Championship wrestler Hulk Hogan agreed to look like he got battered and bloodied up by wrestling legend Ric Flair in an effort to promote their upcoming event “Hulkamania – Let The Battle Begin.” At a press conference in Sydney, Australia, Hulk and Ric were arguing and trading insults about their failed love lives when Flair started punching Hogan in the face over and over causing blood to pour from his head.
But don’t get too alarmed because it’s all FAKE!

The process of blading is fairly easy. Basically, a small concealable razor is hidden in the attacker’s hand causing the attackee to receive a cut big enough for blood to pour out.
