We’ve finally made it to WWE TLC 2018! Which one of WWE’s many grudge matches will be sure to deliver the most brutal action at WWE’s most vicious pay-per-view of the year?

Well, let me tell you… I could meet my minimum word count just going down the card of tonight’s event. That’s right, WWE TLC has a whopping twelve announced matches in store for us tonight, and I’m willing to bet that at least one of them will be less that five minutes. Maybe two.

The biggest matches scheduled for tonight undoubtedly have to be both the Intercontinental Championship match between champion Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose

who is being played by Tom Hardy

. Rollins and Ambrose have been at each others throats for weeks ever since Ambrose turned on Rollins after their Raw Tag Team Championship win. There’s weeks, and quite frankly years of bad blood in this feud, and this match has the potential to be one of the best of the night.

The other is the SmackDown Women’s Championship match between champion Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Asuka, who’ll take part in a triple-threat TLC match, a first in WWE. If you’ve watched anything, any part of WWE programming in the last 6 months, it had to have been a Becky Lynch match. Lynch’s history with Flair, combined, with the crowd’s unbridled satisfaction with the fact that Asuka is finally in the championship picture, has to make this one of the most anticipated matches of the night.

*ahem*… and now, for the rest of the card. We shall see:

  • Daniel Bryan vs. AJ Styles for the WWE Championship
  • Baron Corbin vs. Braun Strowman, maybe, in a TLC Match
  • Drew McIntyre vs. Finn Balor, maybe
  • Elias vs. Bobby Lashley in a Ladder Match
  • Ronda Rousey vs. Nia Jax
  • Ruby Riott vs. Natalya in a Tables Match
  • The Bar vs. The Usos vs, The New Day for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships
  • Buddy Murphy vs. Cedric Alexander for the Cruiserweight Championship
  • Rey Mysterio vs. Randy Orton in a Chair Match (thank GOD)
  • The finale of The Mixed Match Challenge featuring Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox vs. Carmella and R-Truth.

Did I get them all?

That’s it, twelve matches, twelve matches in store for us all tonight. Tune in to all the action tonight at 7PM/6PM only on the WWE Network, and be sure to follow along with us here for live updates, results, review, and grades for all of tonight’s contest.
