TNA Lockdown 2026 PPV August 23rd 2026 – 8/23/26 – Full Cage Card, Start Times & How to Watch

TNA Lockdown is back for the first time in a decade this Sunday from Chicago. All matches take place inside the steel cage at Credit Union 1 Arena, with multiple championships on the line and the return of Lethal Lockdown. Here’s the venue, full timing guide including Pakistan, and how to watch the live stream.

Sunday afternoons don’t usually feel this intense, but Lockdown has always been different. TNA is bringing the event back for the first time since 2016, and the entire card is contested inside a steel cage.

TNA Lockdown 2026 takes place on Sunday, August 23 at the Credit Union 1 Arena (the old UIC Pavilion) at 525 South Racine Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. The building holds roughly 9,500 for wrestling and has a long history with the sport—WCW ran major shows there in the late ’80s and early ’90s, including Chi-Town Rumble. Doors open at 3 p.m. Central. The free Countdown to Lockdown pre-show starts at 4 p.m. CT, and the main pay-per-view begins at 5 p.m. CT (6 p.m. ET).

What’s booked so far

Every match is a cage match. The current lineup includes:

• TNA World Tag Team Championship: The Hardys (Matt & Jeff Hardy) (c) vs. the Nemeth Brothers (Nic & Ryan Nemeth)
• TNA X Division Championship – Last Man Standing: Cedric Alexander (c) vs. Leon Slater (if Slater loses, his previous reign is erased from the record books)
• TNA International Championship: Jason Hotch (c) vs. Mustafa Ali
• TNA Knockouts World Championship: Xia Brookside (c) vs. Elayna Black
• TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship: Allie & mystery partner (c) vs. The Elegance Brand (Heather by Elegance & M by Elegance)
• Escape the Cage: Moose vs. Frankie Kazarian
• Elijah vs. A.J. Francis
• Lethal Lockdown: The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson & Alisha Edwards) vs. Ricky Sosa, K.C. Navarro, Jada Stone & Fabian Aichner

Pre-show matches: Trey Miguel vs. Agent Zero and The Righteous (Vincent & Dutch) vs. Rich Swann & BDE.

The Hardys versus the Nemeths feels like the natural centerpiece, but the X-Division Last Man Standing match and the return of Lethal Lockdown give the show real weight. Expect a few more tweaks between now and Sunday—TNA has been adding details right up to the last minute.

Event details at a glance

• Date: Sunday, August 23, 2026
• Venue: Credit Union 1 Arena, 525 S. Racine Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
• Doors: 3:00 p.m. CT
• Pre-show: 4:00 p.m. CT
• Main card: 5:00 p.m. CT / 6:00 p.m. ET
• How to watch: Live on traditional PPV outlets and globally on TNA+

Chicago crowds tend to be loud, and an all-cage show usually gets them even more involved. This feels like the right place and the right time to bring Lockdown back.

Global Timing: Watch From Anywhere

If you’re watching from somewhere else, just convert from Central Time. In August the U.S. is still on daylight saving (CDT, UTC-5), so Pakistan sits ten hours ahead.

This is the first Lockdown in a decade and the first time TNA has run the Credit Union 1 Arena. Five title matches, a Lethal Lockdown, and the classic cage environment should make for a long, physical afternoon in Chicago. Grab your stream on TNA+ or traditional PPV, check the times above, and settle in. Sunday is about to get locked down.
