"AJ Styles and Dean Ambrose was,arguably, as strong a bout as WWE has had in 2016 and the two skilled performers' ability to utilize all the toys of a TLC match were incredible. The two sold extremely well which helped me to 'feel' what they were experiencing which is always imperative for the talents and the broadcasters to embrace with the viewers. When talents are selling properly it allows the announcers to better 'get the talents over,'" wrote Ross,    

The match ended with Styles retaining the championship. Ross sang AJ's praises above all of the WWE roster and the world. Ross looks forward to the future with Styles and Ambrose. 

"Athletically, AJ is the second coming of the great Shawn Michaels and they both possess natural, innate timing that can't be taught. AJ Styles, for my money, is the best in ring talent in the business today. He's the type of athlete that WWE can build a brand around. I can see Ambrose turning heel sooner than later when the proper hand has been dealt creatively in order for him to run with it on a main event level.Hopefully, Styles and Ambrose will get a nice bonus for the above and beyond performance in the TLC main event," wrote Ross.

WWE TLC featured four championship matches with two titles changing hands. Ross also liked the WWE Intercontinental Championship ladder match. He also discussed Ring of Honor's Final Battle.
