Episode 57 - NXT and TLC from the WWE - a podcast by Brothers of Discussion - A Wre

Its that time of the month again! The Brothers of Discussion give you their thoughts and predictions for WWE TLC (Tables, Ladders and Chairs) coming up, this Sunday! They also tackle the long and lengthy Wednesday of Wrestling: NXT and NXT UK.

We also announce the winner of the Pro Wrestling Tees Giveaway!

Show Notes

NXT
Heavy Machinery tear apart the Undisputed Era
It definitely feels like the beginning of a title push
EC3 and Bobby Fish give us a taste of what could be a fun rivalry, mostly proving that the parts are as good as the whole
Ricochet vs Tyler Breeze
Go watch it if you have the chance. Not match of the year, but it was fun seeing the crowd’s response to Tyler coming back. (This is Pretty chants and Please Don’t Go)
“This is gorgeous”
An earned hero’s welcome

Mia Yim into the Fatal Four-Way

The Mighty vs Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan

The old 1-2, Danny Burch + Oney Lorcan have a hell of a match with The Mighty Nick Miller Thorn, STIFF as hell! The slaps at the end to the face, and then the teammates slapping each other

NXT UK HIGHLIGHTS

Dave Mastiff v Eddie Dennis put on a show
Trent Seven v Joe Coffey with a white hot crowd, we finally get the coronation of the stable, Gallus “bold, daring, reckless”
Rhea Ripley first opponent...Isla Dawn...yikes, here’s a squash!

TLC Match Card - 12 Matches
Mixed Match Challenge Final: R-Truth & Carmella vs Jinder Mahal & Alicia Fox
Meh...hopefully, Truth and Carmella pull this one off.

Cruiserweight Champion Buddy Murphy vs Cedric Alexander
Will be another fantastic ad for 205 Live. Cedric might be ready to take the title.

Tables Match: Natalya vs Ruby Riott
I want Ruby to win because I really don’t want to have to watch Natalya drag her dad up the entrance ramp.

SmackDown Tag Team Champions Sheamus and Cesaro vs The Usos vs The New Day
Triple Threats always seem to offer a dozen ways for competitors to all leave the match without losing anything. It’ll be a good chance for the titles to change hands. Heading into WrestleMania season, the New Day always seems like a top candidate.

Ladder: Bobby Lashley vs Elias
This will be perfect for Lashley to get the win, Elias is Teflon, and Lio Rush will get to be a sneaky douche.

Chairs: Randy Orton vs Rey Mysterio
I really don’t care who wins this one. I feel like Randy should dominate, but he won’t. Rey...like always, will compete.

Drew McIntyre vs Finn Balor
I’m getting tired of typing but after this long build...Drew should be due for a Rumble victory or a shot at the number one contender spot, meaning Finn is in more need of a win. But, if Monday is going to have a number one contender’s match, then Drew will win and then he’ll beat Braun Strowman.

Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey vs Nia Jax
Its definitely not time for Rousey to lose and I think Nia is going to tumble down the ladder after this feud is complete.

WWE Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose
If Dean was supposed to win clean, he wouldn’t be scared to go face to face with Seth on RAW. He’ll cheat...and win...and give Seth a chance at the Universal Championship.

WWE Champion Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles
Daniel is going to give us great things for the next couple of months. He won’t do it without the WWE Championship. AJ will find something else to keep his interest and we’ll all be happy to see him return to the Royal Rumble as an entrant.

TLC Match: Braun Strowman vs Baron Corbin

TLC: SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka
Should be the main event of the night. If it isn’t...wtf…
Either way, the push feels like it's for Asuka, but I can’t imagine Becky Lynch losing her title so soon. This feels like it has to go to WrestleMania, but there are issues with finding a way for Becky and Rousey to meet each other, head-to-head.

Maybe Asuka wins, Becky gets entered into the Rumble and wins it all.
