I notice Cena, Orton, and Punk doing it a lot.. Nobody else currently.
I love catching it and fine myself looking for it every match now. I have never seen Kane doing it..
Can we post videos of the occurence?

Cena is crazy when it comes to it, and it's become a big thing with botchamania. On the plus side, Cena is definitely a ring general, despite how loud he is.

It's probably because I don't pay close attention to wrestling much anymore, I just have it on while I do something else, but I barely notice it. Del Rio would be the exception though. You see his big mouth obviously flapping while giving instructions.
Best one though. JEEEEFFFF! JEEFFFFF! GODDAMNIT JEFF.

I really think it's more obvious these days because of more (and better) microphones.
I know there are still sometimes where the call is so loud that it wouldn't matter if there were no microphones, but I think the mic's are a big part.

The ones that bother me are when Jericho and Punk do them, and they get their heads right up to the opponents ear. I cannot hear what they're saying, but I can tell they are going over the next set of moves. Takes me right out of the match.

I notice it a lot too but hey, its wrestling brother. Also, when you do an irish whip into the corner or just normally in WWE '13 it looks like the dude is talking into the other guys ear

I don't really notice enough for it to take me out of the match. I'll see them talking but never really enough to focus on it.

I've noticed it with Cena more than anyone TBH. Although at this point, with some people, he's probably taken on the role of the veteran who leads the match.

I just a saw great example I had never heard before on a YT clip.
At the Royal Rumble, Trips was about to toss Brian Kendrick over when Kendrick when through the the second ropes instead (and clung on). Kendrick goes, "I know I f***ed up," and then Trips swings him around and throws him over the top on the other side.

Another Rumble one I like is from the 2000 street fight between Hunter and Cactus Jack I think Cactus developed that verbal rambling grunting to help cover spot-calling but one shines out clear during the match.
"Aha. Asaba. Asa. Knee. The left knee." *gets kicked in the left knee, goes down* "GRAAAGAHAGAHAH!"

They should just have their own carny language to call spots.
Or talk like Jodie Foster in 'Nell'.

I still think Rock was inviting Cena to do drugs or something. He sounded so damn happy when he said that.

It's never bothered me. In fact I sometimes quite like it. On another note, It's not spot calling so much as mild kayfabe breaking, I always like it when you see two wrestlers subtly congratulate each other after a match or check the other is OK.
There is a good example after the match at WrestleMania 28 between Jericho and Punk. After Punk won Jericho sort of grabbed his hair in an affectionate way as if to say well done. That kind of thing always reminds me of Ric Flair's Hall of Fame speech when he said about how he would say something like "we got'em!" to Ricky Steamboat after their matches as they were laying in the ring.
Also I am pretty sure I noticed Punk and Rock grab hands after their botched table spot at Royal Rumble. Like they were checking everything was OK.
