A ‘sudden death’ Triple-Threat match was held on tonight’s edition of Monday Night RAW to determine Drew McIntyre’s opponent at the TLC pay-per-view on December 20th. Riddle, Keith Lee and former two-time WWE Champion AJ Styles competed in the Triple-Threat and AJ pinned Riddle to secure the victory.
The WWE Championship match for TLC is now official as McIntyre will defend against AJ Styles. The TLC pay-per-view is going to be the first inside of Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida which will be the home of WWE’s new ThunderDome setup beginning in early December.

This forthcoming bout will be the first time that McIntyre and AJ have wrestled. The two have been in the same companies at different periods of times and there were small margins between those periods.
