AEW has created waves in the world of pro wrestling, even putting WWE on their toes with the attention they have garnered in such a little time. One of the things that AEW has done is to establish that it will be quite a different product from WWE.

One such way is how blood will be treated in AEW. Cody Rhodes revealed the same in a recent interview with Comic Book.

In case you didn’t know…

At AEW: Double or Nothing, there was certainly not a lack of blood in the matches. Aside from the fact that Kenny Omega’s nose was busted open during his match with Chris Jericho, there was no dearth of blood in one earlier match involving Cody Rhodes himself.

Cody Rhodes wrestled his own brother, Dustin Rhodes in a vicious match where Dustin bled all over the ring and Cody. At one point it could not be discerned if there was blood on his face or paint.

The heart of the matter

Cody revealed that AEW would not be limiting themselves and there was no fixed limitation for their pay-per-views not having blood. This would be extremely diffrerent from WWE’s PG product.

This revelation could also mean that AEW’s coming television show will be leaning more toward TV 14 than TV PG.

What’s next?

AEW: Fyter Fest is the next event of All Elite Wrestling and will take place on the 29th of June. It will see the debut of Jon Moxley in AEW. Given his hardcore wrestling history outside WWE, there could very well be blood in his match against Joey Janela.
