Rumor Mill: Title Changes Tonight at “TLC”

It’s no secret that the WWE product has been struggling. The WWE ratings have been dropping. WWE is actively trying to fix the problem by bringing potential major changes to Raw, bringing Smackdown to the USA Network and having fan surveys to understand what kind of product the WWE Universe wants.

However, “TLC” is the last PPV of 2015 and the last PPV before WWE moves onto the “Royal Rumble” and the “Road to Wrestlemania”. WWE’s time for experimenting with their product and making changes is coming to an end. They need to know what they are doing and tonight’s “TLC” event is the last chance to change the game up.

If WWE is going to change the product around, that could mean turning someone face or heel, but the easiest way to change the product up without doing anything drastic is title changes. It’s very likely there will be at least one major title change tonight.

What’s interesting is all the titles are in a unique place to change hands. Sheamus WWE Championship reign is the least likely to change hands because a “TLC” match is too unpredictable. It’s not that crazy for Reigns to become WWE champion tonight, but that would give him the payoff now instead of Wrestlemania. That seems unlikely.

However, Ambrose winning the Intercontinental Championship from Owens, or The New Day losing the Tag Team titles to The Usos, or Lucha Dragons doesn’t seem as far of a reach.

Both of those title changes would shake up the game a little to create some new feuds and get WWE out of this weird funk it is in right now.
