    Found it easier and 100% more sellable using the " poke" method to wrap wrist up to top of hand with the gig in the v wedge between thumb and first finger, and just popping it against your forehead during a chairshot. Gig stays put,can be used multiple times and no one is the wiser

    That's interesting video of pro-wrestling gig to make bleed. Like we seen "Exposed! Greatest Pro-Wrestling Secret" on TV & UA-cam, there's tiny razor blades hidden from pro-wrestler's wrist or pass from the referee's pocket, timekeeper, etcetera. Mostly fans though it was blood is a fake or real. It makes 50/50 chances to bleeding opponent is real or fake. To cut the forehead to bleeding after hit the ring post, metal chair, bell, etcetera; the wrong way: long cut, it'll takes in a week. The right way: use tiny, small cut like nail size from the finger of hand, after the match, the doctors use medicine blood, antibiotics cream and bandages, 2, 3 maybe 4 days later... it heal.
    Otherwise, it prefer fake blood bag to seems like real blood. Same use for Halloween party.

      It's amazing how he chopped with that hand with a blade stuck to his finger. Apparently he cut them real small like you were referring to when making several from one double edged razor. He laid it parallel with his fingernail just a bit below the crease of the fingertip. Watching him during WM8, vs. Funk, etc you can see the motion he'd make to get the color.

    • @socialist-strong
      @socialist-strong 2 роки тому +6

      when you open your hand, literally stick your fingers out wide, your muscles expand.
      if you tape or wrap your hand when expanded, it won't be too tight and restrict your blood flow.
      If you tape or wrap your hand closed or semi closed, when you use your hand later, and the muscles expand, the muscles + the tape risk being too tight and restricting your blood flow.

      I wear wrist tape specifically for not losing grip with my opponent. So many guys use baby oil or are very sweaty. So when you go to shoot someone off, and they have tape on their wrists. Which is where you should be grabbing during a shoot off, they won’t slip out before you finish the move. You never ever want wrist tape too tight either.

      The reason im throwing some sarcasm at ya about it, is if you're going to start training or already are, i dont know you, it's always good practice to have an open mind and try things before shooting it down or exploring other options. In wrestling, it's all about adapting.
