Leaked Notes For WWE Announcers; Words Vince McMahon Doesn’t Want Used

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer is reporting that Vince McMahon may have banned announcers from using term “backbreaker.” The move wasn’t called when Sheamus used his Irish Curse backbreaker on last night’s Raw and if the term isn’t used going forward the call likely come from McMahon not to use it.

The term had been previously banned on WWE television by McMahon.

It’s unknown why it may have been pulled this time round but it may have something to do with WWE’s TV-PG rating or recent injury lawsuits.

After the news above, an extensive list of rules for WWE announcers leaked on Reddit which have reportedly been directed by Vince McMahon to the likes of Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, Booker T, JBL and just about anybody who has wore a headset on WWE programming dating back as far as 2008.

It’s unclear whether or not the list is legit, but it certainly feels it might well be. The notes included banned terms, correct ways to address WWE viewers and how announcers should behave while they’re on the air.
