Card updated!

Guess we will get a Lethal Lockdown match afterall.

Hardy/Angle should be good

 

[Ben]

Card actually looks pretty good, if Angle is healthy the match with Hardy has some potential and Storm/Roode is going to be great.

 

[Smartmark]

I don't think Gail will lose the belt to Sky. But I'm wondering who's gonna challenge her for the title next?

 

[Keith]

Oh dear this is looking like a very iffy card, not least as it is supposed to be TNA's second biggest of the year.

The Lethal Lockdown idea is dumb. The likes of Morgan VS. Crimson and Robbie E VS. Devon belong on Impact at best.

KO and tag title matches should be the other highlights after the main event, not bothered about Angle-Hardy.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Only really looking forward to Roode/Storm but I've been wanting them to main event a PPV since their split. It may have been the wrong choice to having a gimmick match to start what I hope to be a series of matches but I'm sure with this opportunity they will do everything possible to tear down the house.

Seriously just hope the rest of the card can keep me entertained until then. I'm sure Hardy/Angle will be the complete opposite of their last match seeing as a cage is involved. They'll probably go overboard kicking out of everything under the sun.

 

[Chris]

Let's look at this card in terms of build up and how good the match most likely will be:

Roode vs Storm: Great build up, and should be a great match.

Lethal Lockdown: Build up hasn't been horrible with the Eric/Garrett feud. I think with the right participants, the match could be alright, don't expect it to be bad.

Jeff Hardy vs Angle: Feud hasn't been horrible, thought the Victory Road match was good, not great. I think the cage will help them produce a match of better quality.

MCMG vs Joe/Magnus: No build up, should be a great match though

Sky vs Kim: Little build up, will be a decent at best match.

Robbie vs Devon: Zero build up, going to be a horrible match

Crimson vs Morgan: Good build up actually, but the match will probably suck.

Bottom line: BUILD UP YOUR PPV MATCHES!

I stuggle to see the appeal of Angle/Hardy in 2012. I just think the two could have had an awesome feud when Hardy was on fire a few years ago, and with Kurt also in his prime, but now it just looks a desprate feud between two former WWE stars who are not as good as they were. I admit for his age and considering his injuries Angle can still go, but I just think it is an up hill task carrying Hardy, the pair should be working with younger talent to get them over.

It's really not that appealing, but I think that since I had such low expectations for the feud, the fact that it's not horrible is making me like it. Angle's promo a few weeks back where he talked about all the reasons he hated Jeff Hardy was really good, reminded me of 2000 Angle promos. Like I previously stated, I thought they had a solid match at Victory Road, just with a bad ending, so I'm waiting to see how the cage will benefit or hurt them.

Is Angle still wrestling at Lockdown? He has pulled out of the US Olympic trials because of hamstring and knee injuries so shouldn't he then not be wrestling here because he is injured?

I'd assume that, if Angle's out who would face Hardy?

Where's Dinero these days? I'd have him return just to face Hardy.

 

[Heisenberg]

i will probably watch this on a stream for FREE. gives me something to do but I know I'll still be bored anyway. tna is just terrible.

 

[Keith]

Could be off the mark here, but I think Angle might be using a fake injury as an excuse for pulling out of the Olympic trials, but then will still make the Lockdown appearence. TNA would really have egg on their face if they pulled him out this close to the show.

 

[Troy]

I also think that his Olympic injury angle is fake and if he wrestles at Lockdown it will pretty much prove that he was lying about the injury or at least the severity of it. Might have been smarter to wait until after the PPV to make the announcement.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Angle stated in an interview he is hurt but they are injuries he can wrestle through but he will have a large brace on his knee. I'd link the interview but I read it here somewhere not sure where.
