Because people are tired of hearing about a bank addicted drug robber stabbing an actor in the neck with a light tube? It's worth mentioning on the list, but I needed an opportunity to say bank addicted drug robber 😂
Well, David Arquette gives him credit for this match, but did he really think Nick Gage was not going to do that just because David asked him not to the night before? It is Nick fucking Gage clearly, he was. David had to know what he was getting into, and he has given Nick Gage props because he got the POP he wanted to.
@@xerofetus I think Sabu didn't like the idea because the tacks just stick in you for ever. You can't get those out of your back yourself, and they stick in your boots and everything.
I remember a fire spot going haywire during a XPW show with Supreme. While he was on fire, the guy with the extinguisher focused on the table that was on fire than the burning wrestler.
A little context for the #10 entry with Ian and Axl Rotten. Back in the ECW days the 2 brothers were in a heated feud that culminated in what was known as a Taipai deathmatch. Essentially both guys wrapped their hands in athletic tape then dipped them in some kind of glue and then into a bucket of broken glass. So yeah, it was barbaric. Not only was it damaging to punch the other guy but it also hurt the guy throwing punches. Not to mention them pulling pieces off and using them to slice open each other. One of the most violent and bloody match ideas ever created
@@RC99_ProductionsThat bump is one of the reasons Mondo retired so young, Zandig basically took out every table and poor Nick went straight to the ground.
1. Cuervo getting hit with a cinderblock thrown at his head. 2. The death of Mitsuharu Misawa. 3. The Iron Yuppie vs. Dr. Hillbilly's Texas deathmatch in the Springfield Grapple-torium when the loser was unmasked and killed in the center of the ring.
There was one match for a PPV in the late 90s, supposed to be a climactic rematch between Phantasio and Matt Damon to settle a decades long unsettled feud at Unfinished Business ‘99, only for the show to start and being told there would be no match that night due to sandstorms stranding Damon. Messed up.
After he talked about the cinder blocks I thought he was gonna bring up the demonio vs cuervo incident, probably the most brutal wrestling injuries I’ve ever seen. Another super brutal shoot beatdown is Mike Levy vs Mickie Knuckles but if you included shit that happened in IWA in a vid like this the whole list would be just IWA matches lmao
I became disillusioned with wrestling in early 90s. Someone told me CZW was "the new ECW". Antics like that Jun Kasai move were grotesque, and I wanted nothing to do with it.
a more recent messed up thing that happened to Jun Kasai was a few years ago when he almost lost a finger breaking a beer bottle on Violento Jack's head
If you know anything about that [expletives deleted] Ian Rotten, he certainly lived up to his name, and then some. If you don't, go look it up, and you'll soon see why so many people utterly detest him... :/
Was the rubbing alcohol fake? I remember Eddy had to take the seal off it but if you see plenty of deathmatches there wrestlers who throw salt on the open wound eek. But this was early AEW days so I would not be shocked if they did use rubbing alcohol and even if did, he was just helping Mox lmao.
I remember watching a CZW yearly highlights video, (I forget which year), but there was wrestlers using garden strimmers (called weed whackers in the US?) on each other, and another match where a wrestler stabbed a syringe through another wrestlers cheek!
Simon I'm with you when it comes to the red stuff. I just can't watch it most times and I don't get why some wrestlers choose to do that to themselves. I do commend you though for watching stuff like AEW Blood & Guts matches for us because I have needed to turn a few off before.
Essentially to get noticed, grab a pop or keep their dream of being a pro wrestler alive. Although there’s sometimes incidents that get out of hand where wrestlers are forced by their opponents to do things they never agreed to e.g. mass transit, Mike levy, Devon "Hannibal" Nicholson e.t.c. And scenarios like Jun in this video. Jun was already an accomplished deathmatch wrestler, but a lot of the ‘why the f would anyone do that’ spots came after an alleged incident with the yakuza. Apparently Jun slept with someone associated with the Yakuza and they weren’t happy about it with the rumour going they were gonna job his manhood off, but BJW higher up who had a long term standing with the yakuza managed to convince them not to do this as long as he was put through some incredibly painful and increasingly risky spots.
