I've been wanting to ask some questions about this and now that Extreme Rules in coming up, I think it's a good time. First off, when did they get rid of blood in WWE? I stopped watching in 07 and I'm not sure if there was any blood on TV even at that time. I really think blood is great for the sport and always has been. You don't necessarily need it all the time, but it really adds to a great feud. Maybe once every 1-3 months having some blood at a PPV wouldn't be so bad, but I don't really see it happening. I know WWE is "kind of" a family show and they want that sort of atmosphere and a wrestler taking a blade to their forehead when noone is looking may turn off some parents to the show.
Anyway, I'm not sure if they had the Extreme Rules PPV back in 07. My memory can be a bit foggy when it comes to those days when I gradually stopped paying attention to pro wrestling so I'm not sure. But either way, this is supposed to be the big HARDCORE pay-per-view and they won't have any blood? What shit. Bring Backlash back then.
