Vintage Pro Biting

One of the most brutal tactics from the Golden Age of wrestling was when one wrestler would sink his teeth into the other man's face like a hungry dog.  Just look at this lunatic blatantly biting the victim's hair line, trying to draw blood!  This is totally illegal and disgusting!  The fans will not tune in to watch savage brutality like this!

Come on ref, don't just stand there tapping this cheater on the shoulder!  This poor guy is in the ropes, plus it is illegal to bite in pro wrestling!  Do something to stop this bloodthirsty animal before he rips the other guy's face open with his teeth!

One of the most notorious biters from the old days was Freddie Blassie.  Here he is cradling a young man's head in his hands, preparing to feast on the poor guy's forehead.  I see the ref is patting Blassie on the shoulder, but that won't stop this blood thirsty animal!
As Blassie sinks his teeth into this shocked opponent, the ref tries to pull the psycho off by yanking back his hair.  I think the ref is just causing more damage to the other wrestler's forehead, because Blassie is locked on like a pit bull.

Oh no, Blassie has busted open his hairy chested opponent!  The poor guy looks weak from loss of blood. It has even splashed down onto his hairy chest.

You know a wrestling match has gotten too violent when the blood starts to flow!  The ref needs to step in, Blassie has his jaws wide open for yet another attack on the victim's bloody face.


Blassie looks like a savage beast as he prepares to gnaw on this helpless man's face.  Does this maniac receive pleasure from biting other men until they bleed?  Maybe he needs more protein in his diet.  This is totally brutal and unfair, that cop in the background should arrest this lunatic!

This magazine cover features Blassie proudly scraping his white teeth on some helpless stud's bloodied forehead, forcing the young man to wear the dreaded Crimson Mask.  Why would the young hunk agree to a dog collar match against such a wild savage?  Are there more pictures of this barbaric violence inside the magazine?  I guess we'll have to buy the magazine to find out.

Finally someone has done something to prevent Blassie from using his teeth on other wrestlers!  At least if he is muzzled like Hannibal Lector, he won't be able to maul any more opponents.
Bruiser Brody was another wrestler known for his ruthless tactics and thirst for blood.  Here he grinds his teeth on the face of Carlos Colon, like a lion tearing into a helpless lamb.  Colon is not even defending himself as his blood pours down his face, coating his arms until they are the color of his scarlet singlet!  The fans should not have to watch this sickening torture every time Brody steps in the ring.  Something should be done to force this beast to fight clean!


The caption for this picture talks about Koloff's "sickening look of pleasure as he bites into the forehead of the Iron Sheik." Are they saying that this Russian savage is sexually aroused by biting other men? This is disgusting, why would they glorify sadistic violence like this by comparing it to erotic pleasure? The fans do not want to read about twisted maulers who get off on hurting other guys.
Hey, I thought Backlund was a good guy!  Here he shows off his sadistic side by gnawing on Superstar Graham's face until Graham is gushing  blood down his muscular shoulders and chest.  Backlund looks like a savage with blood on his mouth and chin.  Come on, someone clean these animals off, the fans should not be witnessing this vicious torture.


Check out this bald biter, leaning over to clamp his jaws on the forehead of his beefy victim, who kicks his legs in agony and frustration.
The ref slaps this bald dude on the back to stop him from biting the handsome face of the young Bavarian Boy.  Why is it that the bald guys seem to enjoy chewing on their victims?

Later in the match, the Bavarian Boy gets his revenge on the bald bully, showing him how it feels to be bitten on the forehead.  Since the ref is not around to slap the cute kid on the back, the other baldy jumps in the ring to pull the Bavarian Boy off.  This is rare, for a pretty-boy to use foul, dirty  tactics like biting a guy.

Hey wait a minute, this young man isn't biting the bald cheater, I think he is kissing the man!  Wow, the other baldy is jealous.  He pulls the young man's head back by the hair so he can steal a kiss too.


Another vintage grappler who would often sink to the level of a raging beast was Bulldog Brower.  He has already humiliated this hairy chested opponent by ripping into his forehead until it is soaked in blood, yet he continues to gnaw away at the man's flesh.  No wonder they call him "Bulldog", he wrestles like a wild dog forced to fight in a cage.

Now check out the rabid look in Bulldog Brower's eyes as he grips some young man's hair in his fists and opens his mouth wide to take a big bite.

Grrrrr, Brower chomps down on his young victim's face, holding the lad's head steady with two handfuls of hair.  Come on Brower, you can beat this kid fair and square, so why do you have to cheat by biting and pulling hair??
Here are two beefy fighters from the old days in a bloody match with plenty of biting.  I guess Killer Karl Kox did not get enough for lunch, so he needs to maul on Dusty Rhodes' face.  

In the bottom picture, Dusty has streams of blood trickling down his face.  Kox holds his fat boy toy's face toward the camera to proudly show off the results of his ruthless biting. The crazy beast has blood on his mouth and chin, proof to the fans of his nasty tactics and savagery.

Pro Wrestling is too violent when the wrestlers start biting eachother until they bleed.  What ever happened to being a good sport and fighting fair?
