Charlotte is expected to be Asuka’s partner in her match against WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler at tonight’s WWE
TLC, according to F4WOnline.
The report noted Charlotte is currently in St. Petersburg, Florida ? current location of the ThunderDome ? right now.
Asuka’s original partner, Lana, was taking out by Jax and Baszler, leaving Asuka without a tag partner for tonight’s title match. This had been planned for weeks, leading to the return of Charlotte.
Charlotte has been out of the ring since June 22, where Jax storyline broke Charlotte’s collarbone in a backstage attack. Charlotte actually took time off for cosmetic surgery to fix a breast implant leak issue, along with being involved with some acting gigs.
Mandy Rose thrilled her 2.7 million Instagram followers with a clip of herself running out and jumping into the WWE
Monday Night Raw ring. In the footage, she literally beat other wrestlers with a stick, and she looked smoking-hot while doing it.
In the video that she originally posted on TikTok, Mandy wore an ebony black bra top that showcased her muscular arms, ample cleavage, and toned tummy. She paired it with matching high-waisted leggings that hugged her fit, curvy backside and legs. The wrestler wore muted black combat boots to complete her costume for the evening. In one hand, Mandy carried a long tan rod, which she used as a weapon. She wore her shoulder-length blond locks straight, and they bounced as she ran up to the ring and jumped inside.
– Above is a new promo for tomorrow’s WWE NXT episode on the USA Network.
WWE has announced the following for tomorrow night’s show: Karrion Kross makes his in-ring return, Pete Dunne vs. Kyle O’Reilly with the winner facing NXT Champion Finn Balor at New Year’s Evil, Toni Storm vs. Rhea Ripley in a Grudge Match, plus tag team action with Kushida and Leon Ruff vs. Austin Theory and NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano.
– WWE has a new poll asking fans who RAW Women’s Champion Asuka will go with to replace Lana at Sunday’s WWE TLC pay-per-view for the title match against WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. As of this writing, 36% voted for Mandy Rose while 13% voted for Dana Brooke, and 51% voted for Other.
The Big Takeaway
Miz and Morrison pinned Keith Lee, Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt played hide-and-seek, and Lana pinned Nia Jax. Lana was injured by Jax and Shayna Baszler so Asuka will need a new partner on Sunday.
AJ Styles laid out Drew McIntyre to close another bad Raw show.
Show Recap
The announcers ran down tonight’s card, including an “ascension ceremony” with Drew McIntyre and AJ Styles where the WWE title belt will be suspended above the ring.
The Nightmare Before TLC
Miz was in the ring to read the story of “The Nightmare Before TLC.” He had a picture book with Styles on the cover. It was apparently written by Styles as well. The lights were off and the spotlight was on Miz. He snapped his fingers and a spotlight revealed Styles was standing in the ring the entire time.
Jaxson Ryker Makes WWE RAW Debut
Jaxson Ryker made his WWE RAW debut during tonight’s episode on the USA Network.
We noted last week how Ryker returned to WWE TV during a segment with Elias on WWE Main Event. That segment saw Elias talk about surviving the Symphony of Destruction loss to Jeff Hardy, and becoming extraordinary, then having visions about Ryker. The WWE Main Event segment was interrupted by WWE 24/7 Champion R-Truth and his group of contenders, and ended with Ryker dropping Akira Tozawa with a clothesline. Tonight’s RAW segment was almost a mirror of last week’s Main Event segment.
