My Weekly TNA Catch-up, Impact 2nd Apr 09 reviewed

Show opens with Jeff Jarrett telling you who will be Captain in place of Samoa Joe and it will be AJ Styles. Styles turns down the job saying he'll be on the team but it should be Jarrett as Captain. Scott Steiner comes out to give Jeff a history lesson & talk about friendship.
8 Man Tag Match - Lethal Consequences & LAX vs Kiyoshi, No Limits & Sheik Abdul Bashir. Homicide & Bashir started this off, this wasn't a great match with much worth mentioning. Bashir took the win off a DDT on Creed.
Tag Match - MEM Security (Big Rocco & Sally Boy) vs Team 3D. Due to a distraction by Beer Money at the colour desk Rocco & Sal jumped 3D from behind before the bell taking the advantage. Not a great match by anyones standards, Team 3D took the win with a 3D on Sal. Beer Money saved Team 3D from a post match beatdown.
Kurt Angle calls out Sting to offer an apology. Daffney FINALLY makes her return as herself on the couch of Dr Stevie.
Madison Rayne (with The Beautiful People) vs Taylor Wilde. Not a great match, Mike Tenay managed to get Taylor Wildes name wrong calling her Madison Rayne then correcting himself. Wilde hit a nice bridging suplex for a near fall and took the win off a weird single leg roll up. Wilde bolted from the ring to avoid the promised haircut but got beaten down in the backstage area then had the haircut.
Lethal Lockdown Advantage Challenge Round 1 - Scott Steiner vs AJ Styles. Basically the object here is to get the advantage of 1st Team into the cage at the Lockdown PPV so your team always has the numbers advantage. The match was pretty much all Styles and his good moves with Steiner selling and kicking out of them, the ref bump was c**p and Angle ran down to give Steiner a chair whilst the ref was "out", Steiner took the win by DDT'ing Styles into the chair when Jarrett had him distracted. Weak match.
Sting vs Samoa Joe - This was always going to be short and c**p with less than 6 minutes of airtime and no title on the line. Joe kicked out of a Scorpion Leglock and was DQ'd by the ref for throwing him out of the way but still nailed Sting with the Muscle Buster and the rear naked choke hold, Booker T made the save but Joe ended the show by kidnapping Sharmell.
