DDT
 
Actually, what do the letters DDT stand for?

Thought I'll ask since it's been bugging me for ages.

"dichloro diphenyl trichloroethane

A colorless contact insecticide, C14H9Cl5, toxic to humans and animals when swallowed or absorbed through the skin. It has been banned in the United States for most uses since 1972."


From dictionary.com :D

While he was using the move, Jake Roberts said it stood for
"Damien's Dinner Time" - but that was just a name given to
a move by / for a character (for ex. Goldust's "Curtain Call", Faarooq's "Dominator" or X-Pac's "X-Factor").

As far as I know, legitimately, it doesn't stand for anything
(wrestling wise)...

I think it stands for

Devastating Dud Delivery...

Well...if you are Goldberg, Hardcore Holly, Kevin Nash, Brutus Beefcake...the list goes ON AND ON AND ON

Here is your answer,

What does DDT stand for?

Ok, I'll make this short and sweet. DDT for wrestling stands for nothing. Although it comes from the biological term Dichlor-Diphenyl-Trichoroethane. Now people often get confused with Jake the Snake's DDT. Jake Roberts named his DDT "Damien's Dinner Time", but this was only to fit his Jake "The Snake" character, which by the way came up with the name a while after he started doing the move. But like I said, it doesn't stand for anything in wrestling.

Did you answer that,or copy and paste it from somewhere? If you
did copy it,where did you get it from? Are they an old-school site?
