The TNA Lockdown pay-per-view card started to take shape yesterday on Impact.

The first three matches for the show were announced, including Matt and Jeff Hardy defending the TNA Tag Team titles against TNA World champion Nic Nemeth and his brother Ryan, Cedric Alexander vs Leon Slater for the TNA X Division title, and AJ Francis vs Elijah.

The show will have all its matches inside a cage as the company brings back the concept for the first time in a decade.

It takes place on Sunday, August 23 live from the Credit Union 1 Arena in Chicago, Illinois. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster.com.
