These predictions are made without any inside knowledge of the planned match finishes. In other words, I’m guessing just like you are.

Kurt Angle vs. Samoa Joe for the TNA Title: Just how MMA will they go. That's the big question. As I reported earlier this week, Angle wants to the match to be similar to the style he used in his Global Impact match with Yuji Nagata. However, Joe didn't sound all that crazy about the MMA elements that Angle is pushing for when he previewed the match during the TNA conference call on Thursday. The UFC fan in me is interested in seeing what type of MMA-inspired match they could have, but the wrestling fan in me just wants to see two of the best pro wrestlers in the world have a great pro wrestling match. Either way, Joe wins the TNA Title.

Team Cage (Christian, Sting, Kevin Nash, Rhino, Matt Morgan) vs. Team Tomko (Tomko, A.J. Styles, Team 3D, James Storm) in a Lethal Lockdown weapons match: With this many wrestlers in the same match, you just know the creative team won't be able to stop themselves from having someone turn. Will it be revealed that Morgan agreeing to team with Christian was a big swerve? Will Nash "take the money" and turn on the babyfaces? Was that promo about doing it all for the money the swerve? Honestly, I just hope they have a straight forward brawl. The hype for this match has been really good and it's certainly been established as being worthy of the co-main event billing. Babyface teams are supposed to win these matches, but this is TNA so I'll take the heels as a result of some type of turn.

Black Machismo vs. Sonjay Dutt vs. Johnny Devine vs. Shark Boy vs. Consequences Creed vs. Curry Man in an Xscape match for the X Division Title: Sonjay has been teasing a heel turn for months. He's a metrosexual character who is cock-blocking his buddy Machismo. Good lord. I hate what the X Division has become. They've taken the focus away from having great matches and placed it on comedy. Basically, they are giving the fans who liked the original X Division the last thing they wanted to see from the division. It's a shame. Who do I think will win? Honestly, I don't care. I never felt that way about the old X Division. I just have no emotional investment in any of these characters and the title belt doesn't mean a damn thing. What a waste. I'll take Sonjay in hopes that they realize the viewers don't need another month of skits to figure out the gist of the story.

Angelina Love vs. Velvet Sky vs. Salinas vs. Rhaka Khan vs. Traci Brooks vs. Christy Hemme vs. Jacqueline vs. Roxxi Laveaux in a Queen of the Cage match: The gimmick has the women starting at ringside with the goal of being the first to climb over the cage and get inside the ring. This will be very pleasing to the men at ringside. I'll go with Traci just because, well, I don't even know why. Let's be honest, we'll all be impressed if no one gets hurt.

Booker T and Sharmell vs. Robert Roode and Payton Banks: Involving the women is doing more harm than good at this point. I like Banks as a valet, but Sharmell isn't going Booker's character much good at this point. She was spectacular in her queen role in WWE, but she makes Booker look a little henpecked in his babyface role in TNA. Good action from the men, cat fight style from the women. This should have been a singles match blowoff inside the cage. Instead, it's just another match that will probably lead to another singles match between Booker and Roode next month.

B.G. James vs. Kip James: Let's review what the Rough Cuts segments have taught us. BG doesn't care enough about his career to train properly and he hopes he can sit down with Kip afterward and work out their differences. Now that's how you sell a cage match! Like most of the matches on this show, it really doesn't matter who wins or loses. Kip wins and goes on to fulfill his goal of becoming a singles World Champion. Just kidding.

The Motor City Machine Guns vs. LAX vs. Scott Steiner and Petey Williams vs. The Rock-n-Rave Infection vs. Eric Young and Kaz vs. Black Reign and Rellik in a Cuffed in the Cage match: You'd think that Steiner and his mini would go over since he's supposed to appear in the main event next month. Plus, they should throw Petey a bone for agreeing to shave his head in an angle that didn't draw a dime.

Awesome Kong and Raisha Saeed vs. Gail Kim and ODB: My guess is that Kong does all the work while Saeed stands in the corner. How else is she going to work in that burka? It's a tag match so this could be the first time that Kong shows some type of vulnerability by doing a job to Kim or ODB. Kim has better matches with Kong, so I'm guessing she'll score the pin for her team on either Kong or Saeed.
