Abortion (or abort)
To discontinue a feud, angle, or "gimmick" suddenly, usually without explanation or due to a lack of fan interest. This is an older term, not generally used today because of its objectionable basis

Blind
when a referee has his back turned while the other side is cheating. Usually done by heels in order to gain the advantage in a match.
Blind tag
a tag made in a tag team match where the wrestler on the apron, tags his partner unbeknownst to him or without his consent. It can also refer to such a tag where the tagger's opponent is unaware a tag has occurred, leaving him open to a blind-side attack. Most often occurs when the partner in the ring is thrown against the ropes or backed into their own corner.
Blow off
the final match in a feud. While the involved wrestlers often move onto new feuds, sometimes it is the final match in the promotion for one or more of the wrestlers.
Blow Up
to become cardiovascularly exhausted during a match.
Blown spot or botched spot
a spot that does not go as planned.
Blown Up
Out of breath, lacking the cardiovascular endurance to keep up in a match at the pace it has been going

Call
when one wrestler instructs the other of what is going to happen in the match.

Chemistry
when two wrestlers work well together by pulling off each others moves well and telling the story well to the audience.

Closet champion
a current titleholder (usually a heel) who ducks top-flight competition, cheats to win (often by managerial interference), and—when forced to wrestle good opponents—deliberately causes himself to be disqualified (since titles often do not change hands by disqualification) to retain his title

Is a "Journeyman" a jobber with a gimmick (i.e. Brooklyn Brawler)? Jericho used it to describe the Job he was offerred by WWF back in the mid-90s.

"Smarks" are generally looked down on by wrestlers as well as other wrestling fans for supposed inability to suspend their disbelief


Surely a smark is someone who is such a big mark for wrestling, they absolutely have to know everything about that. It pisses me off that wrestlers would look down on us, as their hardcore audience. We stick with their company for as long as we can stomach it, not like the fair-weather marks. I'm talking to you, James Storm, arsehole!

Rasslin' refers to a southern style of professional wrestling which emphasizes Kayfabe and stiffness, with fewer squash matches and generally longer feuds. It was synonymous with the NWA-affiliated promotions
