was thrown around prior to the event. TNA created a section covering the event on their official website prior to the event. On the April 8, 2005 episode of TNA's television program TNA Impact!
, Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes
announced that all matches at Lockdown would be held inside a six sided steel structure known as the Six Sides of Steel. TNA followed up with a press release through their website confirming this. TNA issued a parental advisory
a few days after the announcement due to violence associated with steel cage matches. A thirty-minute pre-show was planned before the spectacle featuring a Three Way Tag Team match between 3Live Kru
(Ron Killings
and Konnan
), David Young
and Lex Lovett
, and The Naturals
(Andy Douglas
and Chase Stevens
).
. Wrestlers portrayed villains
, heroes
, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated into a wrestling match or series of matches. Every match was contested inside the Six Sides of Steel.
Before all matches were announced to be held inside the Six Sides of Steel, TNA advertised that only two would be under such rules. These two matches later became the headlining bouts for the card. The first was announced on the March 25 episode of Impact! as Team Nash (Kevin Nash
, Sean Waltman
, and Diamond Dallas Page
) versus Team Jarrett
(Jeff Jarrett
, Monty Brown
, and The Outlaw
). Abyss versus A.J. Styles
for a future NWA World Heavyweight Championship
match was the second announced on the April 1 episode of Impact!, which became the main event of the gathering.
The storyline behind Styles versus Abyss began at TNA's Against All Odds
PPV event on February 13, where Abyss defeated Jeff Hardy
in a Full Metal Mayhem match to earn a future NWA World Heavyweight Championship title shot. During a backstage segment on the February 18 episode ofImpact!, Abyss gave the title match contract to Traci
, wanting it given to Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes as she was trying to become Rhodes' personal assistant at the time. On the March 25 episode of Impact!, Abyss tried to retrieve his contract from now co-assistant to Rhodes, Traci. This led to a brawl with Styles as he tried to defend Traci and co-assistant Trinity
as they fled in fear from Abyss. The match was announced the next week on the April 1 episode of Impact!. Rhodes announced on the April 8 episode of Impact! that the winner of the bout would get their title shot at TNA's Hard Justice
PPV event on May 15.
Team Nash versus Team Jarrett began on the March 18 episode of Impact! when Nash requested a six man tag team cage match at Lockdown from Rhodes. The following week Rhodes granted the request and officially announced it for the Lockdown card. On the April 8 episode of Impact!, Rhodes announced that the encounter was now a Lethal Lockdown match, in which weapons were legal and one wrestler from each team started the match, then the other members from each team entered at time intervals until all wrestlers were involved in the bout so a pinfall or submission could occur. The storyline behind this encounter revolved around Jarrett and his reign as NWA World Heavyweight Champion. At Against All Odds, Jarrett successfully defended the title against Nash, in which Waltman and The Outlaw interfered aiding Nash and Jarrett, respectfully. At TNA's previous PPV event Destination X
on March 13, Jarrett defended the title against Page, in which Brown turned on Page by interfering and helping Jarrett retain the title.
Elix Skipper
challenged Christopher Daniels
for the TNA X Division Championship
at Lockdown. The build to this encounter began on the March 18 episode ofImpact!, when Skipper interrupted Daniels while he made a speech and hinted at a future match. On the March 25 episode of Impact!, TNA commentator Mike Tenay
announced that a four way elimination match involving Chris Sabin
, Michael Shane
, Skipper, and Petey Williams
would be held on the April 1 episode of Impact! to determine Daniels' opponent for the title at Lockdown. Skipper went on to win the match the following week, earning the opportunity to challenge for the title. The main storyline surrounding this match was that Daniels and Skipper use to be tag team partners as part of the group Triple X
, which disbanded after losing a Six Sides of Steel Cage match against America's Most Wanted
(Chris Harris
and James Storm
) at TNA's Turning Point
PPV event on December 5, 2004.
