The Funks, The Briscos, Steamboat, and Jack Lanza never needed fake blood. Roman Reigns is a real bitch for not needlessly cutting his forehead open when he had a perfectly viable, safer, cleaner solution in the form of fake blood.

It looked like obvious fake blood, but real enough. It honestly doesn't have to be THAT real for me. I'm a wrestling fan, I can believe that a magic stone controls Mil Muertes' power. I can suspend my disbelief so that guys don't have to maul their own foreheads to try and sell a storyline. Agreed. Blading pisses me off so much. If you have do fake it, so be it. That I'm okay with.

Good. Fake blood makes all the sense. And even if I don't care for Roman's push, a literal blood sacrifice isn't what's needed to change my mind.
Now start padding parts of the ring to minimize the impact of big moves.

Well, it's impossible to bust open a Samoan. Excalibur would shatter into bits it it hit Roman in the head.

sigh. people aren't going to be satisfied until WWE is nothing but pillow fights. I don't think being okay with stage blood in stage combat as opposed to real blood, which carries along with it all manner of other concern, fits the leap you're making here but okay. Remember that time Bob Orton had hepatitis and didn't tell anybody then he, Randy, ad Undertaker all cut themselves open and bled all over each other? What a swell idea that was. Plus, I bet all those dudes that bladed against Abdullah the Butcher and later contracted hepatitis are sure glad they decided to gig themselves to add "realness" for the people who only seem to like wrestling because they have an insatiable bloodlust to see competitors bleed all over the place and possibly get injured but don't have the attention span to watch a combat sport with no angles.

I've said it since we started to really see the business clamp down on blading. Fake blood is absolutely the best scenario. It stops people carving their own head (stupid anyway), it prevents the spread of blood-borne diseases AND it gives us the added visual that blood gives a violent event. I still don't think it should be overused, but it is definitely something they should be doing to sell big, violent angles.

Roman Reigns is a real bitch for not needlessly cutting his forehead open when he had a perfectly viable, safer, cleaner solution in the form of fake blood. He didn't blade partly because the kayfabe injury they wanted him to have was a broken nose, so he just smeared the fake blood across his face. Ken Shamrock used to use fake blood whenever they need to have him bleed from the mouth to sell internal injuries.

He was just kinda weird like that.

Good. The idea of people cutting themselves for theatre is f***ing gross and bizarre.

Wrestling's past the point where they need to keep the charade that it's legit. Most people know what's going on, and having guys bleed for real isn't going to change how believable it is. I'm not saying that I want to see Vince come out to the ring and tell us bluntly that it's fiction (even though he did once... *ahem*), but fake blood in 2016 is fine.

It works in a segment like that where you can hide it but I don't see how it can work in a match setting. If it gets wiped off or runs off because of sweat and there is no wound or blood flow it'll look weird. Not advocating for or against it or blading or whatever, just random thought.

So does Roman and Trips get a fake fine over fake blood? They got fined 100 grand each in Monopoly money.

All of it's fake. Roman's hair is fake. Hell, Roman Reigns is fake. He's just a CGI creation played by Andy Serkis.

I'm against blading, but I'd rather have no blood at all than fake blood. This. All of those assholes who talked shit on my fake wrestling mu entire life kind of made me need real blood.

This pisses me off solely because now this will be the go to shit for every legit hard way cut, Hur Dur blood capsule.
I'm glad their being lax with showing color again real or not, Remember that Cena match that abruptly stopped because of blood and they took time away for a doctor to patch it up?
