Nicholas Jackson comments on the controversial chair shot Jack Perry took during the Blood & Guts match on AEW Dynamite.
The Blood & Guts match headlined the July 24th episode of AEW Dynamite. Near the end of the match, Jack Perry took an unprotected chair shot to the head, and the spot sparked plenty of controversy.
Speaking with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, Nicholas Jackson commented on the chair shot.
A controversial spot in the match took place near the closing sequence when Briscoe drilled Perry in the head with a steel chair. That is a spot that was fairly typical in the late 90’s, but it is exceptionally rare now because of advanced research in brain trauma.
“All I know is Jack is fine, and that’s all that matters,” Nicholas Jackson said. “We know the risk we’re taking in the ring and it wouldn’t have happened if he wasn’t prepared for it.”
Barrasso also noted that multiple AEW sources confirmed that Perry was hit with a gimmicked chair.
Matthew Jackson Praises Blood & Guts Competitors
Matthew Jackson spoke highly of the competitors in the Blood & Guts match. He noted that several people stood out, and he pointed to Jack Perry’s never-say-die attitude.
“Tons of people stood out. I thought Bowens had a great night and showed just how hungry and tough he is,” Matthew Jackson said. “Jack Perry showed never-say-die attitude and perseverance. We obviously showed the naysayers again that we can still hoop and move around with the best of them. In fact, I don’t know if anyone else worked harder or took more punishment than we did.
“Coming up with new ways to violently inflict pain on someone has become a great joy of ours. Whether it’s a barbed wire board sandwich, or making Max Caster eat thumbtacks before a double superkick so he hopefully can’t rap for a long time, I get giddy when I come up with a new way to hurt someone I don’t care for.”
