Do you know these WRESTLING TERMS?

[@iHeartDash]

John needs a mic stand badly

[@pepperony3382]

Champ gets the stand

[@xavierdtd]

they also need to switch the sides of the couch they sit on

[@EdwardSturdy]

Why did they change set?

Lmao right

[@happyslapsgiving5421]

In Ricochet's last match on Monday, they said "hospital". It was just a Vince thing.

[@IsriBear]

They've been using that for a while, just like other "banned" words such as "wrestling", for example

[@justinwearn620]

Fun Fact: Per Meltzer, marks/fans would visit hospitals looking for the wrestlers, so they had to say Local Medical Facility to not bug the hospital and staff

[@kaieastwood3373]

Yeah the most notable incident came with the Shawn Micheals Concussion Angle (from a Owen Hart Enzigiri) they did after the syracuse incident where he got shoot hurt by beaten up outside a club.

[@IAmFromTheYear]

This might be true... but it doesn't make sense. A "Local Medical Facility" is a "Hospital". This wouldn't deter any hardcore fans from checking a hospital. If this is some attempted deterrence, then it's not very good. Either say "private medical facility" or simply act as though WWE has their own internal medical facility without the need to send injured wrestlers someplace else.

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

Fun fact: old man vince liked to come up with stupid terms that no one would ever use.

[@SteanPP]

This is the reason I've always known

[@whackedoutwrestlingpodcast1404]

@@IAmFromTheYearA clinic or a doctor's office is ALSO a "Local Medical Facility", and while there's usually only one hospital in town, there's many clinics in town and likely hundreds of doctor's offices- meaning there's far more plausible deniability that any given "one" is the place they sent the wrestler to in kayfabe (and thus the place to swarm with calls.)

[@Marques_22]

So apparently, it was Vince McMahon's decision to ban the word "hospital", because he said then fans would try and call the local hospitals to get updates on the condition of a particular wrestler who was kayfabe transported there

[@ThePunk01]

Which they have done

[@jfdrac]

THE thing is this did not change anything. It just show how out of touch Vince was...If a fan was so included they would still call the hospital as what other local medical facility are they going to think of...free clinic? Pet hospital?

[@mattevans1643]

​@@jfdracit has 2 purposes. When they Say local facility it implies it's a kayfabe injury and not to be taken seriously. When Lawler had his heart attack, michael cole never once said local medical facility. Showing that it was serious and not part of a story line.

[@jfdrac]

@@mattevans1643 That may be true but the problem with that logic is you are assuming the people who make these calls are logical...which clealry they are not

[@ijrlij]

Michael Cole said hospital on raw with ricochet and the week before Logan called his US title a belt, so Vince’s banned words are out the window apparently.

[@leebrennan5790]

One person who always uses the term potato is Stone Cold 😂. I remember him talking about a match he had during Big Show's first year, where Austin punched him too hard and Show gave him a receipt. He was like "I potatoed the hell out of show" lol

[@vct454]

One of my favorite uses was him talking to Shane about Undertaker, and he says something like "now here's a set of hands responsible for more potatoes than the fields of Idaho."

[@joelandreijose5916]

Hey, thanks for doing my quiz guys! I tried to go a little easy on you at the start, then I decided "Ah, let's just start screwing with them" for the last few. BTW, some of these are quite old school, like potato. I also sent in a few more quizzes in the past, so hope you get to them

[@PhilB88]

I'm praying for you on this. I did the last one and Jesus, the comments were "oh this term is wrong"

[@joelandreijose5916]

@@PhilB88 Hey man, I got people complaining about 'job' on the defense that these particular wrestlers aren't 'jobbers.' Yes, they're related, but contextually, they're very different. And if they still wanna complain, they can go ahead and rewrite the Wikipedia glossary for all I care if they want to prove themselves right

[@ihebabidi1205]

it was a fun quiz

[@haroldmc9021]

Yeah bro you fucked me over with Potato. Fun quiz tho, I felt smart

[@KarlTheCatto]

Thank you for the wonderful quiz!

[@raphaeljackson7]

One reason they can not say "hospital" is because viewers would be susceptible to try and see the wrestler at nearby hospitals of the events.

[@_brittani]

My boyfriend and I love Damian Priest and though we're fully prepared for him to drop it to Drew this weekend, John saying Priest for transitional champ literally made my boyfriend say, "Whoa, f*ck you 😢" out loud 😂😂 we got over it tho lmao.

[@HenryT316]

I have a feeling you'll be happy at Clash, I got a gut feeling Punk is going to screw Drew one more time 😂

[@theblindcaboose]

@@HenryT316 I agree completely. Drew has been killing it, aside from when they make him look like an idiot for Punk, but it makes way too much sense to have Punk screw him again. Maybe he'll get Money in the Bank...

