The rivalry between Ambrose and Rollins began on the Oct. 22 edition of Raw when Ambrose stabbed his former Shield brother in the back after the duo won the Raw Tag Team Titles. Rollins and Ambrose lost the Raw Tag Team Titles on the Nov. 5 episode of Raw after Rollins lost a handicap bout to the Authors of Pain. Following the bout, Ambrose once again left Rollins laying.
This past Monday on Raw, Ambrose set fire to his Shield gear, claiming that the group "made him weak" as he always had to look out for Rollins and Roman Reigns.
WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs takes place on Dec. 16 from the SAP Center in San Jose, California.
