One of the top stars in TNA Wrestling is the current International Champion Steve Maclin. He recently shared his thoughts on TNA’s new blood policy.
While speaking to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Steve Maclin shared that the new blood policy is to ensure the bleeding means more.
“The past few pay-per-views, with the Dog Collar Match, you had Santana and Ali killing it at Rebellion, and then you had the Barbed Wire Massacre at Unbreakable, the same night that I won the International Championship. There’s a lot of blood recently. So I think that’s their way of scaling it back a little bit and kind of making it mean more for when it does happen again,” he said. “I was perfectly fine. Referee was checking on me the entire match. Asa [Andrew] was right there to check me and docs as soon as I came to the back.
“I was perfectly fine, too. Then went straight to the table. EMTs were trying to start to wrap me up and stop the bleeding, and I told them to get off of me right away so I can cut my promo, please. This is money right now, so let’s use this. It doesn’t come free. So it was kind of nice. Then Carlos, Dreamer, everybody, majority of the roster, mainly my wife was right there looking at me, smiling, knowing you’re just an idiot. There’s no in-between for me. It’s just either I’m gonna do something full-heartedly and put every bit of it into it, or I’m not gonna do it at all. That’s when I tell people, like the day you know I’m hurt, is when you look at my wife and she’s actually concerned,” Steve Maclin said.
Maclin was busted open recently during his Dog Collar Match against Eric Young. This match was said to be the last one in TNA before its new excessive blood policy goes into effect.