[@dionshare7103]

Damien Priest does actually look good as champion. I'll admit that. But I think you have to know that Drew McIntyre is likely to win this weekend unless CM Punk does get involved.

[@dionshare7103]

But then I don't think it would be bad if Damien keeps the belt and he's the one to fight Gunther at SummerSlam.

Nah, if they're not at the table, switching things up makes this feel fun and different.

Honestly this kinda makes sense since Dante ALWAYS says his answers first followed by John. That’s just me though 🤷‍♂️

For the wager I immediatly said Marty Jannety as a joke. Then it turned to be the actual answer.

[@raelynb1618]

same lmao

[@nickstanton6021]

Janetty or stevie rayed

[@SupraViperhead]

Well there is no other term for it. Which is a shame because Marty was actually the better wrestler of the two, he just wasn't as good of an entertainer and he was too hooked on drugs.

[@jared_mintie]

Could "Angle" also be "Keyfabe"?

[@blakehelms7430]

On the wager I didn’t know what it was called but Marty Jannetty was the person I thought of as an example.😂😂

[@SteanPP]

That was a fun quiz. Knew most of them could the wording made me not know then would see the answer and go aww right

"Transitional Champion, aka Damien Preist. We're not being mean, we're just being right." That comment aged like milk.

[@zeospark9715]

If you want a particular funny moment of a rib, back on an episode of WWE Superstars, William Regal in his home country was about to face Daniel Bryan (his main student at the time). However, Bryan decided to have a little fun against his mentor by getting the people in the back to play the theme song for Regal's original gimmick, Man's Man. Regal, despite him trying to be the serious heel, could not help but laugh his ass off at this. Good times lol

[@KegOfMeat]

Maven told a story on his video with Mace and Mansoor of a rib Al Snow played on him. He put a giant dildo in Maven’s bag so when the airport staff opened it up they laughed and Maven only found out what it was when he got to his hotel room.

[@DPWroteIt]

Not using “hospital” was a Vince thing

[@thehall0fgamer936]

Can you guys switch spots back? Idk about anyone else but it’s freaking my mom and I out that you’re in the wrong sides. Thanks lol.

[@MrXsanityGaming]

They probably don't say hospital so a bunch of fans don't show up trying to see if the wrestler is there or not. I could also be completely wrong...

[@PJErvin]

Thought it was hilarious that both of you included the word “local” before medical facility. And then so did the quiz. Also the spot one could have been worded more clearly.

[@ActionJacksonForever]

Another term for a storyline is ‘Program’

[@joelandreijose5916]

Well somewhat. What Wikipedia calls a 'program' is the series of matches between wrestlers in a storyline or feud

[@RyanAcidhedzMurphy]

@@joelandreijose5916 While I normally don't have a problem with Wiki, as a long time viewer of Cornette, and other, shoots, I think I will go with how I've heard the terms used by the people who were actually in the business. An angle can refer to a whole storyline, or what happens in a single match. "Working a program" includes everything that happens. Getting Over, means getting the audience to like you. Getting a specific reaction, like cheering, is getting a pop. I never hear anyone refer to losing as "doing the job", unless it's a jobber. Actual talent are asked to "do the favors". Usually when talking about matches they say that they were told who was going over, and how it was going to happen.

[@kevbotchill]

I finally won one! Listening to Jim cornette for multiple hours every week for the last 5 years has finally paid off

[@ItzMilesDeep]

Is there a way to get Dante on the other side of the couch? That would fix the Mic problem. Probably not able to 😂

[@bsb6651]

The Marty jenety is wild!!😮

[@PlunkSama]

If you don't like squash, here's a tip! Go out and get a buttercup squash. Not butternut, buttercup. They're green and round and pretty squat. Take it, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, throw some butter in the middle, wrap your squash halves in plastic wrap, and throw them in the microwave for about 10 minutes. When it's done, let it sit for a few minutes to cool down, then scoop the insides into a bowl and add a small splash of milk, some more butter, salt, and pepper. Mix well. If it's watery, you used too much milk. It should be a semi-thick consistency. It's the only squash I like, and its quick, easy, and delicious.

[@TheJStale]

I liked hee silly haha Imagine someone like The Undertaker being like "So Paul Bearer pulled this hehe silly haha on me..."

[@kennethmanning9984]

The call it a local medical facility because if they say hospital fans will call hospital about wrestler instead it could be one of those emergency clinics

[@StarCitizenZero]

I think the question about crowd reaction, getting over or pop could be interchangeable because of the way the question was worded. Getting over is usually used in the sense that the wrestler has won over the crowd with their character and will be cheered for regularly. Pop is more of a temporary excitement by the crowd. Pop is also used when someone does something to make another wrestler laugh.