Jeff Hardy fought Raven in a Six Sides of Steel Tables match at Lockdown. On the March 25 episode of Impact!, Raven offered Hardy an alliance, which Hardy turned down. On the April 1 episode of Impact!, Raven attacked Hardy during an incident between Hardy and Abyss. Rhodes announced that the two would face at Lockdown in a Six Sides of Steel Tables match on the April 8 episode of Impact!.
, which lasted six minutes and thirty-four seconds. 3Live Kru were the victors in the contest after Killings gained the pinfall following forcing Young's face into the mat.
and Don West
were the commentators for the telecast. Jeremy Borash
and David Penzer
were ring announcers for the event. Andrew Thomas, Rudy Charles
, and Mark "Slick" Johnson participated as referees
for the encounters. Besides employees appearing in a wrestling role, Kevin Nash, Coach D'Amore
, A-1
, Traci, Trinity, and Dusty Rhodes all appeared on camera, either in backstage or ringside segments. TNA announced via their official website a few days prior to the event that Kevin Nash would be unable to appear in the Lethal Lockdown match due to a staph infection. This was explained at the start of the telecast as well as that Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes would announce Nash's replacement later during the event.
The show opened with a Six Sides of Steel Tag Team Cage match match pitting the team of Apolo
and Sonny Siaki
against Chris Candido and Lance Hoyt, which lasted six minutes and fifty-eight seconds. This was originally promoted as a bout between Hoyt and Apolo, but was changed at the event. During the opening minutes, Candido suffered a bad fall and was helped to the backstage area. Siaki and Apolo were the victors of the contest after Siaki performed a splash from the top of a padded turnbuckle
on Hoyt.
Dustin Rhodes fought Bobby Roode, who was accompanied by Coach D'Amore and A-1, in what was billed as a Prince of Darkness match next. The duration of the bout was fifteen minutes and twenty seconds. The rules to the contest were that there would be three falls, the winner of two was the victor, however the third fall would be contested under blindfold match rules, in which both wrestlers wore hoods over their heads. The first fall was the result of Roode performing a roll-up pin. The second occurred when Dustin forced Roode face-first into the mat from the top rope. During the third fall, both wrestler wore black hoods, which impaired their vision. As a result, Dustin accidentally knocked the referee unconscious in storyline terms. This allowed D'Amore to open the cage door and pass Roode a steel folding chair
, which Roode used to hit Dustin with, but accidentally struck D'Amore instead. Dustin then grabbed the chair and struck Roode with it, which gave him the pinfall as the referee came too.
TNA held the first-ever Xscape match between Shocker, Michael Shane (who was accompanied Trinity), Sonjay Dutt
, and Chris Sabin in the following bout. It lasted fifteen minutes and forty-two seconds. In this match, the four competitors fought until two were eliminated by pinfall or submission; the two remaining wrestlers then fought to escape from the cage, with the first to do so the winner. Dutt was the first eliminated after Shocker slammed him into the steel cage. After this elimination, Trinity climbed up to the top of the cage and performed a backflip
off the top onto the three wrestlers below. Traci then entered the arena and forced Trinity to the backstage area. The second eliminated was Shane, after Sabin forced him back-first into the mat with his signature maneuver the Cradle Shock. This led to the two fighting to escape the cage, which Shocker did first, thus winning the contest.
The fourth encounter was a Six Sides of Steel Tables match between Jeff Hardy and Raven, which lasted eleven minutes and fifty-one second. In a tables match, two opponents fight until one is forced through a table by the other. At one point during the contest, Hardy laid Raven on a table then acceded to the top of the cage. Then followed by jumping off and performing a front-flip towards Raven, who moved out of the way causing Hardy to crash through the table. Due to not being forced through by Raven, the match continued until Hardy laid Raven on a stack of four tables. Followed by jumping off the top of the cage onto Raven in a seated position
and forcing him through all the tables, thus winning the encounter.
