- We are shown the Lockdown 7 stage and a huge pyrotechnic display is set off as we are introduced to our commentary team for tonight dressed ever so dapper. Kaitlyn Khaos and Nick Simmonds are joined by XPWEW Legend Joey Styles as they introduce us to Lockdown 7: The biggest event in XPWEW history!
- Leonard McGraw enters (crowd cheers)
Leonard enters first to a great reaction from the Dubai crowd, Leonard aggressively walks out from the curtain to the huge stage and with a cold thousand mile stare peers with intensity looking through the camera at you at home as he makes thundering steps towards the ring. McGraw is all business avoiding contact from the fans reaching for a high five. McGraw steps in the ring and then runs the ropes hard as he waits for the match against GT that he's been salivating over since February when this rivalry began when Garrett and his partner Ethan Bedlam would attempt to break the arm of McGraw so after many games of cat and mouse it comes to a head tonight. Leonard made his Lockdown debut last year in a win over Jacques Dudley
- Garrett Thompson enters (crowd boos)
Garrett enters with pyro rain effect behind him as he stands still only to bust out with a burst of energy as he knocks the entrance coat off his shoulders to the ground, Ethan Bedlam picks up his entrance coat and walks to the backstage area as Garrett mouths "I can handle him myself." as Thompson makes an intense long walk to the ring for his 4th match in Lockdown history. It was in 2011 he lost a 3 way between Ruckus and Eddie Edwards, 2012 he would lose in the main event between Jake, Slayer & Chris Johnson and just last year him and Eddie Edwards came up short to the legendary team of Takanaka