[@joelandreijose5916]

I can definitely see where you're coming from and I can't say I disagree. Although, again, I did get these definitions from Wikipedia and they may or may not be distinct with terms that have similar actions

[@ArcaneAnarchy]

I was thinking the same. "Achieving the desired reaction" is a pop. Getting over is more of a long-term reaction. And because of that reason, I'm giving myself the point. 😅

[@nickstanton6021]

A pop is usually a positive reaction for faces. getting over just means your character whether a face or Heel is getting the desired cheers or heat from the crowd

[@MrNobody91]

Tbh, Dante should've won this one. As many times as he's let John slide on answers that weren't really even necessarily close, but then John didn't let Dante slide here when he basically had the same answer just a lil diff word is wild tbh.

[@fluxuation87]

Its funny, I've had the complete opposite opinion. I've always felt that John lets Dante get away with answers that werent close. I was happy when they didnt give him the points for those two in this vid!

[@Blackhorselove1]

Horses that are still in training are also known as green! Didn’t realize it was also used in pro wrestling (maybe other sports that I’m not aware of?)

[@LivingWithSpinaBifida]

John sitting on the right side of the screen really shook me for a moment 😂 im used to Dante sitting on the right side

[@tearsong8744]

Sweet potatoes and yams are actually not the same thing so no need to worry Dante 😂However I can understand the confusion because in the case of sweet potato casserole people often times will make it with yams instead of actual sweet potatoes.

[@friendlygiant2314]

There was a time they called RVD "spudfest" because he threw out so many potatoes in the ring

[@nolankuffner3573]

19 going into the wager (being 40 helped with the later ones 😂), 34 after. Saw the Jannetty angle on TV the day it was first broadcast, which is kinda cool. I missed spot (I said script, due to the word "series") 😭

[@Fire-Abyss]

Yams and Sweet Potatoes are 2 different vegetables and although darker Sweet Potatoes are often referred to as "Yams" in parts of the US/Canada they aren't even in same family of root vegetables. Yams (genus Dioscorea) belong to the Dioscoreaceae family while Sweet Potatoes (genus Ipomoea) themselves are part of the Convolvulaceae family aka Morning Glories

[@teamshades9022]

Also drew is not winning the title he will lose because if he does win he would beat Gunther at summerslam which is not happening so that’s why Damian is retaining just because they would not have Drew lose to Gunther right after winning the title the second time this year

[@TheTheveeus]

You guys really think Damien loses the title to Drew considering CM Punk (assuming he is going to be medically cleared) should face Drew at SummerSlam, specially since whoever is champion by Summerslam will defend the title vs Gunther! (His prize for winning KOTR)

[@FernandoGonzalez-hu3id]

I would argue that both "Angle" and "Spot" refer to very specific moments on a Storyline/Match, while the question talked about longer periods of time

[@joelandreijose5916]

Ok here it goes, sweet potatoes have orange skin but usually white to light orange flesh, yams have orange skin and orange flesh. Most people call yams sweet potatoes. If you like zucchini bread you are eating squash. Same with pumpkin pie, you're eating squash. Yellow squash and zucchini are really good diced and sauteed with olive oil and garlic.

[@antoniomarin9061]

What’s with the glitches?

[@zacharypotter6692]

The reason they didn't say "Hospital" "Title Shot" or other banned lingo was simply because Vince didn't like how they sounded iirc

[@TheRicFactor]

I don't mind the new setup but is Dante hurt? He's sitting there like he has a major back problem going on. If so get better soon, bud. Great quiz and great vid as always!

[@mattevans1643]

They don't say hospital because saying hospital implies that it's it a real issue, and something serious is actually happening. Like when Lawler had his heart attack, micheal cole never once said the local medical facility, he said he's actually recieving and being transferred to the hospital. When they say Local Medical facility it lessen the impact, where as hospital is serious.

[@darebrained]

The hospital stuff was a Vince thing. His reasoning was for once that fans wouldn't bother hospitals about wrestlers who - apparently - have been transported there and also because Vince thought it makes his wrestlers look weak.

[@matthewmaccabe4171]

they say 'local medical facility' so that fans don't go to the local hospital to check on wrestlers's kayfabe injuries cos they're obviously not actually going to be there so keep it vague with 'local medical facility'

[@daveglander1]

Apparently they were warned to stop using the term hospital, because fans would turn up at a local one looking for a kayfabe injured wrestler, or they would constantly phone the hospital.
