December 3. Budapest
Members of Hungarian Championship Wrestling participating in the "Bloody November" event. The show featured elements of "hardcore wrestlng", incorporating the use of spiked clubs, neon lights, chairs, tables, shards of compact discs, staplers, etc. Although a pre-scripted and theatrical form of entertainment, it demands great physical strain and endurance on behalf of the wrestlers.
