- It was a move that we used to see every week but rarely see on WWE TV these days. WWE Champion CM Punk reportedly bladed on this week’s RAW in the steel cage match against Jerry Lawler. Punk appeared to gig his forehead before returning to the cage a second time and then appeared to hand the blade off to referee Charles Robinson.
At best we can tell, there has been no fallout backstage – meaning Punk has more power than imagined or he successfully argued that he did not blade and that it was a hardway cut. Blading is absolutely prohibited in WWE these days.
I hope punk did blade on RAW this was what the whole attitude ERA was about first blood matches and chair shots to the head, that was successful then and it would still be successful today, the amount of kids that where in the audience when undertaker bloodied mcmahon or when stone cold and taker faced off in a first blood match at fully loaded is amazing and should never have changed.
