1) This Was Only The First Pay-Per-View (Singles) Match For Emma
Emma revealed on the TLC kickoff show that this was the first Pay-Per-View singles match of her career. This surprised the heck out of me as I figured that she had at least one in her career.
I wasn’t the only one who was surprised by this:
This is Emma’s FIRST PPV match?! WTF. This is unbelievable and unacceptable! More representation of women on the PPVs! #WWE #WWETLC

2) Alicia Fox Tried To Pin Sasha Banks Outside Of The Ring
TLC featured a kickoff show match between Alicia Fox and Sasha Banks. This came after Alicia attacked Sasha and a referee backstage on RAW last week. The match was won by Sasha after making Alicia tap out with the ‘Bank Statement’.
During the match, Alicia hit a backbreaker on the outside of the ring. It must have been instinct, because she tried to pin Sasha right away in a humorous moment:
