They had four priests hold down the victim and the head priest would use a decorative knife to take out the victims heart. there were also blood lettings where the king would cut himself and sacrifice his blood. before sacrifices some people were painted. the Aztecs believed they had a "blood debt" to the gods and to avert disaster.
