Episode Title: “Still Crazy After All These Years”
The show started with Jeff Jarrett coming down and naming A.J. Styles the captain of the team for the main event match at Lockdown. A.J. talked Jarrett into being the captain instead. So now the team seems to be Jarrett, Styles, and Samoa Joe with the fourth member to be named later. Scott Steiner came down to the ring to sort of invite Jarrett to become part of the Main Event Mafia, but Jarrett didn’t make a decision, even after Steiner spoke about his late wife and kids. There is a match later in the night between Styles and Steiner.Team Lethal Consequences (Jay Lethal & Consequences Creed) and LAX (Homicide & Hernandez)
vs.
Sheik Abdul Bashir, No Limit, and Kiyoshi
Bashir hit Creed with a DDT and got the pinfall.
After an interview with Mick Foley we head to a feature I was unaware of. “Dr. Stevie”! Odd choice for a shrink for anyone really. Abyss apparently is seeing him though. Stevie smacks him around a bit after Abyss points out he has a match with Matt Morgan at Lockdown where the winner is the first to make his opponent bleed. Good to see Stevie Richards can still get work.
Big Rocco & Sallie Boy aka Main Event Mafia Security
vs.
Team 3D, Brother Ray & Brother Devon
Beer money, Inc. was out at the commentators table for a distraction. It isn’t often that Brother Ray gets to face someone in worse shape than he is. Big Rocco definitely fits that description.
they hit the 3D and got the pin on Sallie Boy. After the match Rocco hit them from behind with a chair. Beer Money then got in the ring carrying both the TNA and New Japan belts. Roode took the chair from Rocco and then jabbed it into his stomach. After getting security out of the ring they handed Team 3D their belts. A strange and unexpected bit of help.
Out came the Main Event Mafia so Kurt Angle can publicly apologize to Sting. Sting listens then starts to walk away, but Kevin Nash stops him. Mick Foley interrupts things from up in the rafters to point out Sting has a match against Samoa Joe tonight.
Back to Dr. Stevie. this time he is with the female wrestler previously known as The Governor. She seems to have snapped since the Beautiful People gave her a haircut.
Madison Rain
vs.
Taylor Wilde
The Beautiful People mentioned earlier in the night that Wilde would be getting a haircut. Wilde got the pin for the win. The Beautiful People moved in but couldn’t keep her in the ring long enough to cut her hair. They sent Madison after her. they caught up with her during the commercial and cut off some of her hair.
Lockdown Advantage Match #1
Scott Steiner vs. A.J. Styles
After some interference from both Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett, Steiner got the pin. This gives the Main Event Mafia a 1-0 advantage in the best of three series to decide which team will have a one man advantage throughout the match at Lockdown.
Samoa Joe vs. Sting
Joe didn’t care about winning, he just wanted to beat on the Main Event Mafia. He took out two referees along the way. Booker T came in to help Sting, but Joe took him out too. Sharmell covered Booker when Joe went out to get a chair. Joe considered hitting her, but instead got out of the ring and began walking away. He stopped, grabbed Sharmell and carried her out over his shoulder.
