The go-home show for TLC featured a beefy card, but it was anything but spectacular. Again, no Brock Lesnar and Finn Balor as a pumpkin demon. So what is there to be excited about? Kane? Try again.
Matches:
Jason Jordan, Apollo Crews and Titus O’Neil vs. Elias Sampson, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson: A quick one that saw Crews get the win with his Powerbomb variation on Anderson.
Cedric Alexander w/Rich Swann vs. Jack Gallagher w/Brian Kendrick: Swann took care of Kendrick and Alexander won with the Lumbar Jack.
Alicia Fox vs. Sasha Banks: Fox tried, but Banks won with the Bank Statement.
WWE RAW Tag Team Champions Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins vs. Cesaro and Sheamus: Lots of back and forth, but Ambrose got the win on Cesaro with the Dirty Deeds.
Emma and WWE RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs. Mickie James and Bayley: James won with the Mick Kick, getting the pinfall on Bliss.
Steel Cage Match: Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman: Reigns couldn’t escape thanks to Sheamus and Cesaro, but Strowman also kicked out of three Superman Punches. To make things worse for Reigns, Kane returned and hit a pair of Chokeslams on the Big Dog. Strowman then hit two Running Powerslams before a Kane Tombstone Piledriver. All of that put Reigns away and made it a five-on-three match at TLC.
