The Art of Blading

It came to me in a fit of curiosity...

 

What North America workers are the masters of the Blade...

 

 

I'm not asking "WHO BLADES THE MOST" but who blades like it's an art form and their bodies are the proverbial canvas...

 

Who has pulled off the best Illusion of the blade?

 

While Bret could blade buckets...he was never secrective and pretty much gave it away as he would sit in a fetal position for a full minute in "Pain"...

 

HBK pulled something off in HIAC that isn't duplictated very often...A Mid-Air Blade.

 

There must be COUNTLESS other examples of brilliant cut jobs...What comes to you?

Flair's blad job at WM 8. I just remember the blood all over Savage after the match.

Considering that HBK LITERALLY bladed right on camera in HitC, and you CAN'T tell unless you already KNOW he's doing it...yeah, he wins.

What was so special about this? He rolled out and gigged as Perfect distracted the ref...standard gig job.

I'm not sure if he did it on camera but Taker's blade job at No Mercy last year going to ake some beating just because of the sheer ammount of blood he lost.

Here is another question...

 

Has anyone ever gigged somewhere ELSE besides the forehead?

I have a strange respect for HHH's ability to slice his forehead and bleed like a madman.

I'd say Triple H blades the best(and the most)

 

I loved Takers against Lesnar in the HIAC

Kerry Von Erich once gigged his arm by accident

That was his bad for hiding blades in his robe though.

Dusty Rhodes bladed his arm I assume. He still has scars there that I assume are from his matches with Abdullah the Butcher (haven't seen these matches in years, but I do remember him bleeding pretty good from the arm against Abby) and possibly the Sheik. I also recall a local indy show where a guy named G-Moe (I think) bladed his arm against Abdullah the Butcher. I'd assume arm blading was not irregular amongst Abby opponents.

 

Edit: I am pretty sure Piper bladed his ear in the dog collar match against Valentine. Also, Steve Corino used to bleed spectacularly in ECW.

People have gigged their arms before.

 

Ian Rotten has bladed both his arms and his ear.

 

Triple H doesn't blade the most. The guys who do deathmatches regularly (Corporal Robinson, Mad Man Pondo, Necro Butcher, etc...) are the guys who blade the most. Just look at their foreheads for proof.

Does opponents of Sheik and Abdullah blade hardway by the forks of those crazy guys or do they do it themselves?

 

When I look at the way they stab their opponents, it seems like they are really hurting them.

In one of the most brutal and bloody Joshi matches I've ever seen, Akira Hokuto was bladed at ringside by Wally Hamaguchi. One cut was across her forehead and the other on her right side.

 

If you've seen the match, you have to admit it was arguably one of the bloodiest matches ever. And a ***** match to boot.

B.J. Whitmer also has a blade scar forehead- It's so nasty to look at

I've seen the Butcher's opponents blade their arms. It may be possible that they get bladed hardway sometimes, but I am not sure. I remember hearing the Butcher took a chunk out of Dusty's arm, but I don't know if that was kayfabe or not.
