    Blood is just as dangerous, if not more so, than chairshots to the head.

    I don't believe so. The guys get tested for diseases. And they blade themselves. So it's not like they'd accidentally cut somewhere that they shouldn't.

            That was one of the most gruesome blade jobs I've ever seen. Muta Scale should've been renamed the Guerrero Scale.

              Blood is just as dangerous, if not more so, than chairshots to the head. That being said, blood should absolutely be used again - but only in the big/high profile matches and feuds that deserve it. We don't need people partying like Flair on Main Event... but a bloody WM match can be used to great effect.
              Some feuds just need blood. Frankly, there's not enough uniqueness to matches nowadays. Busting it out on special occasions would really help people give a **** about what they're watching.

                I can't wait for it to come overseas. I don't know anything about costs for setting up servers etc. but in my estimation they will gain a hell of a lot of subscribers outside the U.S. Definitely me for a start!

                  I'm sure we're talking about the same match, so I will ask this. On Hannibal's head near the end was that a flap of skin sticking out or a piece of bottle?

                    I've always thought blood should be used in big time feuds if possible. For instance I ideally would have Cena/Lesnar at this upcoming Summerslam be bleeding but would understand if they didnt.

                    Hell in a Cell and Last Man standing just seem weird if we know the chance of someone bleeding is extremely low.

                      That's irrelevant to the WWE allowing blood argument. It wasn't the WWE. The WWE tests. Just because some Indy promotion doesn't test doesn't mean the WWE doesn't.

                        Didn't realize how good Kurt Angle was too. (I don't watch TNA also)

                        Just watched Kurt Angle vs. Shane McMahon at KOTR 2001. Wow. What a match.

                          That's one of the matches I always tell people to watch if they're new to wrestling.

                          It's one of my favorites of all-time, including Angle vs Lesnar at Wrestlemania.

                            Watch his WM XXI match with Shawn Michaels. One of my all-time favorites.

                              I'll get to it eventually. Going in order from 1999 and on right now. Currently on Invasion 2001 right now.

                              Originally I was doing this because I wanted to follow HHH's career, but since he's hurt I mainly just watch the main events.
