WWE TLC 2018: Matches, card, predictions, date, time in IST and where to watch in India

Intercontinental Championship: Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose

This is expected to be the biggest match of the show with the former Shield brothers going against each other. They will face off for the first time since Ambrose turned heel on Rollins after capturing the Raw tag team titles. 

Prediction: Dean will win. If Rollins is being positioned as the man to challenge Brock Lesnar then it makes sense to Ambrose to get the IC title.

SmackDown Women's Championship: Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka (TLC match)

Becky Lynch will defend her title against two women in this TLC match, with Flair being gifted the shot by SmackDown GM Paige and Asuka earning her way in via a battle royal win on SmackDown. Lynch will return to action after being injured before Survivor Series where Flair turned heel. The three women are expected to have one hell of a match at the event.

Prediction: Becky retains the title. She is having a great run and it should not end so early.

WWE Championship: Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles

AJ Styles will have his rematch for the WWE title against 'New' Daniel Bryan at WWE TLC.

Prediction: Daniel Bryan will retain. Bryan's recent work as a heel has been so strong that it makes no sense to take the title away from him.

Raw Women's Championship: Ronda Rousey vs Nia Jax

Nia Jax has earned the right to challenge Rousey for the Raw women's title at Evolution. This should have been a great rivalry but instead has been a forced narrative. Hopefully, it will be done for good at TLC. 

Prediction: Ronda Rousey retains the title. Why not?

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

This match could steal the show at TLC. Have we seen these three teams battle too many times? Yes. Do we want see them flying high in a TLC match again? Hell, yes.

Prediction: The Usos win the titles- just for a change.

Braun Strowman vs Baron Corbin

There were doubts over this match- Strowman is recovering from an elbow injury and has missed over a month of action. There are rumours that NXT's Lars Sullivan make enter the match as Corbin's corporate muscle to take out Strowman.

Prediction: Corbin to win and continue as Raw GM.

Rey Mysterio vs Randy Orton (Chairs Match)

Two veterans of WWE will face off in this match. There is no doubt this will see two extrems- the brutality of Orton and the high-flying stunts of Mysterio.

Prediction: Mysterio wins as payback for the torture he has got so far. (Image: WWE)

Finn Balor vs Drew McIntyre 

Drew McIntyre and Finn Balor have been feuding with each other. These two should provid a great match.

Prediction: Drew McIntyre wins - there is not much at stake here.

Cruiserweight Championship: Buddy Murphy (c) vs Cedric Alexander

The cruiserweights have been stealing the show at some of the recent PPV for WWE. Expect this to be the case again.

Prediction: Buddy Murphy retains and moves on to a new rival (like Mustafa Ali). (Image: WWE)

Elias vs Bobby Lashley (Ladder Match)

There should be some fun and games at this match with Lio Rush playing an important part.

Prediction: Elias wins. Who cares!
