WWE TLC 2012 Results: Championship Matches & #1 Contenders Decided Early in Event
Sunday night's WWE TLC 2012 results have brought early championship match winners as well as some new top contenders for other championships. So far a variety of matches have taken place with at least one surprise during the latest pro wrestling Pay-Per-View event. There's still plenty of great action on the way, which could have WWE surprising its fans even more in the last PPV event of the year.
The WWE TLC results started with a live stream pre-show featuring the divas in action. The special battle royal was held to determine the latest #1 contender for Eve's Divas title. Surprisingly, Naomi, one of Brodus Clay's dancers, emerged as the winner. Many fans might not realize that she was the runner-up to Kaitlyn on a season of NXT, and actually has some athletic in-ring skills. Naomi earned the right to challenge Eve for the title, and it could be another surprise should she win the title.
Another championship contender was decided in a tag team tables match. The team of Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow managed to outwit the team of Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara, ultimately shoving Sin Cara out of the air and down through a table. With that move, they captured the win, making them the #1 contenders for Team Hell No's tag team titles. Rhodes Scholars will get a future title shot, most likely on Raw or at another Pay-Per-View, as Daniel Bryan and Kane are in action tonight.
Two championship matches have completed with no major surprises. Both R-Truth and Wade Barrett failed in their quests to win the titles they were competing for. Barrett lost out to Kofi Kingston's Trouble in Paradise kick in the end, while R-Truth fell victim to the Neutralizer finisher from Antonio Cesaro. After his match, Cesaro talked about how when the American fans boo him, they're booing themselves since he is their US champion.
While Naomi is the major surprise so far, there was also a special moment at the start of the TLC Pay-Per-View. Prior to the event starting up, the ring bell was sounded 26 times to pay tribute to those who lost their lives at Sandy Hook Elementary School this past Friday. WWE's headquarters are stationed in Connecticut, and the pro wrestling organization made a classy move, just like many other sports professionals and entertainers, to pay respects over this tragedy.
