When did wrestling fans become so soft?

You don't need blood to sell a match. AEW goes overboard with it. Who are you trying to appeal to?

The most brutal match I have ever seen was between Walter and Dragunov. No blood just brutality.

I enjoy a good blood match like any other marsupial. Hell, I big up CZW for God's sake, but there is one thing of having it as a storytelling element, or another to satisfy the blood thirsty neckbeards that can't grow the fukk up beyond the wet dreams of the Indy/Attitude era.

They don’t bleed any more than WWE used to before the PG era, you’re just shocked because a major promotion hasn’t done it in 15 years.

I agree that AEW was done it way too much, at least since I've been watching (September) but blading is still practiced because it can add a whole new dimension to a match when done right.

Did Mox vs Danielson needed it? I don't know, it seems Mox' character is someone that would truly only align himself with somebody if he went to hell and back with the other person. And beating the fukk out of each other and making themselves bleed seems like something he would treat like a blood pact or something :heh:

if the wrestlers want to blade to add drama to a match its their choice, i personally dont care, MJF/Cm Punk was gonna be bloody based on the fued im betting alot of people would bytch if they didnt add blood to it, its wrestling and it been done since the 50s

Vince has really rewired some of ya'll brains :unimpressed:

the thread coulda done without the complaining of blading in general and focus on how obvious Danielson was blading on camera, thats something i can agree with

Blading is to sell the story of how personal the rivalry or whatever it is.
Nowhere did I say I thought it was real.
If Di Caprio is getting Sonny'd like in Godfather with 0 blood or effects wouldn't it look stupid?
Now STFU child
