At WWE TLC, the vengeful rage of an uncontrollable monster will clash head-on with one of the most maniacal Superstars ever to set foot in the squared circle, as World Heavyweight Champion Kane battles Edge in a Tables, Ladders & Chairs Match for the World Title.
It all started after Edge captured the right to challenge Kane for the World Title at Survivor Series on the Oct. 29 edition of SmackDown (Watch). The Master Manipulator immediately set a plan in place to turn the tables of intimidation of his frightening opponent by abducting Kane’s father, Paul Bearer.
Their brutal Survivor Series title match failed to put their tensions to rest, ending in a controversial draw, with Kane still in possession of the title and Edge still in possession of Kane’s father. (Match results | Photos)
Back on SmackDown, Edge continued to make The Big Red Monster play his games week after week, dangling his terrified father just out of his reach. Desperately trying to get Paul Bearer back, Kane offered Edge another championship match. Although Edge accepted, he continued to torment “The Devil’s Favorite Demon,” destroying a series of fake Paul Bearers, presenting the illusion that they were the real “Father of Destruction.”
Edge’s efforts allowed him to defeat Kane in a non-title match on the Dec. 3 edition of SmackDown, giving The Ultimate Opportunist the right to choose the stipulation of their World Title match at WWE TLC. He wasted no time choosing his “specialty,” a Tables, Ladders & Chairs Match.
The Rated-R Superstar has been involved in TLC matches since their creation and his success has been second to none. In the 10-match history of one of the squared circle’s most dangerous and exciting specialty matches, the nine-time World Champion has competed in six of them and been on the winning side of four.
The Big Red Monster has been virtually unstoppable since wining the World Heavyweight Championship and is no stranger to intense specialty matches. Though he doesn’t possess Edge’s record with TLC onslaughts, he has taken them to new heights. In a classic TLC Match on Monday Night Raw in 2002, the horrific Superstar single-handedly reigned supreme over three tag teams to retain the then-active World Tag Team Title.
But, has the continued absence of Kane’s father thrown him so far off his game that he will not be mentally able to defeat The Master Manipulator? Or will it only add to his rage? Find out at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs, Sunday, Dec. 19 at 8/7 CT, only on pay-per-view.