@@Jukeboksi it's unfortunately just a case of following the business for years, you end up learning about a lot of the more twisted stuff as it's what people talk about. If it's this side of wrestling you want to look into the most outsider friendly places covering it are here on UA-cam or Vice's dark side of the ring (pretty sure every episode is on daily motion if you search the episode name, so you dont need to buy a subscription or like me where it isn't available in my country through official means). They're definitely a great starting point, just they tend to be very US centred so you miss the madness that the likes of the Japanese and mexican scene are built upon
You could do a most messed up video for every year. Alone this year....Masada drinking alkohol for fire spitting and setting himself in flames or JJ Escobar setting his crotch in flames and not being able to put it out and getting out of the pants orTarzan Duran at an XPW show cutting his opponents hand nearly off at a barriage spot with a knife or the wrestler in IWA Deep-South who got his finger cut off as a "work" and so much more.
Controversial to say, because it was 18 months earlier, BUT that MAY have indirectly played a role in Eddie's death; he refused a transfusion, or to even go to the hospital. His heart in November '05 was enlarged, and had shrunken vessels which made it impossible to get the blood flow he needed. Plus Vickie Guerrero confirmed he was unwell much of that year, and still wouldn't get checked out...
I guess Mick Foley, Sabu, Terry Funk are all terrible wrestlers since they popularized using weapons in matches. Not mention the Hardy boys, Dudleys, and Edge/Christian who popularized using other tools.
@@elcactusdelamuerte506 ah damn, i got confused, i meant Scissor incident, also in japan. Some dude decided taking a top rope bump on a board with open kitchen scissora was a good idea. Well it wasn't and he was lucky to be alive because by some dumb stroke of luck it actually missed all his vital organs
@@Sadion666 yeah Japan just went over the top back then. When you get to the point a wrestling match ends with a piranha eating a hole in someone's chest you've gone too far. Unfortunately that's just how Japanese wrestling was. You had Inoki and strong style pushing legit strikes in Japan's top company, so the likes of AJPW took it a step further to compete, while guys like Onita took away the wrestling aspect for hardcore spectacles to stand out with others trying to outdo him at his own game. You had some amazing matches back then, but I'm so glad we've come past people being forced into retiring in their mid 20s and the deaths.
You could do this list with Mick Foley by himself due to all the dangerous, and messed-up moments that he's been a part of. One of his infamous ones was during a WCW house-show in Germany when he was in a match against Vader and there was a terrifying botch basically what happened was during a spot Vader was supposed to Irish Whip Mick over the ropes but the Hardcore Icon got caught up in the ropes and due to the ropes being wound to tight it resulted in a gruesome injury that being when Mick got out of the ropes it resulted in him tearing his right ear off of his head.
I remember seeing a match on UA-cam, with a weed-wacker going across a guy's stomach/chest, then salt being poured on it....think it was some American Indie promotion? Guy who was in charge of the area came out and tried to stop the show.
Tony Schvonie literally said on commentary after the botch happened "Somebody for god's sake stop the match cause the human leg isn't supposed to bend that way or that far."
I love when they used glass. It looks so damn good. And it makes Phil Brooks upset. 😅 But I remember TNA using tables with glass panels in the table. Looks so damn good.
Takeda and Jun Kasai have really done some insane stuff to each other over the years
The Mass Transit Incident. That turned my stomach.
What happened?
Was looking for this comment
@@cadendicky1855just use Google dude
I’m surprised David Arquette and Nick Gage wasn’t mentioned. 😰
FACTS like how can you have a video called “most messed up moments in wrestling matches” and now how NICK FN GAGE on here.

