WWE Tables, Ladders and Chairs 2019 Spoilers

TLC Match: Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin

At least this isn't a dog collar match.

PREDICTION: Roman Reigns wins.


Bray Wyatt (c) vs. The Miz

Frankly, I'm surprised they aren't making this a Triple Threat with Daniel Bryan also involved. I guess they wanted to drag that out until Royal Rumble. I'm also surprised this isn't for the Universal Championship. That just seems like an unnecessary drop in quality for advertising this match that they don't frequently do. The only way around that is if The Miz beats Bray Wyatt in the sweater and that's why they don't want to put the belt on the line. But if Wyatt wins anyway, then why not have it be for the championship?

Very curious, and I can't help but feel that there isn't some grand idea in mind that they're doing this for, but that it's just a weird quirk and writing mistake that people like I will complain about the lack of logic for and the response will be "ugh, shut up and enjoy what I do even if it makes no sense. Stop complaining."

PREDICTION: Bray Wyatt wins.


SmackDown Tag Team Championship Match: The New Day (c) vs. The Revival

Two great tag teams. Two of the best in WWE right now. But I've seen this match enough times that without some kind of hook to it, I'm numb to the idea.

PREDICTION: The New Day retains.


Aleister Black vs. Buddy Murphy

You'd think Black, wanting someone to pick a fight with him, would have just fought Murphy when he knocked on his door, rather than waiting several weeks. #Logic. I'm a fan of both guys, though, and I think they could put on a solid match, but I don't think most people are going to feel like tuning in to watch it.

PREDICTION: Aleister Black wins.


Women's Tag Team Championship TLC Match: The Kabuki Warriors (c) vs. Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair

So this is happening, and since they bothered with the chair and the table, that means it's a TLC match. We're just waiting on the confirmation announcement.

Let's not mince words here. This is a stall. WWE had nobody in mind worth feuding with Becky Lynch over the Raw Women's Championship, so they slapped this together. Let's just hope the game plan isn't to just do Flair vs. Lynch at Mania again.

PREDICTION: The Kabuki Warriors retain.


Tables Match: Rusev vs. Bobby Lashley

If this storyline were personified, I would hope it would get injured.

PREDICTION: Bobby Lashley wins.

Raw Tag Team Championship Match: The Viking Raiders (c) vs. TBA

There is an open challenge. I guess WWE decided keeping a mystery is more interesting than announcing what the most likely option will be, which is The O.C. And in this case, they're right. The Viking Raiders against "who knows? Let your speculation run wild and just don't hate us when you're disappointed!" is more intriguing than just going with Anderson and Gallows and having nobody care.

If they decide to go with AOP, though, then that'll be interesting, as new champions will be crowned unless there is some sort of shenanigans ending built into the fabric of this match to allow Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens to brawl.

PREDICTION: The Viking Raiders retain.


WWE Championship Match

I would be very, very, VERY surprised if Brock Lesnar wrestled on this card.

PREDICTION: This title won't be defended.

SmackDown Women's Championship Match: Bayley (c) vs. ???

Lacey Evans is the only possible challenger that has been set up, but she's feuding even more with Sasha Banks, rather than directly with Bayley.

My guess is they want to drag this out. Maybe they're going with Evans vs. Sasha Banks and Bayley won't even defend the title. That way, they can stall and drag this out and have Banks take a loss to set up Evans as the No. 1 contender for Royal Rumble.

PREDICTION: Bayley retains, if she even wrestles.

Kevin Owens vs. Seth Rollins

It seems like they decided not to have this match happen at TLC and wrote an excuse for stalling by having Owens get attacked by Rollins and AOP.

PREDICTION: WWE holds off on this match to drag it out longer. Hard work is hard.

United States Championship Match: Rey Mysterio (c) vs. AJ Styles

This is the most logical course of action, as the only other alternative I could see them doing would be to lump Drew McIntyre and Randy Orton into the mix to save time.

Update: I guess Mysterio vs. Styles is happening on Raw, rather than here.

PREDICTION: Rey Mysterio retains the title.

Randy Orton vs. Drew McIntyre

Again, this is a singles match unless they want to put those two into the US title feud.

PREDICTION: Randy Orton wins.
