Hulk Hogan's Face Bloodied During Presser

Posted Nov 18th 2009 9:00AM by TMZ Staff

The blood was pouring down Hulk Hogan's face, back into his hair and down to his mouth after the wrestling legend got into a wild brawl with Ric Flair at a press conference in Australia.

Hogan and Flair were in Australia to promote an upcoming wrestling event, when all of the sudden they began to beat the crap out of each other ... Flair socking Hogan in the head over and over and over.

We know -- you're thinking it's all BS to promote the fight, but we spoke with somebody in Hulk's camp who insists the entire thing was real ... the blood and the injuries.

1. That's a classic wrestling blade job

If you look at most of the old-school wrerstlers out there they have literally dozens of blade marks on their forehead from blade jobs. The Original Sheik (NOT The Iron Sheik)had them and it was said that they never healed so that when he needed to bleed in a match he would just open them up by pulling the skin apart by the scar tissue and the blood would flow..

3. Look at Dusty Rhodes forehead now

Looks like someone ran a rake over his face.

6. yep

I shook Moose Cholak's hand way back when at a public function and I couldn't believe how many scars he had on his forehead from the blade jobs!

4. That was my immediate reaction...

...if you're even a remote fan of Ed Wood and haven't seen this:

("The Haunted World of Edward D. Wood Jr.")

...I recommend it, but in the context of this conversation, there is considerable discussion of wrestler Tor Johnson and making him up for the various Wood films. One of the makeup artists discusses the "blade jobs" and Tor's regular use of them.

Just look at the scars on Ric Flairs head and Hogans head when they arent bloody. Ric Flair has been blading for years.

8. Yep and they really need the money

Ric Flair has 3 ex wives and still whores himself out for money whenever he can. Hogan still thinks he's 50 and is still paying lawyer fees for his stupid kid. Now he's trying to make this big thing with him signing with TNA. Its just damn sad.
