The scale to judge the quality of a bladejob in a wrestling match. The name comes from a particularly bloody match with The Great Muta and Hiroshi Hase, where Muta gigged himself so hard that he, Hase, the mat, and even the ref were covered in Muta's blood. From then on, it was decided that that that would be the standard that bladejobs would be judged by, that is 1.0 Muta and you adjust up or down depending on the match you're watching. For instance, The Undertaker hit 1.2 Muta in that match where he did a bladejob so ill that he was bleeding in Brock Lesnar's mouth, the famous match between Ric Flair and Lex Luger that was stopped due to blood even though Luger was about to win saw Luger do a pathetic .02 bladejob. Hell, it was such a weak bladejob that the cut had already closed itself by the time the decision was announced.
Tommy Dreamer hit 0.9 on the Muta scale at the first One Night Stand PPV, the part where Tommy hugs Beulah and she comes away with a ton of blood in her hair is pretty gross. Yeah, they're married in real life, but that's still gross.
