Default Re: Lockdown Discussion Thread

This was the first TNA PPV I was disappointed in, not because it was bad, but just because I had such high expectations. Probably still worth the money and I'm sure I'll enjoy it more once I can forget the high expectations. I think all the matches suffered from rushed endings, except perhaps the Knockout Tag.
X-scape - I was waiting for the inevitable Dutt turn yet was pleasantly surprised that they went the opposite way. Glad to see Lethal win as well and the ending, though unspectacular, was fairly unique.
QotC - What was the point of climbing in? Roxxie and Angelina did fine but we just saw almost the same match for free on Impact.
Kip and BG - This match was bad and made worse by the fact that the hype had been so good. They sure didn't look like two guys who had been waiting to tear one another apart.
Cuffed - I enjoy TNA comedy more than most, but I don't want the serious tag teams taking a back seat to Eric Young.
Knockouts - Very good match, as always with Kong. Good use of the cage, good flow, logical ending.
Roode/Booker - A very good singles match bizarrely finished by the women. And they've already gotten Roode heat for poor treatment of women. How many more women are they going to have him berate and hit. I felt sorry for Brooks, don't really care what happens to Banks.
LL - I enjoyed the lead in with the addition of Morgan and Storm but I think 5 v 5 was just too much. The ladder spot didn't really make much sense though it was fun to watch. I thought Team Tomko should have won, but certainly don't give the pin to Rhino on the first try.
Main Event - Liked it even more the second time I watched it. There's actually very little MMA stuff, it's more old school wrestling, which I tend to enjoy, than MMA. Thought the ending needed a little more build, though, to make Joe's victory seem well-earned.
