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. |
People's Eyebrow
|
I, too, do the Sheamus Beat Chest taunt, but mostly I just do "What" and "Really".
|
Have always done the People's eyebrow and The Rock's catchphrases. Also have started to use Miz's "Really?" and R-Truth's "...about to get got!"
|
I think most I do have been said. Fella, the eyebrow, Really?
I started calling people 'Little Jimmy' for a while for kicks, and sometimes do 'Santino-isms' |
I do MVP's entrance pose he does when he first comes out.
|
My top 2 wrestling-related things are:
saying "brother" and throwing up the Wolfpac/Kliq sign |
Oh and this, but only for important things (church, weddings, funerals)

I hook people's testicles up to car batteries.
|
Vocabulary. Gimmick, heat, jobber, strawb, punter, mark etc come up in every day conversations. "Gimmick" has even infected my missus's vocab.
|
After a roll in the hay, I tend to quote Bret Hart.
|
When I get tired at work, I "Hulk Up" and get a second wind.
Ok. That part is not true. What is true is the fact that I always have to fight the need to finish the statement "Take Care" with "Spike Your Hair". |
i tell people i work with i am the "best in the world"
|
Quote:
Also, sometimes when I pass a pillar or something tap my arm and give it a clothesline. :$ |
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....
Being a wrestling nerd is hilarious. |
Sometimes I finish a can of coke with the Stone Cold can in the air, pouring the last of it down to my mouth. At home anyway.
I'm sure there are more, but I can't think of them right now. |
Ric Flair's "Wooooooooo" during Bruins hockey games when they score.
|
I love doing The Rock's "it doesn't matter" schtick to people. it never gets old!
|
I say "hey yo" to people online to start conversations. Not in person though. Don't think I do anything else.
|
Oh, when I'm watching TV I tend to fidget with the remote and give it suplexes.
|
Always do the RVD thumb pose at home
|
I sometimes give my laundry bag an overhead belly to belly. One day the strap is going to catch my neck and break it, so I can REALLY be like Kurt Angle.
|
What?, Fella, and the occassional Woo Woo Woo when my group of friends are drunk.
|
:lol: I did WWWYKI the other day when I was out drinking, my friends (who don't watch wrestling) thought it was hilarious.
|
Quote:
Wow, you're right. It never does get old. :y: |
WWWYKI, Really, and at the end of my daily meetings with my staff, it's clobberin' time, just before the doors open.
And like LJ, I have to control myself when someone says take care. |
brb gonna go get my cat in a sleeper.
|
I "Steve Austin" 2-3 beers at a time whenever me and the boys are having a big night out.
I also use the term "No Sell" quite often. |
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. |
Also, I die at a young age due to excessive drug use
|
:rofl:
|
I've been doing the people's eyebrow for years when someone does something stupid apparently and never even noticed till my sister pointed it out a few months ago.
|
I use wrestling terms whenever i talk about wrestling with people, i tend to say 'Awesome' a lot, I used to do the Raven pose a lot.
|
Quote:
|
I know, i don't use it as a wrestling term, i just use it to say 'because i'm awesome' to people.
|
Unless he says it like 'Awwwweeeeessssooommmmeeeee'
|
The fact that the phrase "really" has infected my vocabulary scares me
|
exactly.
|
I'm not telling you anything, you don't already know.
|
I'll do the Flair Wooooo! quite often and I've been known to use santino's "Greatest of all the times" line when I win at something.
|
Also use "Beaten like a government mule" alot when people ask how my day at work was or something
|
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!" |
when i get pissed off about something i have a habit of going off into a cornette-promo style rant about it for ages then not letting it go for a while in conversation.
|
I beat women
|
I lit my brother on fire once.
|
I frequently wear spandex to work.
|
Anytime I go through any sort of curtain/part I always... I dunno... kind of BURST through, like my music just hit or something.
Then I realize that no such thing has happened, and am disappointed. |
Ric Flair's "WOOOOOOO" whenever I hear the music outside of wrestling (commercial, TV, movie, etc.) and the use of the word gimmick, mark and offbeat shenanigans.... oh and Lance Storm pronunciation of Calgary, (dramatic pause), Alberta, Canada......
|
I've been doing the Del Rio hand wave thing for some reason.
|
Quote:
- 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. |
when I'm stretching my arms I end up doing the Triple H pose 99% of the time
|
WOW. Thought I was a "pretty cool guy" til I thought about this...

