WWE TLC 2019: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best
Another PPV drives itself off a cliff.
In the grand tradition of mid-December WWE PPVs, this year's TLC event arrived with little sense of urgency or importance, but at least on paper the card seemed solid enough to deliver a decent night of wrestling.
And that certainly appeared to be in the making for the show's first three matches...and then the rest happened.
It's tough to recall a WWE PPV in recent memory that so aggressively derailed itself after a promising start, delivering up dud after disappointing dud once the first hour was done with.
If the company's shows this year have generally proven fairly consistent, this was a sloppy and disappointing way to end 2019.
Half the matches were at least decent, while the other half were mediocre-to-terrible. If you tuned out after Aleister Black vs. Buddy Murphy, little of value was lost.
