE STARTED 2018 BUT AT LEAST A TITLE. I EXPECTED A LOT MORE WITH THIS MATCH THOUGH AS ASUKA REALLY DID NOTHING TO EYE DROPPING AND CHARLOTTE AND BECKY BOTH DID REPEATS OF THEIR EVOLUTION BRAWL. BECKY LEGDROPPED CHARLOTTE THROUGH ANNOUNCE TABLE JUST LIKE EVOLUTION AND CHARLOTTE DID A SENTON TO BECKY THROUGH A WOODEN TABLE. SO I WAS DISCONTENT WITH THIS MATCH AS I SEE THEY WERE LAZY AND PROBABLY INJURY INTIMATED BUT WHY HAVE THE TLC MATCH THAT IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. REGARDLESS OF IT OR NOT TLC 2018 WAS A MARVELOUS EVENT THAT I APPRECIATED BUT HAD IT'S NOT SO GOOD MOMENTS LIKE WWE THESE DAYS. BUT THIS PPV DEFEATS A LOT OF THEM OF 2018 ONLY ROYAL RUMBLE FOR SURE AND MAYBE WRESTLEMANIA MONEY IN THE BANK HELL IN A CELL 2018 ARE BETTER. IT DEFINITELY BEATS SURVIVOR SERIES AND SUMMERSLAM OF THIS YEAR BUT HOPEFULLY IMPROVES WELL IN 2019 WITH PPV EVENTS!!

This is what passes for a WWE PPV these days?

[frothymocha · 4/10 · 29 December 2018]

Just boring. It seems that in its efforts to modernise the product, WWE has stripped away everything that made it entertaining in the first place; namely the grit and controversy that made it exciting to watch in the past. The characters now are just dull, and the storylines are generic championship glory rivalries. This version is so toned down and lifeless, the chairs used in the matches might as well be made of foam.
