McMahon more upset with Brock shoving doctor away than blood

Regarding the reports of Vince McMahon flipping out backstage over the blood in last night's Brock Lesnar vs. The Undertaker match at WWE Hell In a Cell, apparently it was not the blood that he was upset over.

A source who was watching from close to the "gorilla position" last night reported to PWInsider that Vince was not upset over the blood but he wasn't thrilled to see it either. Vince did get upset when he ordered the doctor to go in the ring to clean up some of the blood and Lesnar pushed him away. This spot was 100% shoot and something Lesnar did in the moment as he was upset with the momentum of the match being interrupted.

Regarding a possible "blade job" in last night's match, Lesnar most likely would not have needed 9 staples to close a wound from a blade. With WWE's strict policy against blading these days, Lesnar was likely busted open the hard-way.

When Lesnar and Taker returned backstage, there was no incident with Vince calling them into his office or talking down to them in front of everyone.

I would love to see him try to verbally take down either man. Brock doesn't give a f*** and Taker is Taker.

You damn right there was no incident. Who in their right mind would yell at Brock?

Having the doctor go in there DID start to ruin the momentum of the match. It's not the doctor's fault, but these guys are basically in the zone and in character, fully invested in their acting/performance roles and someone is f***ing with them. Stop f***ing with them, Vince.

These reports are usually credible.

This kind of thing will always make me think of that time Christian got busted open like two minutes into a ladder match and Shelton Benjamin just stood there like a dumbass instead of climbing up and winning.

The wrestlers hate when the Doctors stop the match and it's been that way since the Doctor was implemented. I'm all for the well being of the stars but the momentum of the match is really stopped dead and it sucks, and the crowds always shit all over it.

Brock shoving the Doctor away got one of the Pops of the night, which says it all.

I like a bit of blood in my wrestling now and again. The doctors ruin it.

Luckily they were both faces at the time so you could explain it as them just looking to have a competitive match - it would have been even dumber if one of them was heel

I would love to see Vince talk down to Lesnar and try to scold him as Lesnar counts his pay all while chuckling to himself.

I do understand why Vince sent the doctor in to help Brock since his bleeding was getting rather uncomfortable to see, but it wouldn't make sense for Brock's character to just let some guy help him when he's competing in a match.

Also, how could Brock have been busted open? It didn't look like he hit that post anywhere near hard enough to make him bleed.

I think he hit something sharp on the post.

You talk like if Vince cared who those 2 were

Also, no way that shove wasn't a work. Cole acknowledged it immediately, when it happened off camera at the time.

Honestly I think the blood was at least to some degree planned, if only because they didn't censor it in the show's opening video.

A photographer backstage actually managed to get a snap of Brock being talked down to by Vince in the Gorilla Position after the match:

Fair enough, but that's pretty lazy to just leave something sharp there if that's what it was.

They do acknowledge botches and things like that sometimes when it's a large enough part of the match. I doubt they'd ignore Brock refusing attention if it help play into the story being told.

For what it's worth one of the posts did look pretty ugly later in the match. Dunno if it's the one Brock hit but one of them looked very visibly sunken in and miscolored.

Said it at WM, I think Brock just headbutts the post as hard as he can and hopes he draws blood.

Alvarez was right about needing to see a Table For 3 with Vince, Lesnar and Taker immediately after the match was done. That would have broken all records.
