As of writing this, there are 12 matches that have been officially confirmed for the TLC PPV. There have been no matches confirmed for the kickoff show just yet.
I think that there are two matches that have the greatest chances of being moved to the kickoff show.
Buddy Murphy vs Cedric Alexander
I would say that the Cruiserweight Championship match is a prime candidate to move to the kickoff show. 205 Live matches will always be on the low end of the totem poll in WWE’s mind. It should be a really good match but I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the one that gets bumped to the kickoff.
Mixed Match Challenge Finals
The finals of the Mixed Match Challenge will be taking place at TLC. The match will be Fabulous Truth (R-Truth and Carmella) vs.
I could actually see this one getting moved to the kickoff show. To me, the Mixed Match Challenge has felt unimportant due to all of the changes. As a result, WWE might just use it as a throwaway on the kickoff, instead of taking up time on the main card.
I am leaning towards the Mixed Match Challenge finals being moved to the kickoff.
