Lockdown (2008) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), which took place on April 13, 2008 at the Tsongas Arena in Lowell, Massachusetts. It was the fourth annual Lockdown event. Eight professional wrestling matches were featured on the event's card. As per tradition of Lockdown events, every match was contested inside Six Sides of Steel.

The event featured a supercard, a scheduling of more than one main event. The first was a Six Sides of Steel cage match for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship in which Samoa Joe defeated the reigning champion Kurt Angle. The other main event was a Lethal Lockdown match; in this match, Team Cage (Christian Cage, Kevin Nash, Rhino, Sting, and Matt Morgan) defeated Team Tomko (Tomko, A.J. Styles, Team 3D [Brother Ray and Brother Devon], and James Storm). Two featured bouts were scheduled on the undercard. In an intergender tag team match, Booker T and Sharmell defeated Robert Roode and Payton Banks. The other bout was an Xscape match for the TNA X Division Championship. The champion, Jay Lethal defeated Consequences Creed, Johnny Devine, Shark Boy, Curry Man, and Sonjay Dutt in this match to retain the championship.

When the event was released on DVD, it reached a peak position of number five on Billboard's DVD Sales Chart. The professional wrestling section of the Canadian Online Explorer website rated the entire event a 6.5 out of 10 stars, one star higher than the 2007 event.

Background

See also: Professional wrestling

The event featured eight professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers were portrayed as either villains or fan favorites as they followed a series of events which built tension, culminating in a wrestling match or series of matches. As per tradition of Lockdown events, every match was contested inside a 16 feet (4.9 m) high steel structure with six sides, also known as Six Sides of Steel.[4]

Christian Cage was named one of the captains in the Lethal Lockdown match at Lockdown by Jim Cornette.

The main event at Lockdown featured TNA World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle defending the title against Samoa Joe (Joe Seanoa) in a Six Sides of Steel match. On the March 13 episode of Impact!, TNA's primary television program, Management Director Jim Cornette, a portrayed match maker and rules enforcer, announced that Angle would defend the title against Joe at Lockdown.[5] During the show, Joe was scripted to make an announcement in which if he did not win at Lockdown, he would quit TNA.[5] Joe later changed this statement to quitting professional wrestling on a later episode of Impact!. Later in the program, Angle successfully defended his championship against Kaz (Frank Gerdelman); after the match, Angle announced that he would defeat Joe at Lockdown to prove that he was the best wrestler in the world.[6] Joe did not appear on Impact! for several weeks, as TNA reported that he was training for his match at Lockdown.[7]

The other main rivalry heading into Lockdown was between Team Cage and Team Tomko in the annual Lethal Lockdown match. In this match, one wrestler from each team starts in the ring. After five minutes, one more wrestler enters, who is followed two minutes later by a member of the other team. Every two minutes, a new wrestler enters until all ten are in the ring, at which point a ceiling with weapons attached is lowered and pinfalls or submissions are allowed. Team Cage consisted of Christian Cage (William Reso), Kevin Nash, Rhino (Terry Gerin), Sting (Steve Borden), and Matt Morgan, while Team Tomko was made up of Tomko (Travis Tomko), A.J. Styles (Allen Jones), James Storm (James Black), and the Team 3D pairing of Brother Ray (Mark LoMonaco) and Brother Devon (Devon Hughes). On the March 13 episode of Impact!, Cornette announced that the match would take place at Lockdown and that Cage and Tomko were the team captains for the match.[6] Their scripted rivalry began when Tomko betrayed Cage, who was befriending him at the time, at the company's February pay-per-view, which is known as Against All Odds, in Cage's TNA World Heavyweight Championship match against Kurt Angle in which he helped Angle retain his title.[8] On the March 13 and 20 episodes of Impact!, Tomko chose Styles and Team 3D, respectively, as his team members, which completed the three spots remaining on his team.[9][10] During those respective episodes, Cage also announced two of his three team members, which were Rhino and Nash.[5][10] Sting, who was returning to in-ring competition after he had not been seen on television in the company since November of 2007, was added to Team Cage on the March 27 episode of Impact!.[11] Later in the program, Sting, Cage, Rhino, and Nash defeated Styles, Tomko, and Team 3D; after the match Storm, in storyline, hit Sting in the back of the head with a beer bottle.[12] On the April 3 episode of Impact!, Cornette's storyline replacement for the night, Matt Morgan, allowed Team Tomko to add a fifth member to its team, which ended up being Storm, as a result of him attacking Sting the week before; Cage added Morgan later in the program to even the odds.[13]

Booker T was feuding with Robert Roode going into Lockdown.

