I picked Sports Entertainment, but, the real answer is the total overuse of RUTHLESS AGGRESSION a few years back. True, but I gotta give the E credit on that one, they seemed to realize it got annoying relatively quickly and mostly dropped it. |

It seems every week somebody is "Overcoming the Odds", If not Cena that Triple H or somebody else.
and yes i wish they would stick a Pin under every Seat in the Arena that go's up whenever "WHAT?" is Mentioned.

It used to be the King yelling "Puppies" a million times every time a female wrestler or announcer came out... however, they've cut back on the usage of it lately.

I'm going to have to go with "What?", because "sports entertainment" to me covers all wrestling anywhere.

You forgot:
"No one has ever manhandled ____ like this before"
or
"Wrestlemania ___ is set to be/has been the greatest wrestlemania of all time"
or
"Everybody knows" (used by mostly every heel ever, especially Hogan in his heel phase, beginning or during a promo)

What is the finite definition to sports entertainment? How is it valid to say "I'm the best sports entertainer in the WWE today"? Does sports entertainment have to do with being able to pin someone down for 3 seconds, or how well one entertains while doing a sport. It's a way to remind you it's fixed without admitting it outright. |

"What!" is the worst thing ever. I blame "What!" for the fact that we never see truly great promos anymore, and interviews are reduced to saying a catchphrase every week.

Bingo! Even Joey Styles says it now! It's a shame he's become a Michael Cole clone |

I always laughed when old heels used to start with "let me tell ya something..." - well - aren't you going to already?
Something that's really bugged me recently has been "woah." Like, interrupting someone's speech with "woah woah woah woah." There's a select few that do it, but the biggest culprit is Rey Mysterio, who seems to think it gives him some sort of "edge". Which, of course, it doesn't.

It used to be the King yelling "Puppies" a million times every time a female wrestler or announcer came out... however, they've cut back on the usage of it lately. Jericho vs Y2J, WMXIX: King: "I can't believe that they're starting this match with wrestling holds!" JR clearly pissed at King: "It's a wrestling match! Of course they're going to wrestle! What do you expect them to do? Show their puppies?" Not the exact quote, but you get my drift. |

sports entertainment.
it was a good little description at first, but now it's just annoying. like when gregory helms had the ring announcers call him the "longest reigning champion in sports entertainment". exactly what does "sports entertainment" cover? wrestling and...uh...battledome?

Sports entertainment. It just always seems so awkward, like a soap opera referring to itself as a soap opera. It's an odd breaking of the fourth wall, they should just call it pro-wrestling.
