Last week on AEW Dynamite, the women competed in a Blood & Guts match. This match turned out to be every bit as brutal as fans expected. Women from both teams shed a lot of blood in search of victory. As a result, the match was filled with multiple dangerous spots. During one such spot, Marina Shafir slammed Kris Statlander back-first into a bed of nails. The shock and pain from the spot was clearly visible on Statlander's face.

During a recent appearance on the Masked Man Show, Kris Statlander opened up about the dangerous spot. She recalled what went through her mind as the nails dug deep into back and head.

"Honestly, it was kind of shocking. It was just like, β€˜Oh, I'm on a bed of nails at this point.’ Then I remember I rested my head for a second and I was like, β€˜Well, there's a nail in the back of my head. Let me pick my head up.’ Then here comes Marina, then she walked away. I tried to relax for a second again, then I felt a nail in the back of my head. I was like, β€˜Nope, what are you doing? There's a nail in your head right now.’ It wasn't the most comfortable thing I've ever laid down on."

She recalled reading online that if the nails are close, then it won't puncture the skin, but she revealed that was not the case with her. She also noted that she was scarred up from the spot.

"I remember I saw some people talking about it online, and they were being like, β€˜Oh, when the nails are that close together, it doesn't actually puncture the skin.’ I was like, β€˜The nails are not that close together. These nails are in my back right now.’ And that’s why I posted a picture of what my back looked like online. I was like, β€˜Yes, there is a physics way to make it happen where if it's really dense, sure, it won't puncture you as much. But this is not that.’ Those nails were in my back. They were in my head. I am scarred up right now from it.” [H/T Fightful]
