View Full Version : Wrestling things you do in real life

This has definitely been discussed before, but whatever. Only so many topics, bro.

So, what wrestling mannerisms/poses/catchphrases do you find yourself doing a lot in real life?

Recently, I seem to be going through a Sheamus phase.


I will frequently call people "fella", and in private, when no one is looking, I will do the Sheamus "beat your chest and then throw your arms out to the side" pose. :shifty:


So, what kind of things do you find yourself doing?

Of course, I naturally assume that everybody who was watching wrestling back in the day used to constantly use The Rock's catchphrases all the time.

I say "Brother," but that's more because me and some friends mock the guy from Lost than anything to do with wrestling.

I also Stunner my boss when she gets too uppity.

Oh, and sometimes when I do something, like say, get past a part in a game I've been struggling with, I'll say 'I AM....A GAMING....GODDDD' in the style of JBL. Just replace 'gaming' with any other small task, such as washing the dishes....

Oh, and also on drunken nights my friends and I always do classic Ric Flair lines.

"I live in the Big House, on the Big Side of town. I have more cars, than most of you got friends"

We watched the Ric FLair and the Four Horseman DVD one time fucked up and it has always stuck. The idea of the 4 of them giving an interview, with a coked up Flair gently cooing in the back ground waiting for a chance to go off is priceless.

When watching other sports, or even movies, and TV shows.... I will describe athletes/characters as having a "gimmick" if they have one. If an athlete is milking a fall I'll refer to him "overselling".

If someone during the game, or a character in a movie/TV show, does something dickish.... I'll just be like "Ha ha ha! Yes! What a heel!"

I love doing The Rock's "it doesn't matter" schtick to people. it never gets old!

It's horribly old when the Rock does it. It was even horribly old before he left.

- I sometimes talk like Triple H, and finish most every word with "-uh."

- Raven's "arms out" pose.

- I do Punk's "wrist roll" that he does, mostly because it loosens them up and sometimes I get them to crack.

- I use some wrestling moves with my son to bounce him off the couch. (The AA and The Wasteland are especially good for that.)

- The "Really? Really?!" thing was something I used before Miz made it big. I still use it.

Do this at work every time I pass through the chiller curtain.

Also, the Christian "slap chest, look into distance".

"You know it"/"Woo Woo Woo" has been a popular phrase amongst my friends for 2 years now.

My g/f uses "Really" without even knowing it's a "wrestling thing" so that caught on pretty easily.

And this, pretty much any time I enter any room, anywhere. Especially bars.

Honestly I actually have been saying "really" A LOT lately. My girlfriend even mentions that if I say really one more time that she will spank me or something... so I go "Reaaaaaaallllly really?" and she mentioned that I actually got her saying it.

Sometimes, just to show I'm important, I show up to work 45 minutes into my shift and amble about the hallways pulling a carry-on bag behind me occasionally stopping to talk to a random (jobber in my opinion) worker. The boss didn't find this shit humorous in the least.

When I was in high school it was during Bob Backlund's return to glory, so everyone got the cross-face chicken wing. It became almost a game to catch a buddy not paying attention. Eventually the teachers grew concerned because they thought we were legit fighting and put a stop to that shit. I almost wish I lived back home so I could run into one of my old classmates at the mall and slap that bitch on, then let go and stare at my hands.

Sorry, rambling...I'll shut up now.

As soon as I wake up, I roll out of bed and immediately get on all fours, punching the floor a few times. This wakes up my girlfriend, and as soon as she begins to move, I run up and punt her in the head. Then I put on my over-sized bath robe and go wait for the paperboy. Once he arrives, I open the door, get the paper, yell "Wooooo" and slap him in the chest. Needless to say, he doesn't like this too much.

After that I take a shower, where I often find myself filling my mouth with the water dripping from my hair, which I then spit all over the bathroom Triple H style. I then make a hearty breakfast, eat my vitamins and say my prayers.

From there, I make the commute to work in my monster truck, but often times get stuck in traffic where I shout "Really?" and make reference to the people in front of me "About to get got".

Once I get to work, I crack open a beer, give my boss a Stunner, flip him off, and kidnap his daughter. The following Monday I reveal to him that I'm going to marry said daughter in a Satanic ritual, and as a result will own a portion of his company. (This is how I keep my job) Around lunch time, I hide in the rafters and just wait for people to come back. I then turn off all the lights, come down from the ceiling and hit everyone with a baseball bat before disappearing like a ninja. When it's time to leave work I make it a point to run over my boss's Corvette.

Finally, I go home, "Stone Cold" a few beers, eat dinner, let the dog out, then find a Bible and strangle my wife and son.

Whenever I need to remember something, I write it on the palm of my hand and then draw a gigantic "X" on the other side, ala CM Punk. I tell people it helps me remember what's on my palm, but that is a lie.

I've definitely been listening to "Cult of Personality" a lot recently, often on my mp3 player while walking down long hallways. I also do the wrist roll when working out, before hitting the punching bag. And every time I do a high kick to the bag, I'm thinking of CM Punk's Muay Thai kicks.

If I know them well enough, if someone tells me "good luck", I'll tell them thank you, but luck is for losers.

Let's say CM Punk has had a considerable impact on me over the past few years.

In instances where I accidentally get a cut on my forehead somehow, I am annoyed by how much it will bleed....


But then I will immediately go to the nearest mirror and be all like:

LOL I remember when I was younger, I took a blade and tried to cut myself on the forehead, but I didn't even have it go in all the way, 'cause I was too chicken...

...hence, I only scratched my forehead...and of course, no blood.
