4) Asuka Won, But Emma Looked Good In Defeat!
Asuka’s first match was against Emma. There was a lot of questions before the match if it would be a squash or if the match would get a lot of time.
The match ended up getting a decent amount of time with Asuka winning in the end. Asuka won the match but I thought Emma still had a great showing in defeat.
Great match, Emma looked great in defeat and Asuka is just amazing #WWETLC

Very good match between Asuka and Emma. Emma had her time to shine & it wasn’t a squash by any means. Great debut for Asuka!!! #WWETLC

5) The ‘Lumbar Check’ Is One Of The Best Finishing Moves In WWE
TLC featured a tag team match in the Cruiserweight division. Jack Gallagher and Brian Kendrick teamed up to face Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann.
The match was won by Cedric Alexander, who hit the ‘Lumbar Check’ on Brian Kendrick. Have to say, the ‘Lumbar Check’ is such an awesome move and one of my favorites in WWE today:
LUMBAR CHECK!!! @CedricAlexander & @GottaGetSwann WINS!! #WWETLC pic.twitter.com/BFKt9h2hje

6) Alexa Bliss Retained Her Title
Alexa Bliss defended her RAW Women’s Championship at TLC against Mickie James. After a solid match, Alexa was able to win the match and retain her title.
Mickie was interviewed after the match where she thanked the WWE Universe for supporting her, even in a loss. Who will be next for Alexa? We will have to wait and see.
An absolutely valiant effort by @MickieJames…but @AlexaBliss_WWE is STILL your #RAW #WomensChampion! #WWETLC pic.twitter.com/qUWHtFpYZi
