So by now everyone probably knows about the Dec-11 match against Carlito with a planned spot after the match with the referee.

Well things look like it it got to levels of outright assault, Hannibal/BloodHunter either went into business for himself or the spot just got out-of-hand. I've been reading/watching all I can about this situation. BloodHunter isn't taking any responsibility, ref definitely has staples in his head etc. I've heard about this character and only started to watch his matches with Sandman, Sabu, Haku, Davey Boy jr. etc. He's a legit big man, brutal, maybe even reckless, but I understand he may have a few screws loose? Never really followed Hannibal TV or anything. Blaze is flippin hot. Anyways, what's your thoughts on this situation?

Also what is the deal with the Texas title? Can he be stripped? Would he be stripped? Kayfabe or not? the belt has so much history/prestige

Just saw a clip of it, not sure what to make of it.

Miz saying he needs to be banned from wrestling for good, and Ospreay calling for him to be arrested with assault.

It's funny, Hannibal got Hepatitis years ago from Abdullah the Butcher and it ruined his WWE career because they were interested in him.

He gets the hepatitis taken care of and can wrestle again, and messes up his career by doing this.

I did see the video, I thought it may be a work, because Kevin Sullivan did this same gimmick to Brian Lee in SMW and bloodied him up badly by stabbing him with a spike. So it's pretty much Sullivan's gimmicks that the Blood Hunter is doing.

But it could very well be legit too. I guess if Hannibal wrestles for that promotion again, we will know for sure then.

unless Hannibal is completely psychotic, which he’s never appeared to be, then I would say the referee who was hired due to his experience blading in the past simply cut himself way too deep and nicked an artery.

which brings about a bigger ethical question, which wrestling has evaded for the last 20+ years. should these small time performers legally be allowed to cut themselves and bleed for entertainment? the liability is massive.

companies like GCW will likely be a thing of the past within the next decade or so.
