WWE TLC 2015: Match Rankings

WWE.com

Now that WWE TLC is in the books, let’s do some match rankings! Who got the crowds out of their seats and who put them to sleep?

So if you went only by how the card looked on paper, and the build-up, WWE TLC was not exactly a high priority for your Sunday night. Although, if you persevered through those negatives and tuned in anyways, you were treated to one heck of night of pro wrestling. Were there some duds along the way? Sure, there always is, but some of the PPV’s highest highs were absolutely unbelievable, and made the entire night worth watching.

The Boston crowd stayed alive for most of the night, which was a nice bonus to the action in the ring. There were times when they fell asleep, and it was deserved (Rusev vs. Ryback) and other times when they needed to wake up, like in Del Rio vs. Swagger and even the early moments of the main event. Overall, this PPV will go down as one of the better WWE PPVs in 2015, and that’s quite a feat, considering it’s a B-PPV, in December, with minimal attention to the stories. Fair to say, there’s some momentum going into tonight’s Raw, and hopefully that will continue as we edge closer towards their next PPV, the Royal Rumble.

On the day of WWE TLC, Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks was announced as the Pre-Show match, although it won’t be included in the rankings, it would have landed somewhere in the middle. They were given almost twelve minutes to work, which was great, although nothing too spectacular came out of it, aside from Michael Cole not knowing what any of Sasha or Becky’s finishers looked like. “The Boss” was able to lock up the win in front of her home crowd, which I’m sure was a nice moment in her career.

That was one the Pre-Show though, let’s get right to the actual PPV matches, and see how they stacked up!
