Production
TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs is an annual gimmick pay-per-view, generally produced every December by WWE since 2009. The concept of the show is based on the primary matches of the card each containing a stipulation using tables, ladders, and chairs as legal weapons, with the main event generally being a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match. 2019 was the eleventh event under the TLC chronology and featured wrestlers from the Raw, SmackDown and NXT brands. It also featured the first-ever women's tag team Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match.

Storylines
The show included matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results are predetermined by WWE's writers on all three brands, while storylines are produced on WWE's weekly television shows.

Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch were best friends and occasional tag team partners since their debut on Raw on years ago. The friendship turned into a bitter rivalry after SummerSlam (2018), when Lynch attacked Flair after she won the SmackDown Women's Championship. The rivalry continued for months, ultimately culminating at WrestleMania 35 in the first-ever women's main event match, which was won by Lynch. The year prior, at WrestleMania 34, Flair had ended Asuka's undefeated streak of 914 days. The two battled numerous times over the year, and at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (2018), Asuka won the SmackDown Women's Championship by defeating both Lynch and Flair in a triple threat match. Now allied with Kairi Sane, the two were reigning as the Women's Tag Team Champions, reigniting their rivalries with both Lynch and Flair, defeating both of them in 2-on-1 handicap matches. Flair and Lynch decided to put aside their differences and come together one more time to take on Asuka and Kairi Sane.