LOL
I'm a deathmatch enthusiast, but the absolute worst thing I've ever seen in wrestling was THAT Katsuyori Shibata headbutt.
Good stuff great seeing Simon Miller on the video
If you're curious, that Axl vs Ian Taipei Death Match and the one where Sabu slices open his bicep are both on the WWE DVD ECW Bloodsport.
Sabu said in an interview that the only thing he did not want to do was thumbtacks. I think he refused to take that bump.
Chris Jericho once said that, the anticipation of taking the bump was worse than actually taking it.
@@xerofetus I think Sabu didn't like the idea because the tacks just stick in you for ever. You can't get those out of your back yourself, and they stick in your boots and everything.
He said he hated light tubes too, because they don't hurt and it looks like crap.
He took a thumbtack bump in TNA against Abyss

I first seen it in the old blood sport Ecw dvd back in the day
Before watching… I’m gonna say Zandigs CZW bump off that building onto a truck full of Light tubs…. Insane
He did 2 of them. 1 to Nick Mondo and the other to Joey Janela.
@@RC99_ProductionsThat bump is one of the reasons Mondo retired so young, Zandig basically took out every table and poor Nick went straight to the ground.
I remember the first time I saw that Sid break. It was the one thing I always used to shut down anyone who said it was "fake".
1. Cuervo getting hit with a cinderblock thrown at his head.
2. The death of Mitsuharu Misawa.
3. The Iron Yuppie vs. Dr. Hillbilly's Texas deathmatch in the Springfield Grapple-torium when the loser was unmasked and killed in the center of the ring.
Your #3 is two spots too low.
Gonna need to see fooitage of #3
The blood drinking from aew..is the most brutal thing I've ever seen
Necro butcher getting a lightbulb tube stuck in his arm! Almost tore the muscle off!

If Hannibal spiking the ref isn't on here then I'll be surprised. Saw'll that moment live and still turns my stomach.
Ahh, the barb wire rope match with Terry Funk vs Sabu. That sh*t was nuts!
My girlfriend and I are watching the most violent matches we can find. This will definitely help in our search
Oh how embarrassing. You should try actual wrestling

I like deathmatch stuff but I still can't do stuff where they use knives. Too real for me.
2:02 not exactly lol... it had torn almost all the way off, but was still hanging on, until vader came up and pulled it the rest of the way off.....
Mick a tufff sob 🔥
How is the big bossman being hung by the undertaker not in this list?
No deaths in the ring included? What can be more messed up then that?
"Subu"?🤔 But, why? You've heard how it's pronounced, even from Sabu's very own mouth. It boggles my mind when you do this, and it happens a lot.
The weed eater spot in CZW. That was sickening
How is Nick Gage not #1.
Dude literally died from a wrestling match from slicing an artery and had to be revived.
The bottom of the list is so much more appropriate and belonging than the top of the list it's not even funny.
That joey mercury incident didnt happen on ppv that happen on smackdown I watched it as it happened
What? No Ichiro Yaguchi getting his hand nailed to the ring?
Pretty sure, you could have easily made this a 100 list 😅
Nick gage entered the chat
1:15 😂😂😂😂
Who was in the match where one guy smacks the other over the head with a grandfather clock, and his dome just splits open instantly?
Mad Man Pondo clocked 'Mean' Mitch Page. It's a miracle Page didn't die.
Foley’s ear was already damaged and necrotic going into the match… that’s why they didn’t reattach it

I still can't watch the Mankind vs The Rock I Quit match.
It wouldn't surprise me to find out they did use real rubbing alcohol.
Worst (and dumbest) I've seen was IWA Deep South Carnage Cup. John Rare legit stabbing Spidar Boodrow in the arm with a boxcutter
Was the rubbing alcohol fake? I remember Eddy had to take the seal off it but if you see plenty of deathmatches there wrestlers who throw salt on the open wound eek. But this was early AEW days so I would not be shocked if they did use rubbing alcohol and even if did, he was just helping Mox lmao.
ECW Born to be Wired was NOT a PPV.
I remember watching a CZW yearly highlights video, (I forget which year), but there was wrestlers using garden strimmers (called weed whackers in the US?) on each other, and another match where a wrestler stabbed a syringe through another wrestlers cheek!
8:54 this still bothers me to this day and is a reason I don’t like The Rock as much as I used to.
