I mean when Ellsworth came out initially. Styles was at the top of the ladder with Ambrose out cold outside the ring. Styles would have won then if not for Ellsworth, which is why it makes no sense for him to have came out to begin with if this 'I can beat Styles' is he angle they are taking.
Everything makes no sense with this it would have been better if he cost Ambrose the match by accident.


On SD now Ambrose is just going to beat the hell out of Ellsworth then they will have a mini feud before Ellsworth is moved down the card and released within 6 months.

I had to laugh at the commentary "was he confused?"

Overall I wouldn't say it was a bad PPV most of the matches were at least good and I agreed with most of the winners.

But now the problem is neither Miz or Styles have a credible challenger for their titles suppose for Miz they could do a heel vs heel feud with Corban but as I said I looked at the entire SD roster and there isn't one face built up enough and no heels either really.

The roster is so thin on big talent. For reasons known only to Vince, he has made Orton/Wyatt a tag team, yet if booked right they both should be challengers to the main title.

So if you take Ambrose and Ziggler away as they have had so many chances now for the belt, there is no big names left.

I'm glad Alexa Bliss is the new Smackdown Women's Champion.

Not just big names they don't even have mid card names most of them are pretty much jobbers.

If the rumours are true they are going to have to bring in Undertaker just to give AJ a credible challenger and even then what is AJ going to do for the next month until that feud starts.

More names have to be built up

Just finished watching TLC & i thought it was a pretty good ppv. The only dud match on the card was the Nikki /Carmella match. I'm not a Corbin fan but i did enjoy his match with Kalisto.

I think they'll do AJ vs Undertaker for the title next. Kalisto vs Miz would have made sense but they're obviously dead set on pushing Corbin.

Just watching the replay of the main event now

Combination of falling asleep and the Xbox connection dropping

Although I do know the ending of the main event as I woke up, reconnected the connection after several attempts and caught the back end of Talking Smack

Good - Miz v Ziggler, Becky v Alexa, kickoff match, main event

Average - Mrs Cena v Carmella, Corbin v Kalisto

Bad - The crowd as they barely piped up until the main event

Didn't think they would go with Alexa beating Becky, however I don't think Alexa will have the belt for long as I do think Becky will get it back sooner rather than later

It was either going to be Ambrose or Ellsworth turning, and am pleased they went with the slightly less predictable route with Ellsworth going to the dark side

Really enjoyed the IC ladder match, if there was an award for Most Improved Superstar I think Miz would be right up there as a top contender

Surprised nobody mentioned the heels have all the belts on Smackdown now

Overall, I would say 7.5 out of 10 for TLC and now the short road starts to Roadblock in under two weeks

Becky never really had a chance with the belt, they did a angle so she didnt defend on her first PPV as champion, then had her win with Bliss on the ropes.

AJ Styles vs Nakamura should be headlining a Wrestlemania.

Just been watching Wrestle Kingdom and their match was awesome.

I hope not, as an Alexa fan I'm hoping she gets a long Title reign and they don't play hot potato like they've done on Raw with their Women's title.

I like Alexa and I don't mind her being champ. But Becky has been made to look weak as piss during this whole rivalry. Booking at it's absolute worst, we have the babyface getting the shit kicked out of her pretty much every single week, and then she loses the title at the first time of asking? Like.....wow.

Barring a game of hot potato like what we're seeing with Charlotte/Sasha, Becky is going to struggle to recover from this. Booking have well and truly assassinated her.

Why are you so surprised. He's big in an era of strict drug testing and 5'11 guys. Same reason Braun Strowman is getting a big push and Big Cass is popular with Vince.


The TLC match last night was superb. Even if it had a predictable and vintage wrestling (i.e nonsensical) heel turn. I was slightly surprised Styles didn't win clean only to get attacked by The Undertaker, due to it being in Texas. Speaking of big physiques, Dean Ambrose has jacked up in recent months.

Being reported that Nixon Newell has been offered a WWE contract subject to medical and visa.

Good signing as she could be a huge babyface for the company.

Thought TLC was pretty decent last night some of the matches on the card were pretty watchable.
