0 Subject: Vote: BLOOD Points

Posted by: Mike D
- Sustainer [41831612] Mon, Aug 23, 2004, 15:33

As suggested by our new Wrestling Buddy Bond, James Bond, in the aptly named "Bond is Raw" thread, a vote for Blood Points.

1. Should we award Blood Points? Yes/No
2. If Yes, in what amount? 5/7/10/12, other
3. Should the amount of bleeding affect the points given, where voting could be used if necessary to quantify? Yes/No
4. Should whether someone blades or is busted open the hard way be considered, and if so, should more points be given for being busted open the hard way, where voting could be used if necessary? Yes/No

Falls count anywhere should be added, I suppose.

I was thinking the I Quit where Rock made Foley say it into the microphone and thats how they finished the match.

OK your right, after a little research, an I quit match is what you describe. So any wager based on the outcome of the match should not be considered a stipulation for our purposes?

I was pretty strongly against this at first, now I'm teetering. One thing I think the rule should be absolutely clear about is that if a match stipulation that we have not listed is brought in it should automatically get either no points or the minimum (5 points) for a stipulation, no matter how dynamic it might seem, Nuclear Holocost match or a Biblical Armegeddon match or whatever it might be.

Yeah I think that will be easiest to determine.

You see me climb the ladder and win. Thats definitive. Or climbing out of the cage. Or a match that is organized specially (as was added below)...

Getting a date with Stacy because you won (or even Til Death Do Us Part which was pretty cool) aren't really any different than normal matches IMO.

forgot a VERY important Stipulation match which is certainly deserving. The 60 minute Ironman.

or a traditional Survivor Series match? I am not how to categorize those.

What if they do something like 4/7 falls? Maybe you should just have one stip for a multiple falls match.

Also don't forget a lumberjack match (I suggest 10 points for that).

If we could get someone to look in one of the video games that would be a good list.

There's another kind of match who's name I can't remember. You have to beat one guy, hen the next guy, then the next guy and the next and so on. We used to call it King of the Mountain in high school wrestling practice. I know that Chave won one of these kinds of matches, probably late in Season 2 or early Season 3.

getting more and more organized...

And yes, any new stipulation would recieve 0 or 5 assuming it fits into that group well. And if its really unique - then I think we would need to see a match completed before voting on how much its worth in the future.

why is a casket match worth more than a cage match? or a ladder match? or an i quit match, for that matter?

it's one of the lamest matches ever.

even more lame than a texas bullrope match, which, if done right, kicks ass.

even more lame than a coal miner's glove match,which, if done right, is still stupid.

I think the women's jello/pudding matches are usually counted as in-ring vignettes, Mike D. Sorry. But the "anything on a Pole" match conjured an image from a bachelor party I was part of over the weekend.

I would say if they ring a bell - and someone has their hand raised at the end. Then by all means... 5 point Jello or Mud bonus.

We just need to come up with generic titles for those types of matches or weapons matcheslike Tree was mentioning and have them be 5 points until we decide it deserves consideration to a higher tier on our current 3 Tier system.

will these broad categorizations do?

Weapons Match
Foreign Substance Match (Mud/Jello)

and yes Tree - Stairway to Hell would be a 15 pointer - but we will NEVER see it in WWE so its irrelevant.

but I guess what MITH says is true too - I think the mud/jello match is up to the discretion of the scorer. IF its in the ring and is like a normal match - just with mud all over the place then sure. If in a pool on the entrance way and really not official... guess we keep that as a vignette...

I don't know about that. or a TripleThreat/3-Way Dance. I don't think those deserve it really.

Not sure about elimination type matches. I would lean towards no but I can't explain why.

Re post 53, we could call it a "pool of fluid match". 'Foreign substance' leaves too much potential for a stip relating to something like Tajiri-mist.

I've seen them be out of the ring in a corner of the arena, so as to not get the ring all messed up. But they ring the bell and have a match.

what about a scaffold match? i think that deserves a 50 point bonus, and a 100 point bonus for the guy who takes the bump off the scaffolding.

oh, and man, don't forget the Prince of Darkness match. that deserves like a 7 1/2...it's even cooler than the coal miner's glove match...

not sure if those tag matches count. at least not he tornado one - cause thats just a tag match where all four are in the ring. along the lines of the three way dance not being included.

The elmination is a question as mentioned before. I guess 5 points bonus for that format is worthwhile.
Especially for an official Survivor Series match.

Important to note Battle Royal/Royal Rumble not included because they are their own monster which has been dealt with seperately and are now scored accordingly.

I've been out of town all weekend so excuse my tardiness.

I'm just not a huge fan of this whole proposal. It just seems like a lot more scoring to do. And we have enough problems getting scoring done now. I have basically handled 95% of the Raw scoring. Smackdown has been hit and miss amongst a few people.

To add more scoring things to the mix will make it even harder. And we are also opening things up to subjective rulings on weird matches they make up on a random Raw. Just seems like a lot more headaches and debates.

But I can go with the flow if we can really make this ironclad without subjective material (or as best we can outside of bizzarre things).

The Taker/JBL match at No Mercy will be a Last Ride match. No submission, pinfall or count out. The loser must be thrown in the back of a hearse.

I actually don't think there will be that much debate. The majority of these will be 5 point bonus and are pretty obvious where a match type will slide in.

Hell, WWE doesn't do anything revolutionary anyway... we have seen it all before or some variation of it.

I wouldn't mind doing the "stipulation scoring" say with another person like Mike D or Wiggs who I can easily contact if its open to discussion.
I am gonna try and do some Smackdown's this season anyway.

With Kane blading on Monday's RAW, this was another opportunity to award blood points. In context, blood points (3, 5 or even 10 points) should be applied, IMHO, if the INTENT was to have a wrestler bleed. Clearly this one of those instances.

Obviously with such a physical sport as wrestling there will be numerous times where accidental bleeding will occur. Points should NOT be awarded under that scenerio. However, it's my contention that intentional bleeding/blading is, for the most part, quite obvious to the common viewer in regards to both the performer and the story that is being told within the context of the match.

I don't think we want to differentiate. If we are gonna do blood then it shouldn't matter. If somebody bleeds at their job on accident they should still be rewarded. :)
