Smark Out Moment

Welcome to the WWE TLC 2018 pay-per-view live results coverage page! Tables, Ladders and Chairs 2018 is presented by Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live and coming to you from the SAP Center in San Jose, California on December 16, 2018.

This post will be updated continuously to reflect the ongoing coverage of WWE TLC 2018 results starting once the pre-show kicks off. Stay tuned!

Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live present WWE Tables, Ladders and Chairs 2018 Results

Kickoff time. They're still advertising all 12 matches. I can't imagine these all go down, unless some of them are super fast squashes.

Cruiserweight Championship Match: Buddy Murphy (c) vs. Cedric Alexander

RESULT: Buddy Murphy retains the title by pinfall
THOUGHTS: Good, but it wasn't as good as what they've done in the past. I think they phoned it in a bit compared to how great I know they are.

Ladder Match: Elias vs. Bobby Lashley

RESULT: Elias wins by retrieving the guitar even though they had said before that this was a pinfall/submission match, but okay, just change the rules, whatever. Lashley is the one who uses the guitar anyway because of Lio Rush's involvement after the match.
THOUGHTS: These things are stupid.

That's the pre-show. The rest of this is the main card.

Mixed Match Challenge Tournament Finals: MahAlicia (Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox) vs. Fabulous Truth (R-Truth and Carmella)

RESULT: R-Truth and Carmella win by submission. Truth says after the match that he already submitted for their vacation and it's going to be at WWE Headquarters in Stamford.
THOUGHTS: Well, I got that one wrong. I thought they wouldn't want to have the dance break thing be at the end of the Royal Rumble.

SmackDown Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match: The Bar (c) vs. The Usos vs. The New Day

RESULT: The Bar retain the titles by pinfall
THOUGHTS: Good match, but I'm honestly not wowed. However, I'll admit that that might just be my mood right now as I'm feeling underwhelmed, stressed and bored.

TLC Match: Baron Corbin vs. Braun Strowman

RESULT: Braun Strowman wins by pinfall after interference from Apollo Crews, Bobby Roode, Chad Gable, Finn Balor, Kurt Angle and referee Heath Slater.
THOUGHTS: WWE actually did something that was logical. I'm stunned.

Tables Match: Natalya vs. Ruby Riott

RESULT: Natalya wins by, you know, putting her opponent through a table, cause that's the point.
THOUGHTS: This was fun even if the best part of the whole thing was at the beginning with Liv Morgan being put through a table. This could've been lost in the shuffle even on a Raw-only event when the pay-per-views weren't co-branded, and somehow, it did its job here on a stacked card. Kudos.

Finn Balor vs. Drew McIntyre

RESULT: Finn Balor wins by pinfall after help from Dolph Ziggler
THOUGHTS: There should have been two disqualifications here, but okay. At least this loss paints McIntyre in a light that he didn't really "lose-lose" if you know what I mean.

Chairs Match: Randy Orton vs. Rey Mysterio

RESULT: Rey Mysterio wins by pinfall
THOUGHTS: They had a better match with this gimmick than I thought they would. That sled move was the best part.

Raw Women's Championship Match: Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Nia Jax

RESULT: Ronda Rousey retains the title by submission
THOUGHTS: Much better match than I was expecting. I love being able to type that.

WWE Championship Match: Daniel Bryan (c) vs. AJ Styles

RESULT: Daniel Bryan retains the title by pinfall
THOUGHTS: Rock solid. Very good match.

Intercontinental Championship Match: Seth Rollins (c) vs. Dean Ambrose

RESULT: Dean Ambrose wins the title by pinfall
THOUGHTS: Underwhelming.

SmackDown Women's Championship TLC Match: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Asuka

RESULT: Asuka wins the title.
THOUGHTS: Well, there you go. You're getting a Triple Threat at WrestleMania after both Flair and Lynch win the Royal Rumble, which proves me right in how I kept saying WWE WILL NOT have Rousey vs. Lynch without Flair involved.