One of the featured matches on the card was an intergender tag team match between the team of Booker T (Robert Huffman) and Sharmell (Sharmell Sullivan-Huffman), and the team of Robert Roode and Payton Banks (Bonnie Maxon). Their rivalry began after Booker T made his debut in the promotion at their November pay-per-view event in 2007.[14] In the storyline, Roode was unhappy that wrestlers from other promotions were coming to TNA and preventing him from becoming a main event level wrestler. At Final Resolution, Roode accidentally punched Booker T's wife, Sharmell, and as a result was scripted as having a fractured jaw.[15] Sharmell subsequently did not appear on Impact! for several weeks while the storyline had her healing from the scripted injury. Booker T and Roode then competed in two encounters, one at TNA's February PPV,[8] and the other at TNA's March PPV, which was known as Destination X.[16] After their match at Destination X, Sharmell returned and attacked Roode, Banks, Cornette, and security workers. On the March 20 episode of Impact!, Cornette promoted an intergender tag team match for Lockdown, in which Booker T and Sharmell would face Roode and Banks.[17]

Another main match on the card was the annual X Division Xscape match, in which TNA X Division Champion Jay Lethal (Jamar Shipman) defended the championship against Consequences Creed (Austin Watson), Johnny Devine (John Parsonage), Shark Boy (Dean Roll), Curry Man (Daniel Covell), and Sonjay Dutt (Retesh Bhalla) in this match. In an Xscape match, six competitors fight until four are eliminated by pinfall or submission; the two remaining wrestlers then try to escape from the cage, and the first to do so is declared the winner. Each of the challengers fought in qualification matches on Impact! to determine who would participate. The first qualification match saw Curry Man defeat Petey Williams on the March 13 episode of Impact!.[6] Dutt defeated Homicide (Nelson Erazo) on the March 20 episode of Impact!.[17] In the third match, Devine defeated Alex Shelley (Patrick Martin) on the March 27 episode of Impact!.[7] Shark Boy defeated Elix Skipper in the fourth qualification match that occurred on the April 3 episode of Impact!.[18] On the April 10 episode of Impact!, Creed defeated Jimmy Rave (James Guffey) to become the last to qualify.[19]

In the Women's division, Gail Kim and O.D.B. (Jessica Kresa) were involved in an on-screen feud with Awesome Kong (Kia Stevens) and Raisha Saeed (Melissa Anderson). Kim, the former TNA Women's Knockout Champion, lost the championship to Kong on the January 10 episode of Impact!.[20] During the match, Saeed helped Kong win the championship by distracting Kim, also Kim sustaining a storyline injury, which did not allow her to challenge Kong for the championship at the next up coming TNA pay-per-view Against All Odds.[20] O.D.B challenged Kong for the title, however, she was unable to win the title in a match against Kong at Against All Odds after interference from Kong's manager Saeed.[8] After Kim returned following Against All Odds, TNA announced that at Destination X, Kim, O.D.B., and Kong would be involved in a 3-Way Dance, a standard match involving three competitors, for the TNA Women's Knockout Championship. Kong prevailed at Destination X with help from Saeed.[16] Saeed repeatedly interfered in Kim's and O.D.B.'s championship matches. This resulted in a tag team match advertised for Lockdown in which the team of Kim and O.D.B. would face Kong and Saeed.

Another rivalry heading into Lockdown was the encounter between former Voodoo Kin Mafia partners B.G. James (Brian Gerard James) and Kip James (Monty Sopp). This rivalry slowly began to arise in early December, when B.G. won a TNA World Tag Team Title shot at TNA's December pay-per-view in 2007.[21] Kip, wanting B.G. to choose him to be his partner when he challenged the World Tag Team Champions, asked B.G. to announce who his partner would be when he challenged for the championship. Before Against All Odds, B.G. finally announced that his partner would be his farther Bob Armstrong (Joseph James). B.G. stated that throughout his career he has always wanted to hold a tag team championship with his dad. Kip was displeased with the decision but said he understood. At Against All Odds, B.G. teamed with Armstrong to fight the reigning World Tag Team Champions A.J. Styles and Tomko for the TNA World Tag Team Championship.[8] B.G. and Armstrong, however, failed in their attempt. A rematch was held on the episode of Impact! after Against All Odds, in which Kip filled in for B.G., who was legitimately injured.[22] During the match, Kip was scripted to attack B.G. and Armstrong, who were at ringside.[22] It was later revealed that Kip was displeased at B.G. for not teaming with him during the title match. A match was later announced by TNA pitting B.G. against Kip at Lockdown.

