How to make a gig

I've heard of guys hiding blades In their mouth which Is scary enough before you cut your head open

[@ThirtyPack.]

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

[@dwightjackson8361]

That is exactly how I did mine when I was active.. I always kept different color tape to go with the canvas in case I dropped my gig it wasn't noticeable

[@SantinoBros]

Nice! I like that. good call.

[@ljjohnson954]

Sweet so you couldn't find it and someone during a later match could cut themselves on your used blade.. Excellent idea!

Do you drink a couple of disprens before the match. Inorder for your blood to be thin so that you can bleed more from a small cut

[@datfatkid5047]

I know there is two ways of blading there is poking and slicing but my question is when you slice is it a corner or the flat side

[@bignapolean3068]

After using it, do you put it back under the tape? If not, where do you dispose of it?

[@LgnSknks541]

Real men gum it like a dip of chew.

[@JimVollrath-tf5hc]

In your trunks or give it to the ref

[@GTA_500]

Now after you use your blade how do you hide it so people don't see it?

[@cousincondry5101]

Swallow it.

[@ComicBookGuy420]

Wrist or thumb tape, then put a small piece over, enough so it is covered and won't slice, but small enough to be able to instantly get to it Disposal via referee, or, if you have a decent ring set up, hide it in your hand until you can slip it under the ring apron

[@andyshistorylessons8278]

IDK if this is true, but I heard Jim Cornette and a couple pro wrestlers say that they tape the blade to their finger or carry it in their speedo or leotard or whatever. Is that true, Joey?

[@SantinoBros]

Yep. I've heard Ric Flair use to keep the blade in his mouth.

[@whatspadethinks]

@@SantinoBros No it was Tully who kept his in his mouth, Flair always kept his on his fingers. That 1/4" strip of tape he always wore on his right index finger was where he put it. He explained it on Austin's podcast and mentioned it on his own a few times. 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.

[@SantinoBros]

[@damienalicea8696]

That's interesting video of pro-wrestling gig to make bleed. Like we seen "Exposed! Greatest Pro-Wrestling Secret" on TV & KZbin, 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.

[@DEMISEJAYDENTUCKER]

What if your character r gimmick wears gloves ?? Can you make a video of it explaining the gig with wearing gloves please

[@SantinoBros]

No doubt about it, the gloves will make it difficult but not impossible. But I've been around long enough that it's only impossible until it's done. It takes practice, but I don't recommend gigging in this day and age. But I get it, ain't no one was going to tell me shit, I was going to gig cause I saw my heroes bleed and that's what I want to do.

[@DEMISEJAYDENTUCKER]

Be cool to possibly see a video on

[@DEMISEJAYDENTUCKER]

I've gig or bladed or juice or bleed but I haven't done it with gloves r gloves with finger openings on them

[@DEMISEJAYDENTUCKER]

Can you do a video on it with either u r someone else do it someone wearing like weight gloves that you have to Velcro and the gloves r fingerless their kind of like ufc gloves but they ain't their weight gloves you can buy at walmart

[@DEMISEJAYDENTUCKER]

You say you wouldn't gig but what if where your wrestling and who your wrestling for is fine with it ?

[@Shielsproductions100]

How do wrestlers decide to bleed during a match?.

[@yetanotheruser1989]

The wrestlers will decide based on A) if the match calls for it, for extra intensity, etc B) who will bleed C) what spot will cause it, i.e. hit with a chair, thrown into the steps, etc

[@gaminglikeaproallthetime4563]

See, my worry is what if it cuts through the tape and into your skin while you're flying about in the ring?

[@markjozenm.barnachea7209]

From a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the least and 10 the most, how painful is the blading job? always wanted and curious to try it. thanks.

@Logan Starr have you tried it? what's the best, or if not, the better way of doing it less painfully?

[@markjozenm.barnachea7209]

@Logan Starr which part of the forehead is it less painfully to cut?

[@neayndinardo9317]

Just don't cut urself too deep lol rich flair? Cactus ,chainsaw Charlie (Terry funk) etc. Wrestlers always say blading can be dangerous only to have cut themselves too deep.

[@curtiswilliams5223]

If you can’t take even the slightest pain don’t do wrestling

[@Smoshylife]

Why tf would you want to do that for free

[@TDOGGSTUFF]

Wouldn't it be easier to give the gig to the referee? He could just hand the guys during the match right before the spot?

[@switchbladedesigns7752]

Not always, as sometimes the spot may happen away from the ref

[@dariovidro9099]

Most of the time the spots might happen outside the Ring so I think it's best this way.Besides the crowd is so invested someone might see the hand-off.

[@LgnSknks541]

Some refs aren't comfortable handling a blade for guys. Just a situational thing each time.

[@spongebobsquarepants8403]

What do you use a gig for

[@JokerKardz6685]

blade jobs... the wrestler takes the blade, cuts their forehead to produce blood to add an element to the match.

@@spongebobsquarepants8403 depends. Samoa Joe headbutt Necro Butcher and drew blood. Its risky though because of head trauma, like when Brock Lesnar sliced open and concussed Randy Orton with elbows.

[@1rroger]

When he starts taping his wrist, at one point he says "hand wide open." What does "hand wide open" mean and/or what does it have to do with taping his wrist?

[@socialist-strong]

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.

[@alpi7500]

Will there be any scars after scratching my forehead?

[@Biting_bullets25]

Anyone know the best spot to cut or where not to and how big it should be

[@Kristian179]

I'm guessing anywhere on the forehead is best except you have to make sure you don't cut an artery

[@Steve-mx6lz]

Anywhere and any direction on forehead ?

[@SantinoBros]

I used to do it in my hair line in a stick and twist motion. My uncle Supreme would go on horizontally on his forehead. Damian 666 will do it on his forehead in a vertical position. I would recommend 1-2 cm horizontal on the forehead.

[@WessideVibez]

Wrist tape Definitely looks uncomfortable asf what’s other options? I don’t ever see myself wearing wrist tape as a Wrestler.

[@JokerKardz6685]

wrist tape helps with support. wrestlers use it so they don't break their wrists inadvertently

[@IzakPhineasAbney]

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.

[@dvsmike]

You totally negated using something you never even used, Ty? As mentioned already it has its practical uses. Now imagine if you will, you seeing yourself using wrist tape? Then you going on a youtube video and learning how to wrap your wrist correctly and actually training with it? 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.
