WWE TLC has been the standard December pay-per-view for the last several years, but from the recent reports there will be no WWE pay-per-view in December in favor of their New Year’s Day pay-per-view on January 1.
On the recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that WWE plans to cancel the WWE TLC PPV in mid-December for idea of doing their New Year’s “Day 1” event.
“Originally, there was going to be a pay-per-view in Chicago at the Allstate Arena in mid-December,” Dave Meltzer began. “And the feeling is now that doing 12 a year, and the December pay-per-view will actually be January 1 in Atlanta. The idea of doing January 1 rather than do mid-late December. And then they’re still gonna do Royal Rumble as the January pay-per-view. A lot of people were wondering, when they moved the December Chicago date from being a pay-per-view to being a television taping, who’s gonna get the pay-per-view? And the answer is that there is no pay-per-view.”
