TNA X-Division Title Xscape Steel Cage Match
Jay Lethal (c) vs. Shark Boy vs. Curry Man vs. Sonjay Dutt vs. Johnny Devine vs. Consequences Creed
A cruiserweight spot fest mostly. The cheating ending was sort of a let down but the spots made up for it.
3 / 5
Reverse Steel Cage Match
Traci Brooks vs. Jacqueline vs. Christy Hemme vs. Angelina Love vs. Velvet Sky vs. Salinas vs. Rhaka Khan vs. Roxxi Laveaux
This was fine. Short and nothing too great.
2 / 5
Steel Cage Match
BG James vs. Kip James
Two guys who played off knowing each other and tried to have a good match. It was fine and thankfully didn’t overstay its welcome.
2 / 5
Steel Cage Six Way Tag Team Match
Petey Williams & Scott Steiner vs. Kaz & Super Eric vs. Black Reign & Rellik vs. The Latin American Exchange (Hernandez & Homicide) vs. The Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin)
vs. The Rock ‘n Rave Infection (Jimmy Rave & Lance Hoyt)
Wasn’t a fan of this at all. Machine Gun going out early was off and the stipulation here was awful.
1 / 5
Steel Cage Tag Team Match
Gail Kim & ODB vs. Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed
This was okay. Short-ish and nothing amazing.
2 / 5
Steel Cage Mixed Tag Team Match
Booker T & Sharmell vs. Payton Banks & Robert Roode
This felt like a match where neither guy worked well with the other.
1.5 / 5
Lethal Lockdown Steel Cage Match
Team Cage (Christian Cage, Kevin Nash, Matt Morgan, Rhino & Sting) vs. Team Tomko (AJ Styles, Brother Devon, Brother Ray, James Storm & Tomko) (w/Jacqueline)
This was a ton of fun. Mix of old school style guys and the new high flyers. A lot of fun spots and action here.
4.25 / 5
TNA World Heavyweight Title Steel Cage Match
Kurt Angle (c) vs. Samoa Joe
I’m indifferent about the MMA style here. I found it rarely worked the way they I assume intended it to. This was a fine match though and gave Joe his title win against Kurt.
3.5 / 5
