(Contains TNA Spoilers) Who will join team TNA in the lethal lockdown match?

So two new matches have been officially announced for Lockdown (March 10) - Bully Ray v Jeff Hardy for the TNA world heavyweight title and Kurt Angle v Wes Brisco. This has caught me by surprise as I was expecting a sort of TNA dream team captained by Sting to feature in the staple Lethal Lockdown match. Now that Bully and Angle are involved in other matches who do you think Sting will call upon to join Team TNA? I would expect them to be faces so would think Samoa Joe to make the team as well as possibly James Storm but who else? Will they keep Magnus face after his UK run? I expect Roode and Aries to defend their tag titles against Hernandez & Chavo, RVD will no doubt defend the X-Division title against someone like Kenny King or Christian York. I can't see Zema Ion being involved in the Lethal Lockdown or Kazaniels due to the fact that they are heels. Since the Shield went over Team WWE marine commandos at EC, I can now see an Aces & 8s victory on the cards, especially as they've not got a good track record yet in TNA. I see Aces & 8s winning and TNA dragging this out until BFG.

Joseph Parks would be an obvious choice for me.

Parks
Sting
Joe
Magnus (who was taken out by them)

Thanks for the spoiler alerts

I have changed the thread title Antlord - I am sure it was unintentional

Thanks

cheers Adam, apologies.

Hadn't considered Park, in his current character he is very green for a Lethal Lockdown match, which would kayfabe have alot riding on it. Nevertheless both Parks and Magnus have a legitimate reason to be included in the match with their history with Aces & 8s.

Who will be on the Aces and Eights team?

AS it is 4 PPV a year, I wouldnt be surprised if Devon defended the TV title against Joe in a separate match.

Doc, Bischoff, Knox and Anderson

vs

Magnus, Sting, Parks and a returning Jeff Jarrett - you heard it here first!

Doc, Knox, Anderson, Jarett

vs

Sting, Magnus, A returning Abyss and Samoa Joe

on the Lockdown website it has Devon as leader for team Aces & 8s, so I don't think he'll be defending his TV title.

Most likely:

Devon
DOC
Knox
Anderson

If Team Aces & 8s are going to win or look as if they can win then they will need all their best wrestlers.

Team TNA - Sting, Joe, Joseph Park and Storm/Magnus. Who ever TNA creative believe in more. Should be Magnus as he was attacked but Storm seems the more popular choice. Unless they have both Storm and Magnus instead of Park, this can then lead to the return on Abyss turning on TNA?

Aces and Eights - Devon, DOC, Knox and Bischoff. Bischoff just because he has a little storyine going with Joe. I reckon Anderson may see singles action.

Storm seems to have lost direction since losing his No.1 contender spot at Final Resolution last year. Should he be put into the Lethal Lockdown match then this theoretically gives him some direction as they can continue with individual feuds after Lockdown.

I see Bischoff trying to get involved in the Brisco match tbh, screwing Angle out of a win somehow. Now that TNA only have 4 PPVs a year, I see Lockdown as a transitional PPV in many ways, setting up feuds and storylines going into Slammiversary, which is why I predict a successful night for Aces & 8s.

I also don't see Bully Ray winning the TNA world title clean, he's either going to turn heel or lose clean. I just can't see Bully headlining and main eventing Slammiversary. Hardy would be a much bigger draw for TNA's second largest PPV.
