This is why refs and commentary should be eligible for HOF it's everyone working together to put on a show and some of the refs taking a bump for the fans is their dedication to the craft

Sad that the historical carnival wrestling culture has almost died out, even the remnants of jargon. The business has probably the most fascinating origins of any sport/performance genre, and almost no one is still alive who knows about it, even the kids in the ring.

Wow Vince truly was a tyrant not only was he screaming into the announcers ear piece telling them what to say but he did the same thing with the referees I don't understand the need to countdown every single minute I can understand telling the referees they have 5 minutes 2 minutes etc but every minute they do a countdown?? That's insane

Tbf I do wonder how well Chioda can actually speak it since he only ever repeatedly gave the same examples. Sure minute counts are one of the most important things he'll say to a talent but it's hardly the only thing.

I broke into the business (just indies) in 2004. I spoke carny but very few of my peers did. I imagine it’s almost totally gone by now. Never once did I use it to call a spot. Just while talking business at the after party or something like that.
