You haven’t lived until you’ve delivered the Undertaker’s ‘ Tombstone Piledriver’ signature move on a pillow, or put a sock on your hand and tried to ram it in a sibling’s mouth, a la Mankind.
It’s fine – siblings forgive each other over time, so hang in there.
Most of us have long since outgrown our fascination with the pageantry of the WWE, although it remains hugely popular in many parts of the world.
Just south of the American border, though, you’ll find the ‘Total Ultra-Violent Disaster’ league, which is quite a name to live up to.
So, does it deliver the goods? VICE with the description:
In the early 2000s, a Mexican professional wrestler named “Crazy Boy” took a trip to check out an extreme, violent offshoot of the sport that was blowing up in Japan. When he got back, he started working to introduce the world of “lucha libre” to a fighting style with a little more edge—where wrestlers use knives, chairs, fluorescent lightbulbs, and high-risk maneuvers to leave their opponents as bloodied as possible.
VICE Mexico met up with Crazy Boy to find out how his own league, Total Ultra-Violent Disaster, or DTU, is spearheading the extreme pastime in his home country, catching a no-holds-barred match that left the ring covered in blood and broken glass.
Perhaps not best to watch whilst nibbling on your lunch, but I don’t know how strong your stomach is:
Decent efforts.
Nobody will ever be as cool as Jake ‘the Snake’ Roberts, though.
