Story goes that, having had one hell of a grueling 2019, Becky Lynch approached management and asked if she could have a quieter end to the year to allow her body to recover a bit. Their solution? Putting her in a tag team TLC match with, arguably, the two stiffest workers in the entire women's division. I cannot wait for this match, but then again I'm not Becky Lynch's spine.

Taking this one step further by putting the titles on her and Charlotte feels like an insane move, but with no obvious main-event narrative to take either of them into the Royal Rumble the old 'Best Of Friends, Worst Of Enemies' angle feels like something that writes itself. Defending the tag belts together one week, going to war over the Raw Women's Championship the next.

This is, however, a bad move for a number of reasons. If they go ahead with it then a) it denies us the long run for the Kabuki Warriors that we've all been enjoying and b) yet again hotshots the Women's Tag Team Championships just as they were starting to feel like they had some serious credibility. However this is WWE we're talking about, and after both Becky and Charlotte got beat at Survivor Series, it's highly probable they'll give them this to recover.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
