During Lockdown and iMPACT!'s taping the following day, TNA had to face a numerous amount of injuries:
James Storm
James Storm probably suffered some kind of rib injury at Lockdown. Nothing has been confirmed and nothing is known about the how serious the injury is.
The Pope
Another one not so lucky during Lockdown appears to be The Pope who suffered a legit shoulder injury during the pay-per-view. Here too, no word yet on how serious the injury is.
Angelina Love
Angelina Love suffered an injury during a match at Tuesday's iMPACT! taping in Orlando. Her arm was apparently caught in Tara's knee brace. The injury appears to be a partial bicep tear and complete ulnar collateral ligament tear. Sources state that the recovery will take between 3-4 weeks.
Dixie Carter commented about this injury on her Twitter: "HATE these reports. Angelina Love suffered a partial bicep tear & complete ulnar collateral ligament tear at iMPACT taping. Out a few weeks."
Daffney
Daffney suffered a serious injury during a match taking place at iMPACT!'s taping in Orlando.
Daffney was wrestling a local wrestler by the name of Miss Betsy (also known as "Sister Ophelia" in Wrestlicious where she is the manager of "The Naughty Girls"), who is believed to be a student from the Team 3D Wrestling Academy. The local wrestler pinned Daffney after a sitout powerbomb.
This move left Daffney motionless after taking the bump and stayed in the ring for twenty minutes before being stretchered out and taken to a local hospital via ambulance.
Company personnel had to remove the ring ropes in order to allow EMTs more space to transport her away.
Dixie Carter issued a statement via her Twitter about this accident too: "Daffney injured in a dark match tonight. Taken to hospital in ambulance. She will be ok. Will let you know updates once I confirm", and later posted that "Daffney has been released from the hospital. She has a deeply bruised sternum & a severe stinger (temp spinal trauma) but no nerve damage."
Lee South
TNA photographer Lee South was involved in a car accident over the weekend, injuring his chest and shoulder. For this reason, South missed Lockdown and Monday's live taping and was replaced by veteran photographer George Tahinos.

This is the sacrifice wrestlers some times have to make to offer good matches. I hate injuries in wrestling, especially when they happen to good performers.
