Date: 14th Dec, 2014
Location: Quicken Loans Arena, Cleveland, Ohio
Announcers: Jerry Lawler, Michael Cole and JBL

Kickoff Show:

Your host is Renee Young and she is joined by Booker T, Paul Heyman, and Alex Riley.

Paul is his usual self on the panel and he starts to show the tension with Renee.

Booker says that he is feeling great. The guys in the back have a lot of adrenaline and nervous energy. Booker talks about the carnage that will take place tonight. Booker says that he was in one TLC match in his WWE career. He says that is a match that can make or break your career. It can leave you a torn man. He says that if he was going to be in another TLC match, he would have retired earlier.

Renee asks Alex what match is grabbing his attention. Alex decides to talk about Booker’s comments about being in another TLC match. He says that shows how dangerous these matches can be.

Renee mentions the Tables Match with the added stipulation that John is no longer the Number One Contender if he loses.

Paul is asked about the stipulation. He points out that he is the advocate for Brock Lesnar. His client has a vested interest in this match. Neither man can be pinned or forced to submit. The man who wins is the person who puts their opponent through a table. If Cena wins, he is still the number one contender, but what condition will John be in? Who will be the number one contender if Seth Rollins wins? What if it is Seth Rollins? He is the man with the briefcase. What condition will Seth be in if he can win.

Renee mentions that we will have a tag team match. Kofi Kingston and Big E will face Goldust and Stardust.

We see the footage from the Tag Team Turmoil match from Raw two weeks ago.

Tom Phillips is by himself in the Social Media Lounge. Tom mentions that Dolph Ziggler will be live tweeting tonight. You can send him questions using #AskZiggler.

We are back and we take a look at the TLC Match between Dean Ambrose and Bray Wyatt with a video package.

Renee asks if crazy can outdo crazy.

Paul says that you have Dean Ambrose, a man who comes into the ring with reckless abandon. You have Bray Wyatt who is insane. Both men leave everything behind. He says that if you are not interested in this match, you are not paying attention.

Renee mentions that Dean debuted on pay per view in a TLC match.

Alex says that both men can go places that no one else can go. Alex says that this could be a beat down of biblical proportions.

Booker says that this is not about championships or money, it is about who can be the best.

Miz says that this is not a scam. He tells Naomi that he is insulted that she would question him. Naomi says that she will do this on her own. Miz says that he knows that he is talking to Naomi’s jealous and domineering husband, not her.

Naomi says that she is not falling for this.

Miz says that he is married and his wife is not jealous.

Miz says that the deal is open but only for tonight.

Naomi asks if the result of tonight’s match doesn’t matter.

Miz says that if he is champion, he guarantees that she will get a contract.

Naomi says that her focus is becoming the Divas champion and his priorities are out of order.

Miz says that if he wins, she wins because doors will open for her.

Renee asks how Miz’ ego has been affected by the Usos winning the tag team Slammy.

Alex says that Miz is a slimeball and he is getting under the Uso’s skin. You have to give him credit.

Renee asks if the Usos can stay focused tonight.

Booker says that the hardest thing to do is be married and walk the walk. Booker says that Jimmy has not been tested and we will see if his woman gets involved.

We are back and Renee mentions that tonight will feature the first Stairs Match with Erick Rowan facing Big Show.

Renee asks Booker about the Big Show.

Booker says that he is a big guy who knows how to throw his weight around. Normally you could test someone’s cardio, but the person whose right hand connects first will get the advantage.

Alex talks about what could happen if you use the stairs.

We see a tale of the tape for the stairs.

Booker says that whoever wins this match will still be in a lot of pain.

Paul says that he is concerned. Big Show is a trained athlete, but he knows nothing about Rowan. We find out these things about Rowan, but we don’t know much about him. How does Big Show prepare to fight this man who can pick up the stairs and smash them into the Big Show. Paul says that he is concerned about Rowan.

Luke Harper will defend the Intercontinental Title against Dolph Ziggler in a Ladder Match.

Renee mentions Dolph’s experience in ladder matches and she wonders how will Luke handle the pain.

Booker says that Luke knows every inch of the ring. Ziggler proved to him that Dolph will do whatever it takes to stay in the company. He is trying to get back to the top.

Alex says that Dolph will have the home field advantage.

Tom Phillips finally has someone in the Social Media Lounge with him and it is Dolph Ziggler.

We go through some of the questions asked of Dolph.

Dolph says that it was exciting to see Sting’s debut. He was looking for something to give him some sort of motivation being down and Sting was able to help him.

Dolph is asked if he looks to become WWE Champion. Dolph says that he always looks to be the WWE Champion. He will fight for the people every night. His focus right now is on the Intercontinental Title. He would love a shot at Brock Lesnar.

Dolph is asked how will he win tonight. Dolph says that he will need to use his speed while figuring out how to use the ladders to his advantage.

Now Ryback has the chance to pick something up and slam it into their back. Kane hurts people too. Can either of them do the damage to the other?

I'm happy Dolph won but he deserves much much more than an IC title.
