Even without the any build...Balor vs. Styles will be great...

The TLC match itself...I honestly still don't care. I predict
a complete train wreck of a match...and not in a good way.

Although with "The Guy I can't mention by Name or the
WWE will win...somehow" out...hopefully Strowman will
just go berserk and crush everyone in the match...including
his own team mates.

I just want to state I never wanted Angle to wrestle again
and I stand by that statement.

Personally I hope everyone that is sick is better as soon as
possible and I hope no one is injured in this 5 vs. 3 possible
disaster.

Also I just want to state that a Lesnar vs. *Insert Name Here*
match for the Universal title would have really helped make
this show look better on paper.

is there any kind of logic behind Angle's inclusion and Styles vs Balor? I have not been watching recently so is this just panic mode from WWE?

Well, they do say that desperate times call for desperate measures, right?

You are damn right there is no logic whatsoever in having Kurt Angle replacing the ill Roman Reigns in this match, other then his "name". The Shield reunion was the money match and/or the selling point in regards to this particular PPV so being that they could not deliver due to the unfortunate latest development, they figured they needed a big time name to fill in that void and, well, who better then Kurt Angle?

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm obviously very excited to see Kurt wrestle again for WWE after all these years but at the same time I'm quite dissapointed because I feel this is a very big storyline (Kurt's in-ring return, that is) completely wasted in the heat of the moment. As Grevious pointed out above, why not give Brock a call, give him the extra payday and have him wrestle a one off against anyone, just to fill in some of the blanks; after all, he is the current holder of the most important belt on the show, is he not? I understand Lesnar is a "special" case but under the circumstances, I'm pretty sure they could have easily reached some type of agreement, not to mention the extra treat for all us fans.

I also find very funny that WWE were very hesitant in clearing Kurt Angle to wrestle, yet they now bring him back in a tables, ladders and chairs match? I mean, I'm sure he won't be taking any chair shots or other crazy bumps but if you're looking to be cautious with the guy (which is absolutely fine), I'm not sure this particular gimmick match helps...

As for AJ vs. Finn, this is definetely a major upgrade but, once more, another potentially huge storyline wasted. I must say though, I do wonder who they will side with in regards to AJ vs. Finn...

P.S.: May I ask why Elias doesn't have a place in this card, or even Anderson and Gallows?

Does anyone else think Jason Jordan should have taken the spot in the TLC match
and not Kurt Angle?

Because the WWE doesn't believe in consistent booking...

This pay per view is a complete mess...and the sooner its over
and everyone recovers from their illness the better.

Breaking news: Kurt Angle will return to action and The Demon gets a new opponent at WWE TLC

yo this is crazy! Styles is also set to replace Bray for the PPV as well. Apparently there's this illness or virus that has been spreading through the roster and.. damn.. I'm kinda lost for words, this is so random at first I thought it was a joke or a parody but this is the real thing.

I mean, this kinda fucks both feuds in the ass but talk about an unexpected show stealer in Styles vs Balor and the long awaited return to a WWE ring for Kurt Angle AND ALL OF THIS BEING ANNOUNCED OVER TWITTER 2 DAYS BEFORE THE PPV :henry3:
This will truly be epic

when it comes down to replacing a guy that has main evented your last 3 Manias, you'd either have to top it or choose a name that has equal star power and I think they nailed it with Kurt.


that's also in the original post, just didn't wanna make the title too long lol
At least we enjoy Kurt angle in action

I dislike Roman as much as the next guy who dislikes Roman but I find this kinda detestable:

Well looks like I'm the next guy, so you must actually not dislike Roman whatsoever :p

I mean, I honestly can't judge this, since I say almost equally fucked up things on a somewhat regular basis. As long as he recovers fine though, I say no harm in this though. They're gonna feel like shit if something actually bad happens to him though

Yeah, I guess only about 1 in 10,000 actually die but adult males could also go infertile if they get it. But yeah, the more I read about it, the les serious is seemed to be. I was under the impression it was deadlier than that in adult men.

Man, I had no interest in watching TLC, but now that we're getting Bálor vs AJ Styles and with Kurt Angle added to the mix, I am now looking forward to the PPV!
