MATCHCARD:

 

[Bort]

- should be a good PPV
- Sting/Roode, hellyeah!
- Stinger's poster is epic
- Aries/Ion is an interesting heel vs. heel dynamic, hopefully they turn Aries face

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I think they will (or at least should) save Morgan/Crimson for Lockdown

 

[Crayo]

Should be a great PPV this. Expecting to see Angle vs Hardy on this.

Not too keen on Sting being in the ME but if it means Roode going over then great.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Angle/Hardy should also be saved for LD

 

[Crayo]

When is LD? Is that there version of like a Survivor Series?

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

LD is April 15th. Idk exactly what it's WWE equivalent would be, but it's generally one of if not the biggest PPV of the year for TNA, along with BFG and Slammiversary

 

[Crayo]

Fair enough, but why would you wait until then? What kayfabe reason would make it so they don't compete on the PPV? Unless one "injures" the other.

Lockdown doesn't really have an equivalent in the WWE tbh, every match is in a cage basically. The speciality is Lethal Lockdown where there are a 2 teams of 4/5 where one member enters every few minutes (forgot the official times) when the last person enters a roof is lowered with weapons hanging from it. Alot of crazy shit happens like Daniels cross body from the roof and AJ doing a splash after hanging onto the support beam on top of the cage.

VR is more or less a throwaway PPV and I just want LD to be as sick as possible

Kayfabe wise I don't have a real reason. I guess they could continue to try and 'work things out' and not have things boil over until sometime after VR

Yeah, every year (literally) someone dives or jumps off the top of the cage. It's AJ most of the times, but Daniels also did it last year.

 

[seabs]

Angle and Jeff would do some crazy shit in a cage. Kurt would hit his signature top of the cage moonsault and Jeff would probably hit a swanton off the cage aswell.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Angle vs Hardy in a cage will be sick.

I could see them having a match at VR but having a screwy finish or Angle cheating to win, and Sting forces a rematch at LD as a #1 contenders match where Jeff goes over

My thoughts as well, I don't really care about it since TNA doesn't.
But TNA cared even less last year, the hype was blink-and-you-miss-it.
But for what it's worth, the show was very good last year (excluding the obvious)

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I think VR still can be a solid PPV, but they need to save the big ammunition for LD IMO. I'm looking forward to Sting/Roode, and I always love Austin Aries no matter what he is dong, and find the heel/heel dynamic with Ion to be intriguing
