10 Wrestler Scars You Need To See

4. Villano III

While some of today's wrestlers may have scarred foreheads, they can't hold a candle to the older generation - men who made their money working non-televised arena shows every night, taking on hated rivals in front of different crowds, and blading every night to ensure that the paying fans would be back the next time the company rolled through town. Of all the old-school wrestlers with grotesque blade scars, none stands out quite like Villano III. A member of the heralded Villano wrestling family, Villano III first broke into wrestling in 1970 wearing a mask like his brothers, but he still managed to bleed buckets - both through his forehead (after a torn mask, a common occurrence in heated Lucha matches) and his chin (not typically considered a "safe" place to blade). The results - visible after Villano III lost his mask to Atlantis in 2000 - spoke for themselves. Still, that didn't stop Villano III from competing - he officially retired after wrestling at this summer's TripleMania XXIII.
