WWE TLC 2018: Predicting the quality of every match

#9 Finn Balor vs. Drew McIntyre

Grin Balor goes to his doom.

The third of a series of matches that feel like they shouldn't be happening at all, it's a wonder why it was booked, especially since the alliance between McIntyre and Ziggler dissolved on the way into TLC.

Perhaps Ziggler will replace Balor, given his supposed illness. No word on that yet, but it wouldn't make too much of a difference on the ranking of this match.

Whether it's Balor or Ziggler, it still feels like an afterthought in comparison to the rest of the matches on the card, and McIntyre's victory without much trouble is as certain as the sun rising in the east.

McIntyre has far bigger and better things to do as he heads into the Royal Rumble, where he will be one of the favorites to win the most exciting contest on the WWE calendar.
