WOR Video: Fallout from AEW Blood & Guts

Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer discussed the fallout from Wednesday’s Blood & Guts match.

Despite using weapons such as glass, thumbtacks, and a bed of nails, no one emerged from the match on Dynamite Wednesday being seriously injured, a change from the previous two Blood & Guts matches.

“There were no serious injuries in Blood & Guts. Everyone is ‘fine’,” Alvarez said.

“They’ll be feeling it. Everyone will be feeling it,” Meltzer said.

“They delivered more than they advertised,” Meltzer said regarding the match. “People were kinda promised something big and that kind of stuff, and they got a 51 minute match that was very, very violent and one of the better War Games matches that I’ve ever seen.”

Meltzer added that back in the day, the War Games matches in NWA were considered some of the more violent matches in pro wrestling.

“Those matches were so tame compared to this,” he said.

An interesting note after the show had The Elite and Blackpool Combat Club shake hands. Kenny Omega cut a promo saying that whatever happens next, he’s sticking with The Young Bucks.

“It’s got people talking tonight, yeah” Meltzer said, pointing out he didn’t know the contract status of the trio, and whatever may happen won’t for a long time.
