TLC Match
January 16, 2006


This Monday night on RAW, for the first time ever, Edge will put his newly-won WWE Championship on the line in a TLC Match. His opponent will be 16-time World Champion Ric Flair. Is the Nature Boy primed for another reign on top? Or will the Rated R Superstar's experience in TLC Matches carry him over Flair? Watch RAW to find out.

The new World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle and Shawn Michaels have had some of the best matches in WWE history. They are considered two of the best all-around performers that the sports-entertainment industry has ever seen. They delivered an instant-classic at WrestleMania 21, and Angle walked away with the first victory in what would turn out to be an extended rivalry.

Their match at WrestleMania was an interpromotional one, but after Angle was drafted to RAW in the Draft Lottery, it was just a matter of time before they locked horns again. The rematch was at Vengeance, and while the match was another classic, the result was different as HBK picked up the big win.

Mr. McMahon then put a smile on every WWE fans’ faces when he announced a third match between the two for the big WWE Homecoming last October. To make things even more interesting, though, he made the rubber match a 30-Minute WWE Iron Man Match. The two battled to the point of exhaustion for 30 minutes, and in the end, they both scored two falls apiece, and the match was ruled a draw.

After HBK and Angle had a falling out during a tag team match on RAW, Mr. McMahon thought it would be the perfect time for HBK vs. Angle IV. And who could argue? Don’t miss RAW Monday night in what is sure to be another instant classic between these two amazing competitors.
And Kane, Chavo Guerrero and Shelton Benjamin all qualified for the Royal Rumble. It was also announced that Rob Van Dam would make his big return to the squared circle in the Royal Rumble Match. Who else will qualify for the Royal Rumble? Tune in to Monday Night RAW at 9/8 CT on the USA Network to find out.

I don't even have to watch the match to know the accurate rating B)

Flair?!

In a TLC match?

God help me. Anyone but Flair.

What the fuck is up with everyone using the term "rubber match" lately?

I'm going to like this match. :D No lie, seriously.

I'm going to hate the match, and it won't near 3 stars. Flair can barely move. He'll be gassed 5 minutes in, and they're calling it a TLC match, which means people will expect big bumps.

Flair can't even take a fucking suplex! Give me a break.

Because the UnCreative Team sucks.

The winner gets free condoms for life.

And lord knows both Edge and Flair are going to need them.

They'll need 100 each just to slip it in Lita once.

I'd be way too terrified of the first 99 breaking and leaving me with only one thin layer of protection keeping me from the poison and venom that broods within Lita.

She probably has evil anime tentacles living down there. :lol:

I wouldn't be surprised in the least. We should e-mail that question to Matt Hardy B)

That's against his policy. Matt only answers letters from fat porkers that squeal with delight when he comes to the ring.... don't even say the joke, except replace Matt with Kane and porkers with fat guy.

Oh, I thought it was Jeff Hardy who did that.

We could make the subject in the message something like "OMG~! U R SO HOTT!" I'm sure he would open that.

Then we can sign it with Plague's name. :D

:lol: That is the smartest thing I have ever heard anyone say about anything!

I asked that because Mike Tenay and Don West horribly over used it to describe the Rhyno-Jarrett rematch at the last TNA PPV. It drove me nuts. They used it, and didn't make a serious effort to explain what it meant

I can understand if this is a sport and it's Game 7, where it's a must-win. In wrestling it makes no sense. "OOH! this is a rubber match until they wrestle again in 2 weeks!"

Ew. Tentacle rape.

:urge to kill rising:

(throws a "Being Emo for Dummies" book at Plague)

The hell was that for?

You need to feel my pain... and I borrowed it from the Library. :P

The Library of LFV?
