I was told the blood was ketchup, I found out that was bullshit when I was 10 and RVD nailed Spike Dudley with a horrendous chair shot right in front of me at an ECW house show and blood splattered all over my entire row.

forkboy84 posted:I think lots of us must've assumed "no way the blood is real because it would be absolutely deranged to take a razor blade to your own forehead just to make a fake fight feel more dramatic". Totally also let it literally drip on fans and somehow in the litigious 90s no one sued.

CarlCX posted:I'm sure I've told this story before, but my dad loving hated wrestling and when I got really into it around 97/98 it straight-up offended him, and he set out on a mission to get me to stop that led to his demand we watch the network special EXPOSED! PRO-WRESTLING'S GREATEST SECRETS together so I could see exactly how dumb and fake all of it was and how stupid you'd have to be to think otherwise. That's hilarious. My step dad and I had a strained relationship and he used to make fun of me for my love of wrestling a lot, kinda bullying (we're cool now though) but he actually got into it because of Goldberg and he legit marked out when he beat Hogan on Nitro. He then pretended like it never happened the day after I think he was embarrassed for liking it but it was genuine in that moment. I think he catches a match or two every now and again, last time we hung out I told him about AEW and he was cool with the idea of it.
