These Wrestling Weapon Tattoos Will Leave You Feeling Heelish

Hardcore matches are notorious for the use of the strangest weapons like fire extinguishers, cookie sheets, trash cans, and even bowling balls. Then there’s the classic TLC match where tables, ladders, and chairs are often used for anything but their intended use.

Some wrestlers have a weapon of choice, like HHH with his sledgehammer, Jeff Jarrett with his guitar, and Sandman with a Singapore cane; others just grab whatever they find under the ring or at ringside.

A wrestling inspired tattoo doesn’t have to be a portrait or logo of a specific wrestler. Other aspects associated with wrestling, such as steel chairs, thumbtacks, or barbed wire baseball bats can make for unique and interesting addition to a wrestling themed sleeve, or even act as a gap filler to your existing body of work.

There’s one thing for sure: I can promise you that a wrestling weapon tattoo won’t hurt nearly as much as being hit with the actual weapon.

What is your weapon of choice?
