Before I kick-off this review, let me be brutally honest and admit firsthand that I was wrong about this PPV. TLC turned out to be one heck of a show. It was entertaining from start to finish and served as a great way to spend a Sunday night during the holiday season. It was intense, the crowd was loud and at the edge of their seats the whole time, and it so happened that this year-end event changed the landscape of the company almost completely! Ladies and gents, TLC is hereby one of the best shows of the year, and because it didn’t have major selling points like John Cena, The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, or even The Rock, I’d say WWE needs a huge pat on the back for delivering such a great PPV consisting mostly of the superstars who will form the rosters of the WWE for years to come.  More

So here we are, at the final WWE PPV of 2011. It kinda sucks when time flies so fast, but then again it means we’re inching closer and closer to WrestleMania 28. Come January, we’ll be kicking-off the road to the Rumble, probably the most anticipated WWE event next to ‘Mania itself. But first, we’ll have to go through this chaos-promising PPV, known only as TLC. Will Kane bring Hellfire & Brimstone to the show? Will Punk lose the title? And *gasp!!*…what if John Cena isn’t on this PPV at all? Will the WWE crumble under the non-presence of everyone’s favorite poster-boy? More

Tables, Ladders, Chairs …and Sledgehammers. It’s All Legal!
Let me cut straight to the point. I’m not looking forward to this PPV. There’s nothing on that matchcard that makes me say “Hey, that’s worth 3-hours of my time AND some of my money!”. Except CM Punk. That guy is absolute gold and the only real opponent he has in WWE right now is WWE itself, and how they’ve successfully managed to slow down even his momentum. So what made me buy this PPV? One word. Kane! More

Tables, Ladders, Chairs…Oh,my!
I can’t help but think of Mick Foley everytime I hear the words “TLC“. It was, after all, his “invention” back when he was the General Manager. In fact, back then, the General Manager didn’t have to ‘tweet’ announcements via a computer, or give Michael Cole more screentime than any of the Raw superstars week after week. Stories of Mick Foley aside, the card for this year’s TLC seems pretty stacked. You have the WWE, World Heavyweight, and the Intercontinental Championship on the line, as well as the No.1 Contender’s spot for the WWE Championship up for grabs. You also have the first-ever Divas Tables Match. That’s right, it’s okay for kids to watch women violently crashing through tables, but paramedics are sent out in the middle of a match at the first sight of blood seeping out someone’s nose. Go figure. More

The Trifecta Of Chaos.
The last of WWE’s new conceptual PPVs for the year is Tables, Ladders, & Chairs (TLC), an event that promises one Tables Match, one Ladder Match, one Chair Match (seriously…we have such a thing as a Chair Match now?) and of course a combination of the three in a TLC match. While the PPV looks somewhat interesting, I think WWE should slow down on their events towards the end of the year and give their superstars a break. That’ll give the Royal Rumble an even bigger boost. But anyway, since this is definitely happening, I’m looking forward to the DX / Jeri-show battle. I was almost certain that Jeri-show would drop the championship belts but now I’m not so sure. Batista / Undertaker looks interesting although I’m sure ‘Taker will hold on to the title. A lot of people think Sheamus is going to win. I don’t think so, and I don’t think he deserves the championship so soon. He’s a pretty awesome superstar, yes, but he needs some more climbing to do before he enjoys that belt around his waist. TLC isn’t too far away so get to downloadin’!