America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris and James Storm) defended the NWA World Tag Team Championship
against Team Canada
(Eric Young
and Petey Williams), who were accompanied by A-1, in a Six Sides of Steel Strap match next. It lasted fourteen minutes even. In a strap match, wrestlers are attached by a strap for the duration of the match, however in this match it was used mainly as a weapon. AMW retained the titles after forcing Williams into the mat by performing their signature maneuver the Death Sentence.
The TNA X Division Championship was defended in a bout which last fifteen minutes and twenty-eight seconds between then-champion Christopher Daniels and Elix Skipper. During the encounter, Daniels performed his signature backflip the Best Moonsault Ever on Skipper, which earned him a near-fall. Skipper later jumped off the top of the cage and bashed Daniels in the back of the head with his forearm. This also gained Skipper a near-fall. Daniels went on to perform his signature maneuver the Angel Wings on Skipper forcing him face-first into the mat, which allowed him to gain the pinfall and retain the title.
Team Nash (Diamond Dallas Page, Sean Waltman, and an unknown member) fought Team Jarrett (Jeff Jarrett, Monty Brown, and The Outlaw) in the first-ever three-on-three Lethal Lockdown match, which ran fifteen minutes and thirty-five seconds. Waltman and Jarrett started the match fighting through the crowd before entering the cage. After five minutes, The Outlaw joined the match helping Jarrett attack Waltman. The odds even upped after Diamond Dallas Page entered the match two minutes later attacking Jarrett and The Outlaw with a cane
. Following another two minutes, Brown joined the fray finishing out Team Jarrett and threw Waltman into the cage wall. The final member of Team Nash was revealed after the final two minutes, as B.G. James
was thrown into the mix which allowed a pinfall or submission to occur. Brown gained a near-fall for Team Jarrett on James after forced him into a trash can with signature maneuver the Pounce. Eventually, Waltman performed a move called a hurricanrana on Brown, leading to the pinfall and victory.
The main event was between A.J. Styles and Abyss, in which the winner received an NWA World Heavyweight Championship match at Hard Justice. Its duration was eighteen minutes even. The match began on the outside as Styles performed a front-flip onto Abyss, who was standing in the door-way of the cage. Later, as Styles was about to enter the cage, Abyss slammed the door twice into Styles, with the second hitting him in the face, causing him to crash to the floor and bleed from the forehead. During the contest, Abyss used a steel chain as a weapon to help open up Styles' wound more. At one point, Abyss opened a bag and poured a large number of thumbtacks onto the mat. He then proceed to try and slam Styles into them. However, Styles countered and slammed Abyss face-first into the tacks instead with his signature maneuver the Styles Clash. Near the end of the contest, Styles climbed the steel cage and stood on the top, however Abyss grabbed and threw the referee
into the cage wall, causing Styles to fall and barely hang on. Abyss then followed by climbing the cage and hung Styles by the neck for a brief time with the steel chain. This followed with Styles performing a sunset flip powerbomb and slamming Abyss into the tacks back-first. He followed by covering for the three count and becoming the victor of the encounter, thus earning his future title match.