Event

Preliminary matches

The Xscape match for the TNA X Division Championship was the first match at Lockdown to air live on pay-per-view. The participants were Jay Lethal, Curry Man, Shark Boy, Johnny Devine, Sonjay Dutt, and Consequences Creed. The match began with Lethal and Dutt working together towards eliminating the other competitors, though, Dutt was eliminated by Devine after he was rolled on his back for a pinfall, in a move known as a roll-up.[24] Afterward, Creed slammed Shark Boy's head forward onto the mat and eliminated him by pinfall.[25] This was followed by Curry Man performing a front flip from the top of the cage and driving his back into Creed's chest in a move known as a senton, and then lifting Creed up onto his shoulders and slamming him down face first to execute a Spice Rack to gain the pinfall. This left Curry Man, Devine, and Lethal as the remaining competitors.[4] Devine the grabbed Curry Man's and placed it between his legs, hooked both of Curry Man's arms behind his back, and fell to a seated position to force Curry Man's head into the mat to perform a move Devine dubbed the Devine-Intervention. He then pinned Curry Man to eliminate him from the match.[26] With Devine and Lethal as the only two participants left, each man tried to escape from the cage. During the final moments of the match, Devine taped Lethal's hands to the cage to prevent him from escaping, but as Devine tried to escape through the cage door, Dutt, who remained at ringside, prevented him from doing so. Eventually, Lethal freed himself and jumped through the cage door to win the match and retain his TNA X Division Title..[27]

Jay Lethal retained the TNA X Division Championship at Lockdown in the Xscape match.

The Queen of the Cage Match for the number one contendership to the TNA Women's Knockout Championship followed, which involved Roxxi Laveaux (Nicole Raczynski), Angelina Love (Lauren Williams), Velvet Sky (Jamie Szantyr), Salinas (Shelly Martinez), Rhaka Khan (Trenesha Biggers), Traci Brooks (Tracy Brookshaw), Christy Hemme, and Jacqueline (Jacqueline Moore). In this match, the participants fought to climb up the cage and into the ring, where the first two to do so had a standard wrestling match. The two women that entered the cage were Love and Laveaux.[26] The finish saw Love roll Laveaux onto her back in a pin attempt, but Laveaux countered and threw Love into one of the steel cage's walls. Laveaux then picked and dropped Love in a seated position to execute The Voodoo Drop. She then pinned Love to earn the opportunity to challenge for the TNA Women's Knockout Title.[28]

The third bout was a Six Sides of Steel match between B.G. James and Kip James. During the match, Kip attempted to run and hit B.G., who was positioned in the ring corner, but B.G. moved out of the way. As B.G. moved out of the way, Kip hit the corner and B.G. rolled Kip into a roll-up to win the match via pinfall.[28]

The Cuffed in the Cage match for a future TNA World Tag Team Championship match against the tag team champions A.J. Styles and Tomko involved Kaz and Eric Young (Jeremy Fritz), The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin [Joshua Harter] and Alex Shelley), Rellik (John Hugger) and Black Reign (Dustin Runnels), The Latin American Xchange (Homicide and Hernandez [Shawn Hernandez]), Scott Steiner (Scott Rechsteiner) and Petey Williams, and The Rock 'n Rave Infection (Lance Hoyt and Jimmy Rave) (RNRI).[25] The Cuffed in the Cage match is a match in which six teams are locked insides the Six Sides of Steel. The match is contested until eleven of the wrestlers are handcuffed, and the remaining competitor wins his team the future championship match. While the RNRI were making their way to the ring, a staged confrontation took place backstage which saw Rellik and Reign attack Young. Because of this, his partner, Kaz, had to compete in the match alone until Young recovered from his storyline injuries. The match came down to Rellik, Reign, and RNRI. Then the theme song for Super Eric (Young's alter ego, in storyline) played in the arena. Super Eric ran to the ring and performed a splash from the top of the cage onto all of his opponents, who were standing together in a group. Afterwards, he stood up and cuffed Rave; a little later he cuffed Rave's partner, Hoyt. Rellik and Reign tried to cuff Super Eric to the cage, but Super Eric tricked Rellik and cuffed him instead. A few moments later, Super Eric claim victory in the match after he cuffed Reign.[26] The order of eliminations in the match were as follows: Steiner, Shelley, Sabin, Homicide, Williams, Hernandez, Kaz, Rave, Hoyt, Rellik, and Reign.

