This week it's all about TNA, the PPV, the Champions, the questions, and while we're at it, lets talk a bit about some of the matches that happened at Lockdown.
So..at this point we know who won and who lost, lets get a bit deeper...
About the PPV Lockdown and the actual Steel Cage...
First off This Lockdown PPV was ok, and in fact was the best PPV I have seen TNA do since Hogan and Flair's arrival. I'll give it a 3 out of 5.
I wondered what things would be like without "6 sides of steel", but this cage was ok. All black cage on 4 sides with the traditional door for escape option.
The cage did it's job and withstood an entire card of people gettin' rammed and slammed up against the steel.
So, we got to see a new TNA Knockouts champion crowned, a new X-Division Champion...thou I do have an issue here. We also go a double dose of Kevin Nash...Nash destroyed Eric Young and was technically done for the night. But with a No show from Syxx Pac, Nash decided to take his place making it possible for the "outsiders" to team up against Team 3D. So um...what happened to Pac? You know...Just when they get Scott Hall on the right track...this happens, and once again Nash is there to pick up the pieces....Yeah, again!
All this, and we still got to see everyone's favorite Hulk Hogan beat Ric Flair's ass...and it felt fresh. Credit a nice assist from Eric Bishoff. Keep in mind this isn't everything that happened, just some of my favorite stuff.
So my other beef besides Syxx not showing up for no apparent reason, was the other no show issue. Doug Williams couldn't make it because he was stuck in Europe...Seriously, everyone that's out there tryin' to leave has to wait for clearance because of a volcano that erupted....true story. But that didn't stop TNA from stripping him of the X-Division title and having another guy take the 3rd spot in the Triple threat match. Homicide earned the 3rd spot, but Kaz won. I'm sorry...but What?! Stripped Williams of the belt? Bad enough he had a match where he didn't even have to get pinned to loose the belt, but now this happens? That's wrong. Williams just got boned.
Ok that's it..I was ok with just about everything else. TNA Lockdown was a plus for TNA for a change. Now they gotta carry this wave as far as they can. Then start makin' new waves.
