#2 The women’s tables match doesn’t become another afterthought

This year’s Tables Match between Natalya and Ruby Riott marks the third time women will fight in such a stipulation at the WWE TLC pay-per-view. While the women in the WWE have proven that they can have as high quality stipulation matches as their male counterparts such as a Last Woman Standing match, the same unfortunately can’t be said for a Tables match.
Back in 2010, when Laycool faced Natalya and Beth Phoenix in a first ever women's Tag Team Tables match in the WWE, even though they created history, the match itself, unfortunately, didn’t live up to its expectations. Six years later, Alexa Bliss faced Becky Lynch in another underwhelming match.
Is this man the funniest man in wrestling?
Regardless of whoever wins this match, the WWE need to avoid another disappointing match a third time round because, even though it can be argued WWE are trying to create more history in women’s wrestling, the reality is that a bad match is often worse than no match. If the women’s tables match this Sunday becomes another disappointment, it sets a precedent – and whoever is next to fight in a women’s tables match would have a harder time winning the WWE universe’s interest due to the underwhelming matches there has been in the past.