The main match from the Women's division was next, which was a tag team match between the team of Awesome Kong and Raisha Saeed, and the team of Gail Kim and O.D.B. The match began with O.D.B. and Kong, but less than a minute later they both tagged out. The match ended when Kong attempted to perform a spinning back fist on O.D.B., but O.D.B. ducked. Causing Kong to accidentally hit her partner Saeed. Afterwards, Kim performed a dropkick from the top rope on Kong, which allowed O.D.B. to climb to the center of the top rope and execute a splash on Saeed to gain the pinfall victory.[28]

Main event matches

The next match pitted Booker T and Sharmell against Robert Roode and Payton Banks. The match began with Booker T being preoccupied by his wife, which allowed Roode to attack him from behind and take control of the match by hitting him in the chest with backhand slaps. Booker T became enraged and fought back with slaps of his own. Towards the end of the match, Roode held Sharmell for Banks to slap her, but Sharmell hit Roode with a low blow to the groin and jumped out of the way, causing Banks to slap Roode by mistake. Sharmell then pinned Banks with a roll-up for the pinfall victory.[24] Following the match, Booker T and Sharmell celebrated their victory and returned to the backstage area while Roode and Banks had a staged confrontation in the ring which saw Roode blaming Banks for their loss. Roode then returned to the locker room, leaving Banks crying in the ring. This was Banks' last appearance in the promotion.

The first of two featured matches was the Lethal Lockdown match between Team Cage (Christian Cage, Kevin Nash, Rhino, Sting, and Matt Morgan) and Team Tomko (Tomko, A.J. Styles, Team 3D [Brother Ray and Brother Devon], and James Storm, who was accompanied by Jacqueline). Although the match was supposed to begin with the team captains (Cage and Tomko), it instead began with Cage and Styles. While Cage was waiting in the ring for Tomko to enter, Styles climbed up the side of the cage wall behind Cage and entered the ring, he then performed a forearm strike to the back of his head from the top rope. Styles and Cage fought back and forth for five minutes, at which point Ray entered from Team Tomko. Two minutes later, Rhino from Team Cage entered. Storm, accompanied by Jacqueline, entered next for Team Tomko. Nash then entered the cage and helped Team Cage dominate the match with his size and strength advantage until Devon entered for the other team. Two minutes later, Morgan entered and used his size and strength advantage to dismantle all of his opponents. After another two minutes, Tomko, the final member of his team and captain, entered the ring with a steel chair, but it was taken away by referee Earl Hebner. After Sting's entrance two minutes later, the ceiling, which was covered with weapons including a ladder, a table, trash cans, and kendo sticks[25], was lowered and the competitors began to use the weapons. Storm and Cage climbed through a small hole in the ceiling to the roof of the cage, where they started to fight with the weapons that were up there. Meanwhile, Styles attacked every member of Team Cage with a kendo stick and then climbed to the top of the cage to help Storm. After Cage was incapacitated, Storm and Styles placed him on a table, which proceeded Styles climbing a ladder. Cage stood up, knocked Storm down, and climbed the ladder to fight Styles. Storm pushed the ladder over, and Styles and Cage fell through the table that was set up earlier.[4] Storm climbed back down into the cage and hit Morgan over the head with a beer bottle; after Storm turned around Rhino performed a a running shoulder block to Storm's stomach to gain the pinfall victory for Team Cage.[26]

Kurt Angle defended the TNA World Heavyweight Championship against Samoa Joe at Lockdown in the main event.

