Live Coverage 'LockDown' PPV

Pre-Show
Jeremy Borash was inside the steel cage and noted all of the matches tonight would be taking place inside a steel cage. He introduced TNA Knockouts champion Angelina Love, who made her way to the ring. She said that tonight, it's not just going to be defending her title, but Tara as well, because she can lose it without being pinned. Love said that she didn't like that, but that's the rules of the match. She said Tara and herself want to get their hands on the Knockouts Tag Team
belts and predicted new champions. She said she could use the cage to throw Madison Rayne and Velvet Sky into the cage and when the Beautiful People left the ring, they could be "one angry mess." OK promo, although nowhere near the level of anger or intensity you'd expect out of a babyface going for revenge in a cage.

After an Angle vs. Anderson video package, Jeremy Borash interviewed Ken Anderson backstage. Anderson glared at Borash when he was introduced and told him to shut up. Anderson said he's rarely a man of few words but he has little to say because he has the key to the cage and showed it off. Anderson said he wanted to apologize in advance because fans are expecting a five star mat classic and some blood, but he doesn't have to beat Kurt Angle, just walk through a door. He said even Borash could walk through a door. Anderson said that he has his gameplan and he's going to walk out the door, and call for the mic and say, "MISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTERRRRRRR........" then got very low and said, "You know." He walked off and kept returning on camera as Borash tried to finish the segment, but never said his name. Finally, an intimidated Borash said, "Mister Anderson....Anderson" quietly.

TNA announced that Doug Williams was stripped of the X-Division champion.

TNA then announced Sean Waltman no showed.

Christy Hemme interviewed Team 3D. Brother Ray asked Devon how hot Christy Hemme was and handed her his hotel room key. Ray then cut into a promo saying they won the NWA and TNA Tag Team championships at Lockdown in the past. He said they were going to continue that tonight and get rid of Hall, Nash and Waltman from TNA. Ray said they have a surprise tonight that they are going to spring on the Band on the way to the ring tonight. He made a guarantee that someone is going through a table.

Jeremy Borash interviewed TNA President Dixie Carter, who introduced several members of the military in attendance. She thanked the military for their support. Carter put over St. Louis and yesterday's Fan Interaction event. Carter plugged Monday's Impact and the new timeslot. Borash asked her to predict who was winning the Lethal Lockdown tonight. She said she didn't know but one of the servicemen predicted Team Hogan.

TNA LockDown
The PPV opened with the usual video package, including the "voice" of the steel cage warning all to fear him.

Mike Tenay and Taz announced that Doug Williams was stripped of the X-Division championship and that Sean Waltman no showed. Mike Tenay then slid into storyline, noting that Eric Bischoff was at the Fan Interaction event yesterday, but didn't interact with Hulk Hogan. Today, there's been no sign of Bischoff in the building.

Lethal Lockdown Advantage
Rob Van Dam vs. James Storm

Backstage
Christy Hemme interviewed Hulk Hogan. Hogan ran down all the things that have happened to his team in the last few weeks, but the fact they are all in the building tonight means they are going to tear down the house and leave their mark. Hogan said that RVD pinning James Storm brings them a ray of sunshine through the clouds. Hogan said that if Team Flair wins tonight, it's time for Hogan to "pack his bags" and leave TNA. Hemme said that he doesn't mean that. Hogan said that if Flair's team wins, there's nothing "left" for TNA and nothing "left for my guys." Hemme asked about Eric Bischoff. Hogan said that when he came to TNA, he thought Bischoff could help him, but now he's over it and "it's out of his hands."
