I'll rank it about a seven, for the ending alone.

I'll give it a five, the first half was bad the second half was great.
Better than Wrestlemania anyway.

A good main event salvaged a lackluster show.
Which still doesn't save it from a 4.

Same as I gave 'Mania, a 3 for having one great match in a sea of crap.

I gave WM a 3. I'll give Lockdown a 5. Lethal Lockdown was awesome and the other things on the show weren't completely horrible. Unlike WM, there were no BAD matches; just boring, dull, and lifeless ones.

2.
Overbooked nonsense. Boring matches aside from the main. Lots of man ass and nasty ass tan zombie bloody Flair that is sad to watch. He's literally pro wrestling's embodiment of Randy The Ram now. Terrible directing and production mishaps.
Love me some Sarah Stock despite that horrendous promo though, but thats about it. It was also nice to see Daniels do his thing again and I thought Roode was great tonight.

enjoyed it more than Wrestlemania, thought the crowd was hot, and I feel like you had some good matches in Pope/Joe and Morgan/Hernandez. Angle/Jarrett would have been great if the finish was so overbooked, and Lethal Lockdown was very good.
A couple stupid promos (Sarita's being the worse), and an overbooked undercard, but a solid ppv.

Xscape Match: 6/10 (A few good sequences, but sub-par for the X-Division; goofy finish.)
Tornado Tag Team Match: 4/10 (Boring match. Ink, Inc. need a heel turn.)
Knockouts Championship: 2/10 (A Mickie James/Madison Rayne quickie.)
Samoa Joe vs. The Pope: 6/10 (A solid match that I'd have preferred Pope to win.)
Matt Morgan vs. Hernandez : 5/10 (Morgan is the world's tallest vanilla midget.)
Jeff Jarrett vs. Kurt Angle: 7/10 (Started off slow but picked up big time in the third fall with some big time Angle spots.)
Sting (c) vs. Rob Van Dam vs. Mr. Anderson: 5/10 (Incredibly anticlimactic finish.)
Lethal Lockdown: 8/10 (Great brawling, as expected.)
Promos/Interviews/Skits: 5/10 (Nothing either noteworthy or offensive.)
Overall: 5.3/10 (Two very good matches surrounded by average matches with dubious finishes.)

I gave it a 9, but I was there in person so I might be a little biased.  |

It was a solid yet unspectacular show, but I loved loved loved the main event. Id say 6 for the show if you take away Lethal Lockdown, 7 or 8 with it. Good, but not great overall.

I thought the world title match was a little short but other than that it was okay. I've heard that it is really hard to pull off a good triple threat and I thought they were very creative with the moves especially that two man scorpion death lock by Sting. That was pretty awesome.

Lockdown as a ppv NEEDS to be done in a six sided ring. The whole aura that is got from "THE SIX SIDES OF STEEL" just isn't there when "every match is a cage match."
Not only does the six sided ring/six sided cage look impressive, but it truly set TNA apart. The fact that it also gives the ppv an MMA type of feel adds to the feel of the whole event.
I know that's not to rate the show as a whole, but it's an observation about that particular ppv brand.

Lockdown should be all Six Sides of Steel. It can also open up a few more options for the wrestlers to help set the matches apart. Also, they need to bring back all the gimmicks that were around before (Queen of the Cage, Cuffed in the Cage) to help out with diversity. "Every match in a steel cage" just isn't going to cut it. They have to get more creative with it. If they can put Ultimate X in a cage, that would be f***ing epic. |