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. |
I pin my girlfriend to the mat all the time. :naughty:
|
TBF, most of that is done when drunk.

I actually just did one... well I let the dogs out back and I will be damned my wife and son would not tap for nothing.. oh well time to work out...
|
I've taken "That's how I roll" from Christian a few years ago.
Much like few other people here I've started to use "Really" I'll do Randy Orton's pose from time to time (arms in the air, head at an angle) I'm dying to use the phrase "You wear your cowardice well" in an argument. |
I elbow drop couches a lot. Like, if the whole couch is free, instead of just sitting down, I'll gear up, tap my elbow, and drop that elbow right onto the couch's FACE.
|
Not even bull shitting, before I leave work everyday, I go around to all my employees and do the Wolfpack hand signal kiss thing.
|
I tag in & out when it's time to switch shifts with someone.
|
We have old folding chairs in our break room. When cleaning, I fold them and set them aside. Now and then, I'll grab one and yell "HEEL TURN!" and pretend to brain someone with it.
And this, pretty much any time I enter any room, anywhere. Especially bars. <iframe width="420" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/yQ5rtUJGp74" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
I have caught myself recently saying "Really" continuously when people talk to me about some things...and even going as far as mimic the same way Miz pronounces it...
|
Whenever I have a conversation with my dad, I give him the What? cause he's always reminded me of Stone Cold. He even won a contest to go to RAW for sounding like him.
At nights when I go out to have a smoke, I walk down the street playing Cult of Personality and throw my arms out in Punk fashion. I also wrist roll. My friends and I in passing will chop each other and give out a WOOOOOO |
Pretty much everyday I grab the sock that's been in my pants and put it on my hand and put it in someones mouth. That's how we roll in my family.
|
I use the excuse of I'm just being a heel. I also use Punks straight edge messiah schtick. and he got got

I use to do the "It Doesn't Matter!" thing back when he was doing it in 2000 or something.
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. I just say "really?" after someone tells me something without knowing it:lol: |
Flipping people off
|
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. |

Whoa, never even occurred to me. Gonna give it a try.
|
I drive drunk, blow 0.6, then deny it.
I piss all over the company I work for on facebook then claim my account was hacked. When I own my own business I will start the "kiss my ass " club |
I do more Joe rogan podcast mannerisms now...I've matured:shifty:

Yeah, I use "no sell"/"selling" a fair bit. Often to describe the actions of an "injured" soccer player. Also, gimmick come up a bit too. And "bro" is being used heavily right now.
And I find myself doing the Hogan poses fairly often. |
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. |
So you wake up in the morning feeling just like Orton?
|
yes, yes I do...and before you ask, I have a wife and a girlfriend, but my wife isn't home often as she's running for political office, and the girlfriend is really more of a work then anything serious, lol
|
I post suicide notes and then claim it was part of my gimmick.

Fella, Really?, That's the bottom line (mostly toward my son when he gets lippy)
|
I say the really thing a lot. I have Cult Of Personality as a ringtone. I slip in wrestling phrases into meetings and important phone calls at work.
One girl gets it at my place. Most of the others don't. Which makes it better. For me. |
I am doing well in a game or something, I will often tell people "You lookin' at the real deal now!"
|
I play the nexus theme when around a certain group of friends and we all raise our arm up and look real serious.
We start talking like Wade Barrett too :lol: |
Forgot like the biggest thing I do. Probably more than once a day I use the phrase "INDEEEED"
Been doing it for so long, that it has become "regular" to me, and not "doing something from wrestling". |
Whenever I'm watching a movie with my girlfriend or family and there's a fight in which someone goes through a table, I always scream "OH MY GOD!"
I miss Joey Styles. |
|
I whip off my jacket or shirt and start elbow dropping it and wooing.

Also, sometimes I like to give my vacuum cleaner a Scott Hall like "punch" every now and then.
|
My old lady gives me the bronco buster

I do the Really? thing alot. Every once in awhile I'll do the Hogan ear or sungod poses in the gym. I also do the Scott Hall "glide" when I'm walking or double arm point to someone when they asked "who's (blank)" |
I often do the Mr. Perfect gum swat.
