WWE News: Big Matches Added To WWE TLC Match Card

WWE TLC is shaping up to be a huge match card despite an average buildup. Last night’s edition of WWE Raw updated this to a big extent to hype up the show, even more. They altered one of the already announced matches on the show adding a special stipulation to it. Furthermore, a new matchup is now official from the Cruiserweight division for WWE TLC.

Becky Lynch still not cleared for TLC

Speaking of the new matchup first, the Cruiserweight Championship will be on the line on December 16th. Buddy Murphey will defend it against the former champion, Cedric Alexander. There’s no added stipulation for this matchup at WWE TLC. Considering these two’s match history, we should witness another slobber-knocker at the PPV event.

Braun Strowman out of TLC

Here is the official announcement from WWE.com,

“At WWE TLC, Cedric Alexander will finally have the opportunity to reclaim the WWE Cruiserweight Championship when he gets his rematch against Buddy Murphy.”

Buddy Murphey defeated Cedric Alexander in a solid match at Melbourne, Australia to win the Cruiserweight Championship. Alexander was demanding his rematch for a long time. After defeating Lio Rush and Tony Nese in consecutive bouts, he was able to convince 205 Live GM, Drake Maverick to make this match official at WWE TLC.

Apart from this, a matchup from WWE Raw received a big capacity at the WWE TLC show. Elias vs. Bobby Lashley already had a slot in the match card. This got changed into a Ladder Match after last night. Elias attacked Lio Rush with his guitar last week. He received the favor back from Bobby Lashley, this week who did the same to Elias.

This prompted the WWE creative team to use the Guitar as a significant weapon in this match. Here’s the update from WWE.com,

“Now, the strumming Superstar will be out to sing a melody of pure retribution for the attack in a Ladder Match and to close the year right with his first pay-per-view win of 2018. In this Ladder Match, a guitar will be hanging high above the ring. The first person to reach it will be able to use it as a weapon.”

Gimmick matches are always a special attraction for WWE TLC PPV. A Ladders Match with the Guitar hanging on the balance will be indeed something that we have never seen before. However, Elias will not have the advantage as it’d be a No Disqualification affair. Lio Rush will play a pivotal role to give the upper-hand to the Almighty Bobby Lashley.