In the main event, Kurt Angle defended his TNA World Heavyweight Championship against Samoa Joe. Joe entered first, following a Samoan fire dancers performance to show his pride in his Samoan heritage. Angle entered next, and the introductions were made, including those for referee Rudy Charles (Daniel Engler), backstage interviewer and ring announcer Jeremy Borash, and Marcus Davis, Joe's trainer.[28] Joe and Angle's introductions were done in the style of Mixed Martial Arts and Professional Boxing introductions. Karen Angle, Kurt Angle's wife from whom he was involved in a storyline separation, was shown on-screen, which angered him because he did not want to be distracted from the match. He then had her removed from the building, as she screamed obscenities.[26] During the match, each man countered the other's submission moves, holds that are used by professional athletes to make their opponent concede defeat. Late in the match, Joe slammed Angle against the cage wall and followed with a high angle kick to the throat. He then placed Angle on the top rope, lifted Angle up, and slammed Angle's back and neck into his shoulder and the mat by using a maneuver dubbed the Muscle Buster. After Joe performed the move, he pinned Angle to win his first World Heavyweight Championship.[25] Davis presented him with the championship belt; Joe celebrated his victory as the event came to a close.[28]

Aftermath

Further information: [[:Sacrifice (2008)]]
Scott Steiner went on to have a TNA World Heavyweight Championship match at Sacrifice against Samoa Joe and Kaz.

The storyline rivalry between Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle continued on Impact!, where Angle claimed to have a rematch clause in his contract on the April 17 episode of Impact!.[29] Angle got a rematch against Joe on the April 24 episode of Impact!, which Joe won after Scott Steiner, who was scheduled to have a TNA Championship match at TNA's next pay-per-view event Sacrifice, hit Angle with a lead pipe.[30] Due to this controversial finish, Jim Cornette made the TNA World Heavyweight Championship match at Sacrifice a 3-Way Dance between Joe, Steiner, and Angle.[30] The match, however, did not occur as Angle sustained a legitimate injury and was replaced by Kaz, who won The TerrorDome match; which occurred at Sacrifice; to take his place.[31] At Sacrifice, Joe pinned Steiner to retain the championship.[32]

TNA X Division Champion Jay Lethal later lost the title to Petey Williams when Williams used his X Division Championship match, which he won at Turning Point in 2007, against Lethal on the April 17 episode of Impact!.[33]

On the April 17 episode of Impact!, World Tag Team Champions A.J. Styles and Tomko defended the titles against the teams of The Latin American Xchange (Homicide and Hernandez) (LAX) and Kaz and Eric Young. Young left midway through the match but later returned as Super Eric.[33] He pinned Styles to win the match, but Styles and Tomko later claimed that Young and Super Eric were two different people.[33] Young refused to agree that he was Super Eric, so Cornette vacated the title and set up a Deuces Wild Tag Team Tournament to determine the new champions.[30] The tournament had eight established tag teams fight against each other, with only four teams moving to the next round. Team 3D (Brother Ray and Brother Devon); Christian Cage and Rhino; LAX; and A.J. Styles and Super Eric (Eric replaced Tomko, who had sustained a storyline injury) advanced to face the teams of Booker T and Roode, Sting and Storm, Kip and Morgan, and B.G. and Kong. LAX claimed victory in the tournament after defeating Team 3D in the final round.[31]

The storyline feud between Team Cage and Team Tomko gradually died out. Cage and Rhino formed a tag team in the Deuces Wild Tag Team Tournament. Meanwhile, Styles and Tomko broke up because of Styles losing their tag team titles. Styles later turned face, or fan favorite, as a result of Tomko attacking him on an episode of Impact!.[34]

Reception

The Tsongas Arena has a maximum capacity of 7,800, however, TNA only sold 5,500 tickets for the event.[1] Although, this was the second highest margin TNA has gathered at its pay-per-view events, with Lockdown in 2007 having an attendance of 6,000, which is the highest TNA has had to date at a pay-per-view event, according to Pro Wrestling History.com.[1]

Canadian Online Explorer writer Chris Sokol rated the entire event 6.5 out of 10 stars.[24] The rating was higher than the 2007 event, which was given a 5.5 out of 10 stars.[35] The Lethal Lockdown match, one of the matches from the double main event, was rated 9 out of 10 stars.[24] The main event match for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship was rated an 8 out of 10 stars, the lesser of the two.[24] Simon Rothstein, a journalist for United Kingdom newspaper The Sun, in his review when he spoke of the main event he stated it was "The best match of the night, this was perfectly booked and executed"[36] He felt that as a result it "should give TNA the impetus to quickly smash the records they set at Lockdown."[36]

The event was released on DVD on June 17, 2008[37] by TNA Home Video.[38] The DVD reached a peak position of number five on Billboard's DVD Sales Chart for recreational sports during the week of July 12, 2008.[39] The DVD remained on the chart for two consecutive weeks, although it ranked lower after the week of July 12, 2008. During its final week on the chart, the week of July 19, it ranked number twelve.[40]
