I agree with the ones saying he needs a memo-checker, because the blading has really cut back *no pun intended* over the years.
He honestly sounds like one of the old guys who grew out of wrestling, but insists on letting people know "it's fake", "they cut themselves", and "you can see them calling spots"

Yeah if you watch his show on Blog TV you'll notice he mentions it each night, He also has pics up of himself handing out fliers outside of MSG.

I think they should use it but only for certain angles. Like, the HIAC for example. If you go face first into a chainlink fence, your probably going to bleed. There doing more harm not having blood IMO. Their showing kids you can go through tables, get hit with chairs, and fall off ladders without getting hurt. When a kid sees someone go through tables he needs to think "man that really messed him up, id never do that". But instead their saying "look he didnt get hurt, me and my buddies could do that."

I'd say "No" ro blading, I think blood happen by accident would be better way than cut to bleed by yourself

You could get some bad infections in there, the wrestlers should wash their hands before blading another wrestler.
If Demento had started this campaign back in 2004 around Backlash time, it may of worked. he brings a valid point.

I don't see the need for blading... Does a match really have to be a gorefest to be entertaining? A bit of blood does no harm, depending on the angle. If the hell in a cell with Edge/Taker just gone by had to have seen both men covered in blood then it would have done the match wonders. Not bleeding in that match may have damaged the believability and threatening nature of the hell in a cell. And the end of the match looked like a Mr. Bean skit. However, in a match like an Ironman or whatever, where the storyline is "im the better technical wrestler than you" then blood is probably just going to damage the feud. Works both ways, but this jabroni is just looking for attention. I agree with this. Blading/blood when appropriate is fine with me like that Hell in a Cell Match. The lack of blood just took away alot of the credibility of the match as far as it being a "brutal" match. I think this jabroni is looking for attention myself. |

I love how the people defending blood in matches only defense is that it "adds realism and makes the matches more real"...
Well, I don't know when the last time anybody cracked you in the head with the FLAT seat of a folding chair....but I could hit you a thousand times and it's not going to do anything other than create a bruise.
So bleeding from getting hit with a chair is the most unbelievable thing in the book.

Kind of like when the Rock hit Foley 11 or something times with a steel chair and gave him a huge gash that required multiple stitches...with his hands handcuffed behind his back? Two-shay. Touche. |

What about the time Foley hit X-Pac (when X-Pac returned to the WWE during the "Monday Night Wars") and busted his face open? The time Zach Gowen kicked a chair into vince and busted vince open leaving, literally, pools of blood around the ring? Of course they can make you bleed. |

Demento just can't stand the fact that no one cares about him and that we have all forgotten about him.
I don't care if wrestlers blade or not. It's their choice.

I say blade man it's makes the sport seem more real and adds that intense factor to a story line or match.I for one would blade if I were wrestler and called apon to do so with out any questions asked.

So, you don't think that HIAC match in this past SSlam couldn't have used some blood, when past ones were blood baths? Like someone else said, fans will get the idea that being thrown around all those items doesn't hurt and does not cause bleeding. I sure as hell thought that the lack of blood in the Taker/Edge HIAC took away from the realism of the match. Sure, hitting someone with a chair causing bleeding MAY be unrealistic, depending on the circumstances, but I sure don't think that bleeding in a Hell in a Cell match is unrealistic. |

I think blading does have its place in wrestling.
I am NOT for the overuse of it. I don't like gorefest-type wrestling and I don't like it when it happens too frequently.
I think every now & then to add some drama to a match and really make it hit home, blading works well and adds to a match, but it should be done very rarely.

Funny, I complain about TNA for their god awful acting, Don West, terrible segments, and Super Eric. I'm offended I couldn't help but notice smile empty soul on wf...  Blading will never be banned |
