The way Wrestlezone wrote reported it, which they referenced Meltzer, they pointed out that Cole called it a "knee to the spine." To me that just makes it sound like Cole just called it that as Cole sometimes calls a move by a different name or miscalls it. Seems pretty highly speculatory at this point.

The name itself is a small penis reference, the whole move should just get renamed.

Instead of banning it, can't we just have everyone scream when it is said?

And watch this getting beaten into the ground by folks here and get treated as shocking when mentioned on tv like the words "wrestling", "ass", and "bitch". I look forward to the day when everyone loses their minds over the word "backbreaker"

The name itself is a small penis reference Which I find funny, since the self-proclaimed "Genetic Jackhammer" is of Irish descent. Cole: So what do we refer to it as, Vince? Vince: Just call it a maneuver. Worked for me.

It's probably not Vince himself.
More likely some random big money sponsor has an issue with it for whatever reason and applies pressure for it not to be used.
People don't realise how much say sponsors and donors have in capitalist enterprises.
Could also be the network, but I doubt USA care considering they air law & order right before Raw.
It's speculation of course on my part but I see this as 100000 times more likely than Vince banning random words he doesn't like. I also reckon this is the same reason Seth Rollins no longer does the curbstop and why they suddenly decided not to go down the route they were originally going down with the Wyatt and Reigns storylines and not even acknowledging the original direction this week

Vince: "Listen....I don't want to hear the word "clothesline" anymore"

*someone clotheslines someone*
Cole: "He calls that the Straight Arm Smash!!!!"
JBL: "HAHAHAHA MAGGLE.....WE GOT A FLYIN' STRAIGHT ARM!!!!"

I'm pretty sure Michael Cole called a backbreaker in the Cesaro-Cena match last night...

Vince is just pissed that he can't get any commentator to use the phrase "WhataManeuver", so he's going to keep banning words until they're forced to use it.

I would love to peak into Vince's mind just once, has to be fascinating to see how he views things.

It's slang for ED, they made the right move. Surprised they ever called it that.
