WWE fans expecting a typical Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match got much more than they bargained for on SmackDown.

Friday night’s Netflix live stream of the weekly wrestling show was headlined by a blockbuster main event pitting WWE Tag Team Champions the Street Profits against challengers #DIY and Motor City Machine Guns.

TLC matches are always a whirlwind of weapons, but viewers didn’t think they’d see an actual prosthetic leg become part of the show.

Midway through a barnstormer of a bout, a fan on the front row was seen waving his limb and begging Montez Ford to use it as a weapon.

There was a second’s hesitation before the 34-year-old wrestler obliged, cracking Johnny Gargano with the fake leg to cheers from the crowd in a moment that can only happen in WWE.

Profits went onto retain the gold, but for a while all people were talking about online was the outrageous unplanned exchange.

‘Taking a fake leg is the BEST thing ive ever seen . Thats the best crowd assisted moment of the decade 🤣🤣🤣💯 (sic),’ laughed @Dev2Trilll, while @JuicyJunior77 added: ‘mf just used someone’s prosthetic leg as a weapon 🤣🤣’

Viewers were in disbelief, with @DazednGlaze writing: ‘The fan giving Montez his prosthetic leg omg 😂😂💀💀💀💀’

‘Montez Ford using the fan’s prosthetic leg just made the match that much better,’ tweeted @deadeditors_, while @thashark613 wrote: ‘Did I just see a prosthetic leg used as a weapon?!?! This match is EVERYTHING!’

And @PrinceWatercress said: ‘Montez Ford just whacked somebody in the back with a fan’s prosthetic leg. Highlight of the night. #SmackDown’

Away from the prosthetic action, the trio of teams clearly had a point to prove after missing out on being part of the WrestleMania card.

The nonstop energy and high risk action would have been a contender for match of Mania weekend if it’d taken place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Still, fans were in awe of the spectacle, hailing the clash one of the best ever, as JasonCowboysMan claimed: ‘That has got to be the wildest TLC match of all time.’

‘This tag team TLC match is one of the best I have ever watched, this is absolutely insane,’ raved @EHazardFC, as @RobTaker agreed: ‘This might be the craziest TLC match ever!’

And OMGitsAlexsi hit the nail on the head as they wrote: ‘This might be one of the best TLC matches ever. It would have absolutely stolen the entire show at Mania had it made the card.’

SmackDown more than delivered across the board too, with John Cena challenging Randy Orton for one final match at Backlash, the return of Aleister Black, and Zelina Vega capturing the United States Championship.

Netflix is the home of WWE in the UK, with weekly episodes of Raw, NXT and SmackDown, classic shows and more.