writer Jason Clevett rated the entire event a 6 out of 10, which was lower than the 8 out of 10 given to the 2006 Lockdown event
by Chris Sokol. A rating was not given to TNA's previous event Destination X, however Clevett gave a rating of 7 out of 10 in his review of TNA's Against All Odds. Compared to rival World Wrestling Entertainment's WrestleMania 21
PPV event held on April 4, Lockdown was rated lower as WrestleMania was given a 7 out of 10 by Dale Plummer and Nick Tylwalk. Regrading the overall event, Clevett felt the all cage match format was "too much of a good thing". He went on to state that by the end of the event he "was tired of seeing the cage", however that Styles and Abyss "quickly brought my interest back with a brutal and fun bout that ended off the show on a positive note." When speaking of the TNA X Division Championship match, Clevett wrote that he felt it "was technically a very good match," but he "expected more considering the talent involved." He, however, felt that the psychological aspect was "excellent" regrading the two former Triple X partners countering each other's moves. Clevett's highest match rating of 8.5 out of 10 was given to the main event, while his lowest of 2 out of 10 was given to the Prince of Darkness match. The Lethal Lockdown match was given the rank 5 out of 10, while the X Division Title match was given an 8 out of 10. Wade Keller
of the Pro Wrestling Torch rated the main event and the X Division Championship match 3 and a half stars out of 5, while the Lethal Lockdown match was given 2 and three-fourths out of 5. The Prince of Darkness match was given the lowest ranking, at a fourth of a star. Keller commented on the main event as not being "bad at all, but not quite at a four-star level." He felt that if there had not been "any other cage matches or stunt bumps, it might have been four-stars-plus." Regrading the Lethal Lockdown match, Keller believed the bout " felt rushed." As for the X Division Championship defense, Keller stated that it was a "good match." When speaking on Candido's injury, Keller stated it was "absolutely brutal looking" and felt it was an "obvious full snapping of his ankle bone." In a review by Ronnie LaFianza for the website 411Mania, Lockdown was rated an overall 8 out of 10. The main event was given 4 and three-fourths stars out of 5, the Lethal Lockdown match 2 and a half stars, and the X Division Championship defense 3 and a half stars. LaFianza felt the event "just seemed to get better and better as it went on," however he felt it was a "pretty average PPV leading up into the main event." On September 20, 2005, TNA Home Video
released the event in a DVD boxset called "TNA Anthology: The Epic Set", including TNA's November 2004 PPV event, Victory Road
, and the 2004 Turning Point event. TNA released a DVD counting down the top 50 moments in their history in 2007, with Lockdown being the first all steel cage PPV listed as number 23.
After Lockdown on the April 29 episode of Impact!, Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes announced that A.J. Styles would face Jeff Jarrett for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Hard Justice with Tito Ortiz
as the Special Guest Referee. Styles went on to Hard Justice to defeat Jarrett and win the championship. Styles held the title until TNA's Slammiversary PPV event on June 19, where he lost the title in a King of the Mountain match
to Raven, which also involved Abyss, Sean Waltman, and Monty Brown.
Raven continued his feud with Jeff Hardy following Lockdown. On the May 13 episode of Impact!, it was announced that Raven would face Hardy in a Clockwork Orange House of Fun match at Hard Justice. Hardy ended up not appearing at the event; Raven instead faced and defeated Waltman in the encounter. Raven then replaced Jarrett in the King of the Mountain match at Slammiversary, where he won the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.

Regrading the overall event, Clevett felt the all cage match format was "too much of a good thing".

When speaking of the TNA X Division Championship match, Clevett wrote that he felt it "was technically a very good match," but he "expected more considering the talent involved." He, however, felt that the psychological aspect was "excellent" regrading the two former Triple X partners countering each other's moves. Clevett's highest match rating of 8.5 out of 10 was given to the main event, while his lowest of 2 out of 10 was given to the Prince of Darkness match.

The Prince of Darkness match was given the lowest ranking, at a fourth of a star. Keller commented on the main event as not being "bad at all, but not quite at a four-star level." He felt that if there had not been "any other cage matches or stunt bumps, it might have been four-stars-plus." Regrading the Lethal Lockdown match, Keller believed the bout " felt rushed." As for the X Division Championship defense, Keller stated that it was a "good match." When speaking on Candido's injury, Keller stated it was "absolutely brutal looking" and felt it was an "obvious full snapping of his ankle bone." In a review by Ronnie LaFianza for the website 411Mania, Lockdown was rated an overall 8 out of 10. The main event was given 4 and three-fourths stars out of 5, the Lethal Lockdown match 2 and a half stars, and the X Division Championship defense 3 and a half stars.
