Professional wrestling certainly isn’t ballet and from time to time wrestlers get busted open the hard way during their matches. However, in recent years fans have seen far less blood on WWE programming.
It was recently announced that two WarGames matches will take place at Survivor Series this year, but it doesn’t sound like fans should expect them to be gory. Triple H spoke to The Ringer about the lack of blood on WWE programming, and he indicated that he won’t be pushing to change the status quo.
“The world has changed. The world has evolved. I don’t think it’s necessary. If we have talent that gets [cut open], usually you’ll see them roll out and they’ll get looked at to make sure that there’s nothing dangerous. I’m just of the opinion right now, given the state of the world and the pandemic, and at the end of the day, what we do is dangerous enough without intentionally making it more dangerous. Yes, we did [feature bleeding] for a long period of time, but we’ve changed that practice. And it’s irresponsible to go back.”
