The Muta Scale is used by Wrestling fans to describe the amount of blood shed in a match. The term is named after "The Great Muta" who set the standard with the amount of blood lost in a match between him and Hiroshi Hase. This site is dedicated to finding and placing these matches on the scale.

Samoa Joe vs Jay Briscoe
Match: Jay Briscoe vs Samoa Joe - At Our Best - 2004
Promotion: Ring of Honour
Length: 15:12
Muta Scale Score:0.9
Our first entry from ROH has Samoa Joe against Jay Brisoe in a steel cage match. Speaking as someone who hasn't seen much of ROH, I was doubtful going in as to what to expect. Then Samoa Joe starting headbutting Briscoe's hand and then my doubt just evaporated.
Briscoe, playing the coward, continually tries to flee from Joe and scale the cage only to be dragged back each time. He eventually gets his shit together and the match really kicks off. Then it quickly returns to the prementioned formula of cowardice and Samoa Joe stomping. At 4:52 Briscoe is revealed to have been busted open after Joe slammed him off the cage numourus times. Instantly the right side of the forehead is covered and after a crap load of headshots its covering his face and his chest. At one point Joe delivers a boot to the forehead and we can see a steady stream dripping from his head. The blood actually splatters to outside the cage. By the ninth mineute of the match he's starting to look like Two Face, with the entire right side of his face is drenched in blood.
