10 Totally Gross And Gruesome WWE Visuals

7. Tooth Or Consequences

It is for many the understated peak of a match with very few valleys - despite far too many steep falls.

Sporting a smile stained with blood and expression that believably converted his pain to pleasure, Mick Foley was a paradoxical picture of health from close-range save for the actual tooth that had vacationed up from his mouth into the sweat-sealed hairs in his nostril.

At first glance presumed spittle or snot, it's easy to overlook the nestled pearl of white until the realisation sets in that an actual molar has flown north during his flight south. The camera pans artfully past the wreckage, revealing a broken body leaning against the ropes as a way of support his frame can no longer provide. The tooth up his nose is very apparently the least of his worries - but fewer injuries suffered that night were perhaps as relatable to an awestruck general public.

A wince-inducing prospect, the idea of having a tooth pulled out feels more than enough for a mere mortal. Gruesome by normal human standards, it was the easiest to rectify for Mankind.
