TNA Lockdown

Posted Monday, March 17, 2008

In the world of professional wrestling, a cage match adds excitement and a hint of doom to the contest. Usually the cage match is the main event, the reason most people watch anyway. But what happens when every single match is inside a cage? You get one of the most amazing pay-per-views in wrestling history, that's what. TNA Wrestling will present Lockdown on April 13, 2008 from Lowell, Massachusetts.

As someone who had the privilage of attending Lockdown 2007 last year (sitting front row!) I can honestly say the excitement level is amazing as these gifted athletes put on one amazing show, using the cage as a platform (sometimes literally) to elevate their careers to new heights (no pun intended). This year will feature the standard Lethal Lockdown match pitting Team Cage against Team Tomko and the match that everybody has been clamoring for for some time now, the TNA World Heavyweight Championship match between Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe! As always more information can be found at this link to TNA Wrestling's website.
