Jeremy Borash and Shane Douglas welcome us to the show and send us to Mike Tenay and Don West. Tenay and West talk about some of the matches we are going to see tonight before sending us to our first pre show match.
MATCH 1: David Young and Lex Lovett vs. Konnan and Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. The Naturals with a fully recovered Chris Candido. Konnan gets the mike and does his standard pre match schtick. Young and Konnan start us out. Young pushes Konnan into Chase Stevens, who holds him from the apron. Young tries to punch Konnan, but Konnan ducks and Young hits Chase. Young goes to hit Konnan again, but Konnan moves and Young almost hits Andy Douglas. Konnan uses this to slam Andy and Youngs heads together, then he pulls off his shoes and throws them at Young and Lovett. With some help from the Naturals Young takes control and tags in Chase, but Chase turns on Young and knocks him out of the ring. Konnan manages to tag in Lex Lovett and he comes in and hits chase with some punches and suplexes. Chase gets to his corner and tags in Andy, and they double team Lovett. After beating up Lovett Andy tags back in Chase and they double team Lovett some more. Lovett reverses a slam and gets a tag to Young, who stomps Chase and gets a two count. Young chokes Chase on the ropes, then slingshots over the ropes to drop a leg across Chases head. Young lands badly outside the ring, and when he gets back in he only gets a 2 count on Chase. Lovett comes back in, and goes for a top rope move, but Andy shakes the rope and Lovett ends up crotched. Chase climbs up and hits a superplex and both men are down. Lovett crawls and gets a tag to Konnan, who stomps Chase then tags in Killings. Killings comes in a ball of fire, clearing the ring. The Naturals distract the ref, and Buck Quartermain comes in and attacks Killings. Buck is about to use a chair on Killings, when Konnan jumps him from behind, and Killings hits a sitdown pedigree on Lovett for the win.
WINNERS: RON "THE TRUTH" KILLINGS and KONNAN
Borash and Douglas sit in the ring and run down some of the matches for us, and talk about the X Division Title match between Chris Daniels and Elix Skipper. Ring techs come out and begin to set up the steel cage.
Shane Douglas is backstage, and Team Canada and Americas Most Wanted are having a wild brawl. Jeremy Borash is still in the ring, and he talks about some more of the matches we are going to see tonight. Mike Tenay and Don West remind us that the winner of the AJ Styles and Abyss match will face Jeff Jarrett for the title next month. Didnt Abyss win a title shot back at Against All Odds that he has not used yet? Maybe that could result in a triple threat next month is AJ wins tonight. That would be cool.
Back to Borash in the ring, and he gives us the final hard sell for the PPV, and here we go!
A video package opens the show, showing the steel cage and talking about the brutality of it. Clips are shown of some more the best steel cage moments, and some great shots of the TNA wrestlers.
Mike Tenay and Don West welcome us to the show and continue to talk about how dangerous the steel cage is. They talk some more about the matches tonight, and we are shown footage of Kevin Nash backstage. They show us his staph infection, and we are told that Kevin Nash will not be able to compete. Dusty Rhodes will be responsible for choosing a replacement for Nash in the main event tonight.
MATCH 1: LANCE HOYT and CHRIS CANDIDO vs. APOLLO and SONNY SIAKI. Hot and Candido come out first, and Hoyt climbs the cage and poses for the crowd. Hoyt gets a pretty good reaction. I think this guy should go face soon. Apollo and Siaki dont get half the reaction Hoyt gets. Hoyt goes face, Siaki goes heel, GOLD. Siaki and Apollo try to get the crowd going, but the crowd just chants Hoyt. Candido and Siaki start us out, and Siaki throws Candido around. Siaki pins Candido after a hiptoss and side kick, but Hoyt breaks it up and the crowd is now chanting Chris Candido. Candido tags in Hoyt and the crowds Hoyt chants are louder than ever. Siaki tags in Apollo, and he and Hoyt trade chops and punches. Hoyt hits Apollo with a knee o the gut, then a poke to the eyes. The crowd loves it. Apollo comes back with a massive chop, then ducks a clothesline from Hoyt and hits a flying back elbow. Apollo tags in Siaki and they double team Hoyt and Siaki gets a near fall. We are shown Chris Candido being taken out by trainers, West says his leg may be broken. Siaki watches Candido being taken away, and Hoyt hits him with a huge boot. Near fall. Hoyt pounds on Siaki, then hits a huge slam, and climbs to the second rope and hits an awesome moonsault, but Apollo breaks up the pin. Hoyt fall away slams Siaki into the cage. Siaki hits a nice kick on Hoyt, but Hoyt wont let up on the offense and stretches Siaki in the ropes, before splashing Siaki against the cage. Hoyt chant is HUGE now. Hoyt with another slam, then climbs to the top rope. Siaki is up, and grabs Hoyt and hits a german suplex! Hoyt flips over in the air and lands on his face! Both men are down and a HOLY SHIT chant from the crowd. I have a felling that wont be the last tonight. Siaki tags in Apollo who takes it to Hoyt. Apollo hits a massive superkick, only gets a near fall. Apollo works over Hoyts knee, then picks up Hoyt and hits a TKO. Apollo slams Hoyt, and Siaki hits a splash off the top rope. Siaki gets the win.
WINNERS: APOLLO and SONNY SIAKI
After the match The Naturals come out and give Hoyt shit for losing. We are told that Candido does have a broken leg. Hoyt grabs Chase Stevens throat, and Andy Douglas attacks him from behind. They double team Hoyt and throw him into the cage. Hoyt tries to fight back, but the Naturals hit the Natural Disaster and leave Hoyt laying in the cage.
