list wrestling terms you never hear anymore
 

in todays WWE what do you never hear that you used to??



"collar and elbow tie up"

Inside cradle.

Tomahawk Chop

baaaaaaaaaaaaaack body drop

Pearl Harbour Job
Catch as Catch can

My personal fav:

TOTAL ELIMINAAAAAAAAATION!!!!
:D

"... And NEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW..."

Gusher/Crimson Mask

AUSTIN! BAW GAWD, LOOK AT THE CARNAGE, HE'S BUSTED WIDE OPEN, THAT SON OF A BITCH BUSTED AUSTIN WIDE OPEN!! HE HAS DONNED THE PROVERBIAL CRIMSON MASK!!!

Remember back in the day when they used to imply that the wrestlers were wrestling for money and the winner would get the bigger purse

Solar Plexus and Sternum

Although I could be wrong on that...

Prett sure they do in ROH, but it just makes it seem even more small time

"He's broken in half"

"WILL SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH!"

"wrestler"

JR tried bringing it back, he was in favour of reintroducing announced time limits as well, something else you don't get anymore.

Occipital protuberance

Jeff jar..oh wait

"Wrestling".

Also, I still miss hearing "The World Wrestling Federation".

Do they say "squared circle" anymore?

fans

I don't care about anything else. Wrestling needs this back!

Also Vince McMahon's growling at the start of a show..."WELCOME EVERY-WAAAAAAAAAN!" :D

I think it slips out on occasion, Regal's said a couple of times on NXT I'm sure.

Pier 6 brawl
Hanging from the rafters

Gorilla Monsoon.

"Going to the pay window (winddah), Baby "

Puppies.

Steel Cage Death Match

A lot of these just seem like stuff JR used to say.

They are.

VAM PYRO!!!! VAM PYRO!!!! VAM PYRO!!!!

Wrestling


Which saddens me because. I take this sport very seriously.

Pretty much anything JR said.

Havent heard Rock call anyone a jabroni since he came back.

Crippler Crossface.

Any Suplex name that isn't a vertical suplex or an "inverted" suplex.

Reverse cresent kick

Lariat.

chico santana

Kind of both amuses and saddens me to hear commentators not of the "old school" mindset calling moves.

No move ever gets a proper name any more, it's always a "modified-name-of-well-known-move-it-kinda-looks-vaguely-like"

Either that or a "variation of"

Pier 6 brawl

Y'know its mostly because Michael Cole is who he is that we don't hear these terms anymore

"Piledriver"

"This next match is set for one fall and has a fifteen minute time limit."

I want to see a lot of these come back.

parts unknown

and i know it happens but do ring announcers ever say "currently in the ring" anymore?

They used to tell you who the refs were and even the doctor at ringside and also the time keeper.

And tonight, selling beer and section 32-B, the infamous Leonard McCallum!

:lol:

Rings of Saturn :shifty:

Vampiro! Vampiro! Vampiro!

For some reason I am blanking on the term "Irish Whip". I think nowadays Cole is just all "he sends him into the ropes/turnbuckles!"

I am probably wrong and they actually say it all the time.

Going Bananas!

ham and egger

Also "Humanoids"

1. Atomic Drop

2. "Oh would you stop!"

3. Geeksters

4. Pukesters

"fans, this will be the greatest night in the history of our sport"

"This match will be worth the price of admission alone"

How much does this fella weigh??

Brother!!!! (maybe Hogan still says it, but majority of the time he's on TV I DVR Foreward through it)

Well, I got a mustache. That's all Hogan really had going for him right?

BAAAAAHHH GAAAAWWD!



STONE COLD! STONE COLD! STONE COLD!


STUNNER!!!!

Brother and Jack in full effect still. Sadly enough

cuttin and struttin

this is main event anywhere in the country/world

working on those lateral colaterals

Jesse "The Body" Ventura said that one :D Also used to call Tito's finisher "The Flying Burrito", although I remember hearing Heenan say that often enough as well.

Those were the days. :(

Those delightfully racist days.

Judging by Raw those days are back!

You and most of the rest of the world needs to learn what the word "racist" actually means.

yessssssssssss

Flair used to make racist remarks about his opponents as well waaaay back in the day. There's a story in his book about him calling Rufus Jones "Kunta Kinte" from Roots during promos...if that happened today it would be a PR disaster. :lol:

Manager

"Right in the kisser" Monsoon was the best!

Foreign object

DOUBLE NOGGIN KNOCKER!

Stop whining, those were the best days of announcing in wrestling history. J.R. and The King were great, but nothing really matches the combinations of Jesse Ventura, Gorilla Monsoon, Bobby Heenan, and sometimes even Vince McMahon back then.

Toothless Aggression

"the wrong part of town"

PINATA! PINATA! PINATA!

Wrestling/Wrestler

Will you stop/be serious.

We'll keep the tape machines rolling folks!

Solar Plexus

"northern lights suplex"

"international object"

D O double G and K-Kwik Gettin Rowdy

He hit his nephew with a burrito

"he got a bicycle"

World Title and belt

Call the hotline!

Vince - " 10 more seconds until someone else joins the fray".

WE'RE OUTTA TIMEITS'SSTINGHERECOMESSTING

"Puppies!!!"
